Pick: Gogol Bordello

In solidarity: Punk rock band Gogol Bordello has cultivated a unique sound that’s reflective of its members’ diverse origins. Formed in America by immigrants from Ukraine, Russia, Ecuador, and Ethiopia, the group fuses underground rock with Eastern European Romani music. Lead vocalist Eugene Hütz calls it a sound that “unites people against oppression of any kind.” The band is currently using its platform to support Ukraine, with live shows and new music, such as “Zelensky: The Man With the Iron Balls,” a collaboration with multiple artists, including Les Claypool and Sean Lennon.

Monday 5/9. $34-38, 7:30pm. The Jefferson Theater, 110 E. Main St., Downtown Mall. jeffersontheater.com
