Out of this world: Kendall Street Company turns up the heat with a midsummer concert celebrating its newly released “pop-ambient space opera,” The Year the Earth Stood Still: Ninurta. The group’s blend of generous garage band energy and Americana soul meanders through waves of esoteric ambiance, then quickly turns into mind-melting psychedelia backed by a jazzy groove. Prog-metal outfit Seleus opens the show.
Saturday 7/3, $15-20, 5pm. IX Art Park, 522 Second St. SE, ixartpark.org.
