Coheed and Cambria might be rock’s geekiest band, and that’s meant in the best way possible. The prog-rock quartet’s extensive discography comprises concept albums (including In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth: 3, which will be played in its entirety at this show) that each tell a chapter in the fantasy tales of Coheed, Cambria, and Claudio Kilgannon. Over the years, this story has been further explored in a series of comic books called The Armory Wars, all penned by lead singer Claudio Sanchez. The music doesn’t come second to the plot, though; the band’s albums all have a cinematic feel to match The Armory Wars’ epic storyline. With Thank You Scientist. The Paramount, 911 Pine St., 682-1414, stgpresents.org/paramount. 7:30 p.m. $25.75 adv./$29.25 DOS. All ages. ACP

Short of the Human League’s “Don’t You Want Me,” the women singers croon about rarely, if ever, get to share their side of the story. Esme Patterson wanted to change that with her latest album, Woman to Woman. On it, the vocalist (who also performs in Paper Bird) wrote response songs from the perspective of seven of pop music’s most famous ladies. Elvis Costello’s “Alison” became “Valentine,” Dolly Parton’s “Jolene” turned into “Never Chase a Man,” and Lead Belly’s “Goodnight Irene” is reinterpreted as “A Dream.” “Loretta,” “Caroline, No,” “Eleanor Rigby,” and “Evangeline” also have their say. In her “folk & roll” style, Patterson adds color to these famous figures immortalized for years in one-sided stories, restoring to them their long-unheard voices.
