RODNEY CROWELL AND EMMYLOU HARRIS/RICHARD THOMPSON Is it a double- or a triple-bill? Whatever: You’ll get the extraordinary songs and guitar work of a living legend (touring electric with his trio in support of his latest record), and a pair of country/Americana titans who, after working with each other in the ’70s when Crowell was a member of Harris’s fabled Hot Band, are together again. March 23, 7:30 p.m. Tickets: $38-$63.50. Orpheum Theatre. 800-345-7000, www.ticketmaster.com Stuart Munro

POP & ROCK

March 21, 8 p.m. Tickets: $25. Paradise Rock Club. 800-745-3000, www.ticketmaster.com

SKY FERREIRA With a beat as come-hither as the glances she cast in the accompanying video, this singer from Los Angeles struck gold on last year’s “Everything Is Embarrassing,” the centerpiece on an EP that showed a lot of promise. Ferreira shares the bill with How to Dress Well, the stage name of ghostly R&B singer Tom Krell. March 24, 9 p.m. Tickets: $13. Brighton Music Hall. 800-745-3000, www.ticketmaster.com

NICK CAVE & THE BAD SEEDS Back with the Bad Seeds, Cave sounds like he’s growing into the mold of Leonard Cohen on his haunted new album, “Push the Sky Away.” Brooding, romantic, brash — in other words, classic Nick Cave.

FOLK, WORLD & COUNTRY

MOUNT MORIAH Mount Moriah play an insinuating brand of alt-country — intense, moody, electric, redolent of a classic sound and manifestly something new, and featuring the mesmerizing vocals of cofounder Heather McEntire. The band is touring behind its excellent new record, “Miracle Temple.” March 22, 8 p.m. Tickets: $12. Café 939 at Berklee. 617-747-2262, www.cafe939.com

FOR THE SAKE OF THE SONG: GRAM PARSONS If Gram Parsons were alive today, he’d be 66 years old. Would he have accumulated the sort of career that, say, Merle Haggard (a mere nine years his elder) has? Impossible to say, but 40 years after his untimely flame-out in the Mojave Desert, artists continue to offer tributes like this one, featuring Patrick Coman and the Lo-Fi Angels and two more local bands. March 24, 8:30 p.m. Tickets: $10. Johnny D's, Somerville. 888-777-8932, www.ticketweb.com

ROMEO SANTOS With the heady mix of bachata, hip-hop, and R&B that Anthony “Romeo” Santos, a cousin, and a pair of brothers concocted as the group Aventura, the Latin pop heartthrob made his mark almost everywhere but Anglo America. Now embarked on a solo career, Santos is hoping to change that. March 24, 8 p.m. Tickets: $40-$87. Agganis Arena. 800-345-7000, www.ticketmaster.com STUART MUNRO

CHARLES LLOYD NEW QUARTET The Memphis-born tenor saxophonist first achieved fame as a sort of Coltrane-lite, but since then has developed into an elder stateman who remains among the foremost lyrical players alive. His New Quartet features leading lights of later generations: pianist Jason Moran, bassist Reuben Rogers, and drummer Eric Harland. March 21, 8 p.m. Tickets: $40-$65. Sanders Theatre, Memorial Hall, Harvard University, 45 Quincy Street, Cambridge. 617-482-6661, www.celebrityseries.org
