Amanda Jo Williams, Sweaters and Jail Weddings @ the Bootleg Theater.
There’s plenty to like on this local bill. Amanda Jo Williams laces her starry-eyed country with weirdness, and Sweaters rock with a familiar sort of comfort, thanks, largely to the soulful keyboard orchestrations. Headliners Jail Weddings have a new album, “Love Is Lawless,” and cause an old-fashioned ruckus. A 10-member band, Jail Weddings fleshes out its ’60s-era garage rock sound with call-and-response vocals, and arrangements that swing and vamp with equal fervor. The Bootleg Theater, 2220 Beverly Blvd. Tickets are $10.
