Upper Narrows, a.k.a. Tyler Jackson.

Highlights

It’s an informal Portland Indie-Rock Class of 2006 reunion tonight at The Apohadion Theater (107 Hanover St.), as Record High, a band led by ex-Brenda and Cult Maze member Josh Loring, shares a bill with Upper Narrows (a.k.a. Tyler Jackson of adjacent contemporaneous acts Foam Castles and Golden Rules the Thumb), Tara Not Terra (a.k.a. Tara Cohen of The RattleSnakes) and seasoned punks Omen Negation at 8 p.m. Cover: $10 (pay what you can; all ages).

Kenya Hall and Joshua Eden.

It’s an informal Portland House of Music Funk Night 20-whatever reunion tonight at Bayside Bowl (58 Alder St.), as The Finestkind — a band comprised of seasoned Big Easy and PHOME alums like drummer Dan Boyden, bassist Stu Mahan and keyboardist Tyler Quist — back local soul queen Kenya Hall and guest singer/guitarist Joshua Eden on the rooftop at 6 p.m. Tix: $20-$25 (all ages).

City Planners.

Maine jangle-pop purveyors City Planners play Hi-Fidelity (200 Anderson St., Portland) and answer questions about affordable housing development (kidding!) with Brightstar and Normal Sixes at 8 p.m. No cover (21+).

Libbe Modes, depicted in Where They Stood, a public art installation by Timothy Goldkin.

So I whiffed on the artist talk on Wednesday for Where They Stood, a new public art installation in the sculpture garden of the Maine Jewish Museum (267 Congress St., Portland), but Timothy Goldkin’s interactive work revealing Jewish life along India Street back in the day through archival images and modern tech is there for you to experience now. Free admission.

Mamma Mia!

The Bollard Bulletin Highlights Team recognizes its biases. We know that just because we’re too old or lame or male to want to sing along to a screening of Mamma Mia! in a Greek beach party atmosphere and then stick around for a disco party at The Leavitt Theatre (259 Main St., Ogunquit) at 6 p.m., that doesn’t mean you don’t want to. Plus, it’s free. OK, we might be there…

Be somewhere fun!
