Guitar and loop pedal virtuoso Dustin Wong (ex-Ponytail, Ecstatic Sunshine) stops Liz Berg's show on Monday, February 13th from 9-noon for another stellar live set of orchestrated, one-man symphonies. Dustin will delight and defy your ears with elegantly layered compositions from his forthcoming album, entitled "Dreams Say, View, Create, Shadow Leads" (Thrill Jockey). Catch him live on Jan 21st at 285 Kent Ave, or on Feb 3rd at Glasslands Gallery.

Live with Jeffrey Davison on Shrunken Planet Saturday, February 11th from 6-9 AM: The online buzz about Sharon Van Etten's new album, "Tramp" (release date February 7) has been pretty intense. A recent, electrifying show at Mercury Lounge, where Sharon and band played the record in its entirety proved that the excitement is most warranted. This morning, Sharon and bandmate, singer-songwriter Heather Woods Broderick, treat us to a rare acoustic set.
