The 37th Annual Telluride Bluegrass Festival, which runs through Sunday in that mountain town, is again flaunting its clout with some of the biggest names in bluegrass, folk and roots music, including Alison Krauss, Lyle Lovett, Josh Ritter, Hot Rize, Bela Fleck, Zakir Hussain & Edgar Meyer and the Sam Bush Band. But repping the younger set this year are Brandi Carlile, Mumford & Sons and indie darlings Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros. Single- day tickets ($60) are available only at the Planet Bluegrass box office in Telluride.
Lou Barlow can always be counted on to do his own thing — even when that means rehashing old material with a new band. The founding bassist for Dinosaur Jr. and head of indie rockers Sebadoh and Folk Implosion is hitting the Larimer Lounge tonight with his band the Missingmen to play songs from his catalog, including the recent digital EP “Sentridoh III,” which reworks some older material, and last year’s unusually soft-eyed “Goodnight Unknown,” on Merge Records. With Sarah Jaffe and Hobbs, N.M. $13.
