‘Kim's Convenience,' Amaarae, LCD Soundsystem and more: What the Star's culture team is loving this week
Concert: LCD Soundsystem
As detailed in Lizzy Goodman's fantastic oral history, 'Meet Me in the Bathroom,' James Murphy burst onto the scene as an essential player in New York's rock 'n' roll rebirth of the early 2000s, merging Euro-style electronica and Talking Heads art funk with his own signature blasé vocals on songs about the party and the morning after. On Friday, Murphy brings his body-moving disco-rock band — who, by the way, positively smoke live — to History (1663 Queen St. E.) for the first of a three-night stand. —Doug Brod
