Seattle’s refreshingly earnest neo-folkies The Head and the Heart continue to rock the world with their recent album, “Let’s Be Still,” as they’ve been anything but, appearing on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” and confirming a slot at this year’s Coachella festival.

They’re back home for two nights, with Rose Windows and La Luz opening Friday and the Moondoggies and Mikey and Matty kicking off the show Saturday.

Look here Saturday for Charles R. Cross’ review of the Friday show.
