POP & ROCK

FOLK, WORLD & COUNTRY
TRACY CHAPMAN She hasn’t lived here since the ’80s, but Chapman always gets a hometown-hero welcome in these parts. The singer-songwriter, who busked and played coffeehouses around town while attending Tufts, is on the road behind last year’s stately “Our Bright Future.’’ It’s the latest addition to her deep catalog of rootsy folk-pop anchored in themes of social justice and heartache. At 8 tonight. $29-$39. House of Blues. www.ticketmaster.com or 800-745-3000. JAMES REED
THE LOVELL SISTERS Only one of them is out of her teens, but the sweet-voiced Georgian siblings behind this bluegrass trio sound well beyond their years. Playing fiddle, mandolin, and resonator guitar, the Lovells coax a rich and rootsy sound from their instruments, as heard on their new album, “Time to Grow.’’ This is the show for everyone missing out on this weekend’s Folk Festival 50 in Newport. 4:30 p.m. Sunday. $12. Club Passim. 617-492-7679. www.clubpassim.com - J.R.
