John Hiatt and the Jerry Douglas Band
From the opening notes of the swampy rockabilly dobro on “Long Black Electric Cadillac,†it’s evident that masterful singer-songwriter Hiatt and dobro master Douglas are a simpatico match. Their 2021 album “Leftover Feelings” is a roots, bluegrassy, ​​and southerly collection of travel, missed opportunities and a brother’s suicide. (7:30 p.m. Thu. Pantages Theater, 710 Hennepin Av.

JB
Leaflets
After some major changes in his life which he describes as a ‘break with myself’, St. Paul singer / songwriter Martin Devaney enlisted a new guitar and a new stage nickname to forge a new musical direction away from the twangy Americana. The charming lo-fi but richly melodic garage-folk of her debut LP Folios, “Dispatch”, echoes Elliott Smith and Robyn Hitchcock with a warmth and sense of resilience unique to Minnesota. Niki Beverly’s new band Bev opens the launch party. (9 p.m. Saturday, Aster Café, 125 SE. Main St., Mpls., $ 15, astercafe.com)
