Nick Waterhouse
May 1 at the Biltmore
There’s retro and then there’s retro. Nick Waterhouse’s canny blend of ’50s rock ’n’ roll and ’60s soul ought to console anyone who missed the JD McPherson show a few weeks back.

Seoul-based hip-hop trio Epik High comes to town bearing dope beats and enough English-language rhymes to spread its good vibes beyond Vancouver’s South Korean expat community.
