It’s been too long since Freedy’s been to Austin, but this week he makes up for it with two shows of dynamic Americana. At the Saxon, the current New York City resident is solo acoustic, the best way to hear his winsome vocals, while at Momo’s on Thursday, he brings the band for a show that’s sure to rock, twang, and break some hearts. – Jim Caligiurimore at austinchronicle.com

Named after the small town located between Aaron Espinoza’s hometown of Fresno and his band’s current headquarters in L.A., Earlimart has altered its lineup and sound since issuing its debut in 1999. But the band—which is now down to Espinoza and Ariana Murray—has hit its stride since its ode to late friend Elliott Smith, 2004’s Treble And Tremble, whose instrumentation seemed influenced by both Smith and co-producer Jim Fairchild’s old band, Grandaddy. Earlimart put out the well-received Mentor Tormentor last August, and now the duo is back with the even better Hymn And Her, whose best songs—especially the dreamy “Time For Yourself”—are the ones featuring Murray on lead vocals. Things can get a little snoozy in this land of subdued indie rock, but the overall beauty is easy to get lost in. Opening: Zookeeper, {{{Sunset}}}. (Earlimart also plays an in-store at Waterloo Records at 5 p.m.)
