Alex Cameron & Roy Molloy

Hailing from Sydney, Australia, indie pop singer-songwriter Cameron comes to San Francisco accompanied by saxophonist Molloy. Cameron’s reaction to contemporary problems is “a danceable and dangerous earnestness, a sense of honesty that heals and relieves even as it cleaves us or makes us laugh in self-defense.” 8 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 12. The Independent, 628 Divisadero, San Francisco. $20$25. 415-771-1421. www.theindependentsf.com
