  • Imagine the sound of a sunset party on a yacht, where the champagne flows as freely as the beats. That’s Satin Jackets, the brainchild of German producer Tim Bernhardt. Catch him at Star Theater in July.

  • Regina Spektor has been blending classical piano chops with indie-pop whimsy since the 2000s. Get tickets to the Midsummer Daydream Tour at Revolution Hall in July.

  • Sparks is a 50-year-long art experiment in pop music that somehow keeps getting cooler. The sibling masterminds behind Sparks have been bending genres and blowing minds since the early ’70s. Don’t miss them at Revolution Hall in September.
