Weekend picks: Funny storytelling, poignant songs and tooth-breaking rock
FRIDAY
Hayes Carll, Troy Campbell and Graham Wilkinson at Antone’s. The wily Hayes Carll is the draw at this Antone’s anniversary show, but come early to catch Graham Wilkinson and the Underground Township. Wilkinson has a new solo record, which he’ll probably play songs from. Campbell’s set will be a virtual Loose Diamonds reunion, with Scrappy Jud on guitar. $15. — Michael Corcoran

SUNDAY
Jon Dee Graham and Miles Zuniga at the Continental Club Gallery. These Jon Dee duet shows are as much about funny storytelling as poignant songs, so this one should be especially good. Miles Zuniga of Fastball has a sharp wit, does funny impressions and then there’s that over-the-top laugh. 8:30 p.m. $17/$20. — M.C.
