MUSIC

Fleet Foxes As far as pop music insurrections go, the recent success of such dewy folk acts as England’s Mumford & Sons, L.A.’s Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros and this sylvan Seattle combo makes it a pretty mild-mannered one. But the Foxes’ 2008 debut of Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young-style harmonies and acoustic madrigals sold around 400,000 copies in America, and the band’s immaculate three- and four-part harmonies seep into every corner of the music. 7:30 p.m. $53-$39.50. greektheatrela.com.
