Anyone who thinks of Brazil as the land of Ipaneman dream girls and Sergio Mendes is overdue for a re-education. Coachella-bound Curitiban quartet Bonde do Rolê is the sonic equivalent of capoeira, a hip-hop head-butt that layers bilingual raps over metallic samples. Putting out fire with last year’s Gasolina, the recent Domino signees are on par with a five-day cachaça bender. Electro-geniuses the Death Set open. – Marc Savlov more at austinchronicle.com

Bastard Sons of Johnny Cash w/ Jon Dee Graham

Austin native Jon Dee Graham, whose work was featured in ‘Veronica Mars’ and ‘Ladder 49,’ opens for headliner Bastard Sons of Johnny Cash. The Sons formed quickly and came to the spotlight even quicker. The band’s country twang mixed with Americana roots makes it an original to be heard for a while.

Hoge opens for the John Butler Trio. Hoge, known for his soul-filled rock ‘n’ roll sound, is the perfect start to a folksy night.

Never easy to predict what you’re getting when Kanye’s running the show, but make sure you bring your sunglasses. The never-bashful Chicago producer/MC rolls his Glow in the Dark Tour through Austin, flanked by Windy City protégé Fiasco, recently announced ACL act N.E.R.D, and Grammy-winning Barbados songstress Rihanna. – Chase Hoffberger more at austinchronicle.com

Two of the buzzier bands at SXSW team up for a tour. Man Man plays a brassy, bent blues, while Yeasayer’s modified world-beat is reminiscent of Brian Eno’s work with Talking Heads.
