Best Bets: Concerts you should probably check out
The XX will be at Merriweather Post Pavilion, June 15.
Summer is in full-swing. All of the outdoor amphitheaters are coming alive and we’re getting some pretty good shows out of it. Speaking of amphitheaters, Wolf Trapp has really stepped its game up this year. Yeah, there is still a lot of old folks’ music, but the quality is different than previous years and it does seem like they have made a conscience effort to inject some youth into their calendar this summer. Check out this week’s shows below.

Shark Week will perform with Paperhaus at Rock & Roll Hotel Friday, June 7.
So, this week starts out pretty slow, but come Thursday, there are a ton of awesome shows to check out. Notably absent from this week’s Best Bets is Steez Promo’s Moonrise Festival. The EDM festival was due to rock Baltimore’s Sun Park this weekend, but permit issues forced the cancellation of the festival last week.
