It seems that touring musicians have been really enjoying their time in Boston lately. A few weeks ago Justin Bieber spent some quality moments in our Public Garden, last month Robyn took in the sights at the Institute of Contemporary Art, and over this past weekend, former Suede guitarist Bernard Butler, currently on tour with Ben Watt, took his morning running routine to a scenic route along the Charles River.
Today, Ladyhawke has put in a call for locally recommended fun times before her show Tuesday (June 21) at Brighton Music Hall in Allston. On Twitter, the New Zealand electronic-pop performer born “Pip” Brown writes: “Can any Boston locals recommend some cool things to do or see in Boston?”
We recommended the ICA, the Museum of Fine Arts, and some lunch at Roxy’s Grilled Cheese, which is just down Brighton Avenue a fairly close to tomorrow’s venue.
Have any other suggestions? Follow the tweet and chime in.

It should be noted that Ladyhawke is in town supporting her excellent new album, Wild Things (we hyped its razor-sharp single “Dangerous” back in April). The new LP, her third, officially dropped on June 3, and follows 2012 album Anxiety and her 2008 self-titled breakout, which includes one of this writer’s most favorite songs of the decade in “Magic”.
Check out a few of Ladyhawke’s newer jams below. Tickets to the Brighton gig are available here.
