Aussie folk rocker Rudd is already something of a pop star in his home Down Under. Now, on his "Dark Shades of Blue" tour, Rudd's out to enchant audiences north of the equatorial divide with his blend of lolling melodies and earthy-ethereal vocals. Nashville native and singer-songwriter Griffin House hops aboard this Rudd-led folk bandwagon in support of his new album, "Flying Upside Down." Doors 7 p.m.
