Three acts, one Wolf Trap bill

Wolf Trap’s June 12 listing paired Young the Giant with Cold War Kids and almost monday at the Filene Center. The support acts are part of the historical record, giving readers a more useful picture of the evening’s advertised lineup than the headline name alone.

The Vienna date sits at the beginning of the archive’s summer outdoor-music stretch. Later editions return to the same venue for brass-led music, an ABBA tribute, Gipsy Kings and James Taylor. Those recurring bookings make Wolf Trap a thread through the six months; the venue photograph accompanying this story illustrates the setting and is not an image from the June concert.
