Pokey LaFarge

Pokey LaFarge brings a good dose of old-time charm to his songwriting. Often bedecked in pinstripe suit and finely coiffed side part, LaFarge leads his anachronistic band through a great set whenever he comes to town. This is fun and bright music, and you can tell that new tunes like “Riot in the Streets” will give his show an even more danceable quality, if that’s what you’re looking for. He performs tonight at 8 at the Beachland Ballroom. Tickets cost $25.
