Tonight in the foundation room at House of Blues, you can get the acoustic feels with Ben Jarrad of Ruckus, Clay Melton, and Sean Ramos.

The Ray Courtyard at Rice University will host a show from Houston's Days N Daze. There's something intriguing about how this group can tour the globe and hold every audience in the palm of their hands when they play.

Upstairs at White Oak Music Hall, L.A.'s Phoebe Bridgers will bring her beautiful sound to all who attend.

On Monday at Warehouse Live in the ballroom, Grace Vanderwaal will prove she's more than just a star from America's Got Talent.
