Tonight’s Concert Picks: LIGHTS at The TLA, Blonde Gang at PhilaMOCA’s Tuesday Tune-Out, Thee Nosebleeds at Kung Fu Necktie, Duncan Shiek at World Cafe Live, Jackie Paper at the North Star Bar

Toronto’s LIGHTS will take the stage at The TLA tonight.  Lights Poxleitner reached early success with a Best New Artist Juno Award in 2008 but hasn’t let the pressure of living up to expectations hold her back musically.  Her latest record, Siberia, is a step in the experimental direction and infuses dub-step drops with her usual pop-oriented melodies for a grittier final product.  LIGHTS performs alongside Arkells at tonight’s all-ages show.  Tickets are $15 and doors open at 7:00 p.m., more information here.  Below, watch LIGHTS’ latest video for “Timing is Everything.”
