Lucius is a band that has created a vibrant community of fans in Minnesota. They’ve stopped here more than ten times in the last four years, done a Micro Show for The Current, an in-store session at Electric Fetus, free shows in Rochester, and even came as singers on Roger Waters’ most recent tour. Fans […]
Neko Case’s highly appraised Palace Theater performance last year was such a hit, she booked two nights this time around. Her 5/2 show at the Fitzgerald Theater was one of two incredible nights in St. Paul. It’s been almost a year since Case’s latest album hit the airwaves. The Last Lion of Albion is Case’s […]
Ingrid Michaelson is known for heartwrenching love songs, quick wit, and humorous live performances. Her “Songs for the Season” tour blended everything that we love about her into a beautifully executed holiday concert. She opened the set with a mashup of “Looks Like a Cold Cold Winter” and “Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let […]
It is a warmer night here in Minnesota compared to what temperatures have been in the last few weeks. I soak in the ability to enjoy the walk from the parking lot to the Fitzgerald theater without the need to hunch over with hands clenched tightly in my pockets. I’m on my way to catch […]
Once upon a time, there seemed to be a magic surrounding musicians. It was exciting to witness, and there was a divide between artist and fan. There were those who made music and those who listened. As each new version of American music took hold and made a mark on the consciousness of the country, […]

Isaak’s It’s Almost Christmas Tour performance delivered a 23-song set that combined his iconic hits with rocking favorites and holiday songs. And It’s Almost […]

Dave Simonett is a busy man. As if leading Trampled by Turtles and Dead Man Winter wasn’t enough, he’s readying his first solo album under his own name. Unlike Trampled or Dead Man Winter, the recordings on Red Tail focus more on straight acoustic music rather than on bluegrass or Americana. It’s an experiment worth taking […]

Katie Ahrens The Final Vans Warped Tour / Canterbury Park The final edition of this beloved tour is easily my #1.

Before attending last Saturday night’s show at the Fitzgerald, I knew there were few brighter stars in 21st-century jazz and few who put on a show as big as Kamasi Washington. As both statements would suggest, I had ample anticipation heading into the concert, an early stop on the saxophonist’s Fearless Movement tour. Washington has […]
