• She showcase: A theatrical tribute to more than two dozen female solo icons and groups, Crowned28 ranges from Aretha to Lady Gaga. It’s the latest from Manchester singer Jordan Quinn, who did the diva-centric Queens a while back. The genre-fluid show offers hits from Heart, Linda Ronstadt and Pat Benatar, along with Celine Dion, Dolly Parton and Tina Turner, all backed by a full band. Thursday, April 23, at 7:30 p.m., Rex Theatre, 23 Amherst St., Manchester, $30, palacetheatre.org.
• Solidarity songs: To benefit NH Immigrant Mutual Aid Fund, Joyful Resistance: A Night of Protest Songs raises up music as a means to effect social change, from Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger to Bob Dylan and Bruce Springsteen. The event is hosted by Tess George and The Common Good Chorus, with performances from The Rise Up Singers, Fortune’s Favor, and No Planet B. Friday, April 24, 7 p.m., Unitarian Universalist Church, 58 Lowell St., Nashua, uunashua.org.
• Local lights: Celebrating the release of their new album Off The Grid, Slim Volume performs in downtown Concord. The LP offers lush harmonies, jangly riffs and modern lyrics — for the latter, check out “6:51” and the title cut. It’s another winner from one of New Hampshire’s standout acts. The show opens with fellow New Englanders Regals, and Hey, I’m Outside, the latter led by a pair of Southern expats. Friday, April 24, 8 p.m., BNH Stage, 16 S. Main St., $18, ccanh.com.
• Reliable rockers: Few Granite State bands can bring the party like Conniption Fits, a rollicking power trio that’s heated up regional nightclubs for multiple decades. From MTV staples like “Come On Eileen” to contemporary hits from Kings of Leon, Bruno Mars and Lorde, the band knows how to get crowds dancing. Their original project Echo the Divide is also very good. Saturday, April 25, 8 p.m., Stumble Inn Bar & Grill, 20 Rockingham Road, Londonderry, conniptionfits.com.
• Fleet fellow: A short New England run for Robin Pecknold wraps up in Nashua. It’s been close to two years since his band Fleet Foxes has performed, so a solo acoustic set is a welcome tonic for fans. Along with favorites like “Helplessness Blues” and “Mykonos,” Pecknold in the past has done Joni Mitchell’s “Amelia” and Glen Campbell’s “Wichita Lineman,” so expect surprises. Sunday, April 26, 7 p.m., Nashua Center for the Arts, 201 Main St., Nashua, $57 and up, etix.com.
