Lissie: Rock Island, Ill., native Elisabeth Maurus released her debut album, “Catching a Tiger” (Fat Possum), a few months ago, showcasing a smoky voice and a knack for mesmerizing folk-rock songcraft dragged down by overly polished production. She’s caused a bigger buzz in Europe, but that could change soon as more Americans catch her buoyant live performances. 9 p.m. Saturday at Lincoln Hall, 2424 N. Lincoln, $14; lincolnhallchicago.com
Trouble: The veteran metal band, progenitors of the doom movement in the ’80s and then moving on to incorporate elements of psychedelia and stoner-rock melody on a series of excellent recordings, is back with a revamped lineup and a new album in the works for summer release. 9 p.m. Saturday at the Bottom Lounge, 1375 W. Lake, $15; ticketweb.com
