As fall comes into full swing this week, we’re getting a really nice mix of interesting shows in with some especially noteworthy bands in the indie rock and folk realms. Starting with the more eccentric artists, there’s @ Le Poisson Rouge (tonight), @ Music Hall of Williamsburg (Wed), the triumphant return of the Rapture @ Webster Hall (Thurs), and Superhuman Happiness doing two nights at Zebulon in Williamsburg (Fri-Sat). For something eclectic but a bit more folk-oriented, there’s lots to choose from, including @ T5 (Thurs), Wilco @ Central Park (Thurs-Fri), @ the Williamsburg Waterfront (Sat), and @ Mercury Lounge (Sat-Sun). If the Indie Folk thing’s not your bag, there’s also plenty of dance-oriented jams with playing T5 and the return of at Brooklyn Bowl (both Saturday). >>>
