Here's the music lineup on Philly stages tonight & in the coming week

Live music and more, tonight through Thursday, compiled by Shaun Brady, Tom Di Nardo, James Johnson, Sara Sherr and Jonathan Takiff.

POP . . . plus

Lou Barlow: Best known for his work with Sebadoh and Folk Implosion, Barlow is a staunchly independent eccentric with an acid-laced, mind-expanded aura. The wistfully harmonizing, dream folk duo Wye Oak make for a complimentary opener. Johnny Brenda's, 1201 N. Frankford Ave., 9:30 tonight, $12, 215-739-9684, www.johnnybrendas.com.

Guy Davis: A second-generation performer and offspring of noted actors Ossie Davis and Ruby Dee brings a rare resonance, power and depth to his blues and folk originals and covers. While urban raised, his music also reflects his grandparents' rural roots. Longwood Gardens, Routes 1 & 52, Kennett Square, 7:30 p.m. tomorrow, free with Gardens admission, $6 (students), $14 (seniors) $16 (adults), ages 4 and under free, 610-388-1000, www.longwoodgardens.org.

Mack Bailey and Rachel Levy: A tenor so sweet he was picked to fill the Glenn Yarborough slot in the Limeliters folk trio, Mack has also fronted a touring John Denver tribute show. But here he steps out with his wife, a talent in the Emmylou Harris zone. Local lights Lizanne Knott and John Conahan also trill. Psalm Salon, 5841 Overbrook Ave., 8 p.m. tomorrow, $16/$20, pre-show meal catered by Avril Restaurant available, 215-477-7578, psalmsalon.com.

Stan Ridgway: The man who gave us the tremulous "Mexican Radio" as leader of Wall of Voodoo still has the gift, putting forth fascinating fevered visions on his new "Neon Mirage" album. You'll love his wry, deadpan commentary about accident avoidance "Turn a Blind Eye," the dark and foreboding twangster "This Town Called Face" and his homage to truth telling "Lenny Bruce." Honestly, it's all special. Tin Angel, 20 S. 2nd St., 8 p.m. Tuesday, $22, 215-928-0978, www.tinangel.com.
