MAROON 5 & TRAIN It’s north versus south (as in California) in this double bill that should feature plenty of comic banter from M5 frontman and “The Voice’’ judge/mentor Adam Levine and the passel of ubiquitous radio hits both bands have amassed. Unlike the radio, however, Train will probably only play “Hey, Soul Sister’’ once. Scheduled opener Gavin DeGraw will not make it as he is recovering from an assault earlier this week in New York City. Aug. 13, 7 p.m. Tickets: $17.50-$85.75. Comcast Center. 800-745-3000. www.livenation.com
MY MORNING JACKET With the fine new album, “Circuital,’’ under their belts, the Kentucky-bred mavericks return with their hypnotic hybrid of rock, pop, country, folk, and trippy psychedelia. Aug. 14, 7 p.m. Tickets: $45-$60. Bank of America Pavilion. 800-745-3000. www.ticketmaster.com
SARAH RODMAN FOLK, WORLD & COUNTRY
PETE ANDERSON BAND He was the Don Rich to Dwight Yoakam’s Buck Owens, (or, for you younger folks, the Kix Brooks to Yoakam’s Ronnie Dunn), until the pair parted acrimoniously several years ago. Coincidentally, Anderson is in the area at the same time as his former partner in crime. Aug 12, 8 p.m. Tickets: $15. The Bull Run Restaurant, 215 Great Road, Shirley. 877-536-7190. www.bullrunrestaurant.com
LELAND SUNDRIES Promising Brooklyn outfit Leland Sundries, which variously means singer-songwriter Nick Loss-Eaton solo or with accompaniment, swathes sparse folk and edgy Americana around Loss-Eaton’s barrel-chested, sounds-like-Lou-Reed vocals. He’s playing solo acoustic in Somerville with fellow-Brooklynite Ruby Rae, who sings songs about swamp things and bad behavior. Aug. 13, 9 p.m. No cover. Sally O’Brien’s. 617-666-3589. www.sallyobriensbar.com
