ACTION BRONSON
AT THE REPUBLIK
At first glance, Action Bronson looks nothing like your typical rapper. But a perusal of Youtube videos has affirmed that he can live up to his reputation as one of the most promising up-and-coming rappers. Stop in at The Republik and catch lesser-known hits like “Easy Rider” and “Strictly 4 My Jeeps.” The show starts at 8 p.m., and the best part? It’s FREE. jointherepublik.com

TWIN SHADOW
AT THE REPUBLIK
Urban Outfitters Hawaii hosts this free concert with headliner Twin Shadow and supporting act DJ Zilla at 8 p.m. If you want in on the show, you’ll have to pick up wristbands from the new store, located at 2424 Kalakaua Ave. But that doesn’t ensure you’ll actually get in, so arrive early. jointherepublik.com
