Yo La Tengo

Hoboken is a hotbed for talent, having given us Frank Sinatra and Yo La Tengo. The former wowed bobby soxers, the latter grabs indie rockers, and both earned their stripes in the concert venues and recording studio. The Wilbur Theatre hosts the Yo La Tengo all-ages show and celebration of the New Jersey-based trio's latest release, "Popular Songs." New wave, punk, garage, and '60s rock share the stage with Japanese guests, Yura Yura Teikoku. -- June Wulff, Globe Staff

On the road behind the cheekily titled "Popular Songs," its new album out this week, the stalwart indie-rock trio of Ira Kaplan, Georgia Hubley, and James McNew is as eccentric and entertaining as ever. -James Reed, Globe Staff
