5 concerts hitting Las Vegas this week

Best known as a member of pop heartthrobs One Direction, Niall Horan knows how to stay on his toes: The 23-year-old singer recruited cosmopolitan country it girl Maren Morris to open his current tour, meaning he’ll have to be at his best to hold his own at 7:30 p.m. Saturday at The Pearl at the Palms. Tickets start at $54; call 702-944-3200.

Attila

“Pineapple doesn’t belong on pizza / You (expletive) piece of (expletive) / Why would you do this to me?” Attila frontman Chris Fronz asks on “Pizza,” the world’s first deathcore ode to the titular greasy eats. Pizza posers beware when Attila hits town at 5 p.m. Wednesday at Hard Rock Live. Tickets are $25; call 702-733-7625.

Ella Mai

“When I’m with you I can’t breathe,” this ascendant, 23-year-old R&B ingenue sings on her double-platinum hit “Boo’d Up.” “Boy, you do something to me.” Bring an oxygen tank when Mai headlines Vinyl at the Hard Rock Hotel at 8 p.m. Thursday. Tickets start at $18; call 702-693-5000.
