The Moss, Night Cap

Indie-rock act The Moss combines Hawaii vibes with Utah chill. Oahu serves as the origin story of lead singer Tyke James and guitarist Addison Sharp, who grew up on the island of Oahu as teens, serenading food truck customers before trading the beach for the Great Salt Lake. The band has something of a ’70s-throwback sound, undoubtedly influenced by the members’ love of post-Beatles George Harrison. A radiant optimism punctuates the group’s single “The Place That Makes Me Happy,” which became a staple of alternative airplay in 2023. $26, 8 p.m., Stable Hall, 307 Pearl Parkway, stablehall.com. — DC

Branford Marsalis Quartet

Branford Marsalis is a keeper of the flame for one of America’s enduring contributions to world culture: jazz. The New Orleans-born trumpeter has earned numerous accolades in his career, including three Grammies and a NEA designation as a “jazz master.” His work in film and theater has also garnered Emmy and Tony nominations. Marsalis is a musical treasure and his quartet performs traditional jazz at the highest level. $42, 8 p.m., Carver Community Cultural Center, 226 N. Hackberry St., thecarver.org. — Bill Baird
