John Vanderslice, Thursday, September 17: Among that certain cadre of orchestral-pop troubadours -- Leonard Cohen descendants like Rufus Wainwright, Tom Waits, DeVotchKa's Nick Urata, sometimes Billy Bragg -- John Vanderslice stands out for sounding the most like all the others combined. In these Depression 2.0 times, that may seem like a bargain -- it's like hearing a half-dozen singer-songwriters for the price of one! -- but let's not be quite so cynical. Vanderslice isn't a pop composite as much as he is a musical Zelig, having rubbed shoulders in recording studios and on stages with the likes of Death Cab, Spoon, Okkervil River, The Mountain Goats and Sufjan Stevens. The fact that he remains relatively under the radar means that the lush arrangements and striking lyrics off his latest album, Romanian Names, can be enjoyed in a more intimate setting alongside fans who, like you, are in it for the music. With Pink Mountaintops and Mimicking Birds. Crocodile, 2200 Second Ave. 441-5611. 8 p.m. $14 adv. Note by ROSE MARTELLI

Susan Tedeschi, Wednesday, August 19: While most great musical partnerships are forged before the respective parties go down their own solo paths, Susan Tedeschi and her husband Derek Trucks are working in the opposite direction. They're in bed together, they're raising a family together, they've toured together, and they've made appearances on each others' records. But they've never made a proper album together. It's an inevitability that has the potential to be greater than anything the couple has every accomplished on their own. Tedeschi brings a beautiful, gravelly voice, Southern charm and pop sensibilities pinned on her vest; Trucks sings through his slide guitar in a voice of his own, but pushes increasingly onto the fringes of popular music on a crash course toward self-indulgent experimentalism. Together on a full-length, they could play to each others' strengths, temper their vices, and make the record their fans are begging for. Woodland Park Zoo, 601 N. 59th St. 684-4800. 7 p.m. $22. All ages. Note by CHRIS KORNELIS
