The best shows in Philly this week, with the Black Keys, Lyle Lovett and the Dedicated Men of Zion

1. Dedicated Men of Zion. The great Greenville, N.C., gospel quartet are new-generation purveyors of sacred soul tradition. On The Devil Don’t Like It, released on the Bible & Tire label in 2020, the group, featuring Anthony Daniels and son Antwan, were backed by a crew of Memphis musicians on a rousing 10-song platter that The Inquirer’s Nick Cristiano called “a tonic for the times.” Free with RSVP and also broadcast on WXPN-FM (88.5). Noon, 7/29, World Cafe Live, 3025 Walnut St., xpn.org.

2. Tim Heidecker. Tim Heidecker is a funny guy, and a serious guy. The co-star with partner Eric Wareheim of the much-loved-if-long-gone Adult Swim show Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! will put both sides of his persona on display at the Fillmore on Friday. He’ll open with a stand-up comedy set, and followed with a singer-songwriter performance keyed to his new album High School, which looks back with insight on growing up outside of Allentown and contains a great song about being inspired by Neil Young called “Stupid Kid.” $35-$49.50, 8 p.m., 7/29, Fillmore Philadelphia, 29 E. Allen St., thefillmorephilly.com

3. Los Cumpleanos.

They play the Dogfish Head Brewpub, and the Delaware brewers have honored them with a limited edition Kiwi Jr. beer. (It’s a 5.0% ABV Grisette.)
