May 18: Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow may be on the outs, but at least Coldplay fans can take some solace in Augustana. Led by Daniel Layus, the Nashville-based outfit’s latest release, Life Imitating Life, continues to pay homage to Martin’s multiplatinum band with its moody yet tuneful baroque-rock strains. It’s music to consciously couple to. $29. Theatre of the Living Arts, 334 South St., Philadelphia, (215) 922-2599, www.tlaphilly.com.
