Feb. 5. 8 p.m. $57-$97. Lynn Auditorium. 800-745-3000. www.ticketmaster.com

CABINET Celebrating 10 years of its bluegrass-and-then-some sound, this Pennsylvania sextet — fleet-picking and harmony-rich — hits town in support of its latest aptly named release, “Celebration.’’ Cabinet wisely enlisted terrific local Americana outfit Tigerman WOAH to warm up the crowd. Feb. 6. 8 p.m. $12. The Sinclair. 800-745-3000. www.ticket master.com
