Posted By on Sat, Jun 12, 2010 at 8:33 AM

Phoenix Fresh off their first Grammy award for Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix, and a No. 1 song, "1901," this year, French alt-rock quartet Phoenix will be in Charlotte – their last stop before Bonnaroo. After that, it's back overseas for yet another European leg of the seemingly endless tour they've been on since May 2009, before hopping back to the States for Lollapalooza in Chicago in August. $27.50-32.50, Road Runner Mobile Amphitheatre, www.livenation.com. (Mike McCray)

Tom Russell Don't simply peg him as a singer/songwriter. Russell's bluesy voice, folk and rock are blanketed with American roots music to be sure. And his fine wordplay permeates the crevasses of the mind and soul. But Russell is also an accomplished painter and book writer, and with 25 records in his catalog, penning songs for numerous singers, films and TV shows, he is a fully evolved American music treasure. $20, The Evening Muse, www.theeveningmuse.com. (Samir Shukla)

Temperance League If you've seen Bruce Hazel and the Volunteers before, don't assume that this was a simple name change for the same old band. Hazel and the guys have tied their laces tight and settled in for something a bit heavier. Hazel is still an outstanding front man with a penchant for lyrical storytelling. Add in David Kim on drums, Mark Lynch on bass, guitars by Shawn Lynch and Chad Wilson – what more can you ask for? With Trouble Walkers, Saint Solitude. $5, Snug Harbor, www.snugrock.com. (Jeff Hahne)
