Browse our full NYC show calendar for all of tonight’s shows. Here are some highlights…

Danny Brown @ Rough Trade
Shapeshifting rapper Danny Brown, whose Old LP is one of the best rap albums of the year, just played two big shows at Terminal 5 opening for Sleigh Bells, but tonight he does something much more intimate with this in-store at Rough Trade

Temples, Spires @ Union Pool
While their debut album won’t be out until early 2014, UK psych pop band Temples come armed with a string of catchy singles, jangly 12-string guitars and Mark Bolan haircuts. Tonight’s show is with Brooklyn’s Spires whose sound is as well-matched to Temples as their name.

Cults, Sacco, Mood Rings @ Webster Hall
With their new album, Static, out now, Cults further their danceable indiepop sound. This tour is with Atlanta’s superior dreampop band Mood Rings who are worth showing up early for.

Rey Pila, Mainland, Silverbird @ Baby’s All Right
Mexico City’s Rey Pila make melodic, synth-heavy rock. Their on their way to Europe for a tour with Albert Hammond Jr. but beforehand are stopping in NYC for two shows, this being the first.

Rittz, Snow Tha Product, Jarren Benton @ SOB’s
Fast-talking dirty south rapper Rittz, known for collaborations with Big K.R.I.T., Yelawolf, and others, returns to NYC for this SOB’s show tonight.

Van Morrison @ Beacon Theater
Jazz-pop/folk rock legend released his well-received new album, Born to Sing: No Plan B, earlier this year, garnering favorable comparisons to his 1970 classic Moondance. His second of two NYC shows this time through brings him to the tony Beacon Theater, certainly a great place to see someone of Morrison’s stature.

Alvvays, Jackie, Boytoy, No Kill @ Glasslands
Toronto group Alvvays is the project from Molly Rankin who is decended from Canadian folk royalty and made a record under her own name a couple years ago. Despite Rankin’s family background, Alvvays make wistful, jangly, Brit-tinged indiepop.

Julie Klausner @ Joe’s Pub
Writer/comedian Julie Klausner is in the midst of her 5-night TOO GAY FOR BROOKLYN run at Joe’s Pub, where she promises to “sing some goddamn songs.” This is the final night.
