Roanoke College graduate Sami “The Great” Akbari returns to the valley with an original idea for a show. Akbari’s The Great Animation Tour — which hits Kirk Avenue Music Hall on March 5 — features animation inspired by her music and synced up to prerecorded, reimagined versions of her tunes, to which she’ll sing and play along. On this podcast, Akbari said, “It’s going to be quite the experience, I think, for the listeners and the onlookers.”

Streaming music: “Candyland.”
