Concerts

Mount Kimbie, Daryl Hall & John Oates, Talib Kweli, and more of the best concerts in Miami this week, June 11 through 17.

Colombian singer Karol G played a six-song set that included hits such as “Ahora Me Llama,” “Mi Cama,” and “Pineapple.”

A crucial part of Rüfüs Du Sol’s charm is the uplifting quality of the music. Since the release of the Australian electronic trio’s first full-length album, Atlas, in 2014, it has forged ahead with a sound that’s as sweeping in emotion as in scope, enveloping listeners and concertgoers in immaculately produced soundscapes and dreamy vocals courtesy of guitarist Tyrone Lindqvist.

Berlin-based electronic artist Zoè Zanias, known simply as Zanias, believes music is what separates us from other animals. She spent much of her childhood trekking through the rainforest with her mother, a tropical biologist, and falling asleep to the sounds of the jungle. Beautiful though exotic bird songs, she says, lack a key element: rhythm.

Last night, Dua Lipa returned to Miami, to Bayfront Park, for the first time since last year, when she was in the Magic City to film the video for her breakout hit, “New Rules.”

The Pen & The Piano Tour hits Revolution Live this Friday.

Judging by its name, you might think Combichrist is a Sunday-morning church band. But then you hear those notes of super-aggro-industrial electronic music ripping through the air. It all becomes beautiful blasphemy built exclusively for raging like a maniac.

Just when you thought the pop-star wave of the past decade was on its way out, English singer and model Dua Lipa showed up with the virulently catchy breakup bop “New Rules” and ex-lover sendoff “IDGAF.” She’ll bring her single-lady sing-alongs and impeccable style to Bayfront Park this Tuesday evening. Prolific singer-songwriter Andrew McMahon will return to South Florida at Revolution Live this Friday, and Maroon 5 will hit the BB&T Center with its onslaught of slick hits Sunday.

Styles, who shot to international fame at the age of 16 with the boy band One Direction before launching his recent solo career, has spent the past eight years performing for stadiums of preteen and teenage girls.

In composition as well as curation, Nick León considers all of the angles. Although the Miami-based producer has always demonstrated a keen ear for involved and immersive soundscapes, his latest EP, Friday’s Totem, sees the artist boil down his preexisting techniques to a previously unheard degree.

As artists of the reggaeton and Latin-trap genres join the ranks at the top of the charts, alternative-Latin acts such as Monsieur Periné are garnering renewed attention in their own right.

For decades, Dave Daniels, the original owner of Little Haiti’s Churchill’s Pub, lived in a quaint house behind the bar. Just outside his window, live music wailed, drunken lovers humped on his washing machine, and petty fights raged. Daniels has moved on from his life in Lemon City. But his former abode will temporarily serve as a pop-up shop for work by Ahol Sniffs Glue. The artist is bringing his Cyber Trap Boutique from the internet to the real world. And in proper Miami fashion, he’s also bringing the party with his recognizable merchandise.

Some of the biggest Latin-music artists will hit South Florida stages this week. Enrique Iglesias, Ozuna, and Bad Bunny will all perform at the American Airlines Arena Saturday, Cuban reggaeton group Gente de Zona will play a hump-day show at the Fillmore Miami Beach, and Colombian ensemble Monsieur Periné will return to the North Beach Bandshell Sunday night. Whether your style is more Latinurbano or alterlatino, expect these artists to keep you dancing.

Shania Twain has learned the hard way that she needs to root for herself before the applause comes in.

Early last month, U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions made it a federal offense for immigrants to cross the American border where there are no checkpoints. That order gives the United States government the authority to remove children from their parents — the accused criminals — and keep them detained in separate facilities.

Musicians not named Adele make most of their money from touring, not singles and albums. But Josh Gabriel and Dave Dresden came up with a clever way to fund the 12 tracks on their latest album, The Only Road.

LGBTQ fans have long played a crucial role in the careers of pop stars, but artists have not always returned the favor. Tour mates Harry Styles and Kacey Musgraves are rewriting the rules about how queer communities and identities should be approached within the mainstream medium of pop music.

Dua Lipa is best known for last summer’s infectious breakout single “New Rules.” The song has thus far spent 43 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100, is a bona fide earworm, and is, frankly, solid relationship advice. Ignoring drunk phone calls from exes is always a good idea and one that so many of us fail to remember.

The project is very much a product of living in London — a claustrophobic city, in Edmund Kenny’s estimation, a place where it’s easy to feel faceless among the masses.

At home in the Bronx, the legendary pianist, bandleader, and composer Eddie Palmieri rewinds to childhood. He was born in 1936 on East 112th Street in New York City, where Spanish Harlem, or El Barrio, meets Central Harlem. Palmieri reminisces about playing stickball with his pals to the soundtrack of…

The subjects of Jose Boyer’s lyrics tend to emerge of their own volition while he’s working on a guitar or piano part.
