TICKETS + INFORMATION

This may be a celebration of the Iranian new year, but the main reason to go comes from a beleaguered Tuareg outpost in Niger. The Agadez Tuaregs are generating the best guitar-band music anywhere these days (apparently I’m not the only one who thinks so) — and Etran de l’Air is a particularly (and, for the genre, unusually) exuberant example. And the second reason comes from New York City: the Lucky Chops brass band, which is exuberant to the max.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: It’s kind of trek, but wouldn’t you want to go to the best Persian restaurant in New York before this? Eyval.
