Music: Early birds get Harper Simon and Tift Merritt

The Federal Bar’s Mimosa Music Series is a rare (and successful) attempt to get rock fans up and at ‘em before noon. This week’s installment is a demure bill of contemporary folk pop, with Harper Simon and Tift Merritt headlining the a.m. bill (and yes, the titular beverage will be available). Federal Bar, 5303 Lankershim Blvd., North Hollywood. 11 a.m. Sun. Free. nh.thefederalbar.com.
