Here are some options for Tuesday:
Fitz & The Tantrums with Royal Teeth
Spotlight show • Neo-soul music will take the stage at The Depot, with Fitz & The Tantrums closing out the night with their Los Angeles-based soulful stylings. Noelle Scaggs, 32, shares lead-singing duties with Michael Fitzpatrick, a role that has expanded since she joined the band in 2008. "When we started working together, it was as a backup [singer]," she said in a phone interview. "I wasn’t really committed. Naturally, it’s been a progression. I’m not a backup singer." Opening act Royal Teeth’s Gary Larsen he said in an interview that the New Wave-influenced band grew a fan base by being centrally located between the hot spots of Baton Rouge, Lafayette and New Orleans. The "let the good times roll" spirit is innate to the band, Larsen said, and the members are focused on creating "positive music that feels good." Of course, you can expect to dance.
