SOUNDS: Levon Helm @ Terminal 5 (tonight 1/7)

From Time Out NY: Levon Helm is simply one of the purest remaining icons of American roots rock. His heart-wrenching vocal twang and loosey-goosey bounce behind the drum kit contributed greatly to the Band’s signature weight, and his down-home persona has even led to a respectable acting career for the Arkansas native. Opening is Okkervil River, whose Will Sheff has (rightly) always been noted for the literate, narrative quality of his lyrics.

Tonight (1/7) at Terminal 5 in Manhattan
