jackLNDN is No Lionel Richie, But He’s Still Pretty Good – Live at the Entry
“Hi, my name is Jack and I’m from London.” jackLNDN’s show at 7th Street Entry started exactly like previous sets I’ve seen (as recently as last February opening for the Funk Hunters and stretching back to his Electric Forest 2015 appearance), a quick introduction and a nosedive into a pile of tunes. In a word, […] More
Tessa Violet’s Sold-Out Night in Minneapolis
Fans eagerly filled up and waited in First Avenue’s intimate 7thStreet Entry to see 29-year-old indie pop singer and songwriter Tessa Violet on Wednesday. Although Tessa Violet gained millions of followers as a content creator in YouTube’s early years, she went on hiatus for several months and reemerged in 2018 with her first single, “Crush”, which […] More
Manila Killa Lit Up the Entry on a Thursday
When I arrived at the Entry for Manila Killa‘s show on Thursday night, opener, AObeats, was still onstage, and he looked about as comfortable with standing on a stage as I do. That is to say, he looked rather uneasy. Thankfully, his music didn’t mirror his feelings or his body language. Instead of stoic, the […] More
Matthew McNeal at 7th Street Entry
Matthew McNeal made his promised return to Minnesota on Wednesday night. He’s been on a midwest tour in support of his latest album Good Luck.

K.Flay Puts on an Intimate Performance at The Entry
When K.Flay announced her show at 7th St Entry a little over a month ago, tickets went on sale at 12:00 p.m. and promptly sold-out by 12:05 p.m. Typically when an artist sells out a venue that quickly, it either means it’s an especially intimate performance, or it’s being put on for a certain cause. […] More

Aly Spaltro has been releasing music under the moniker Lady Lamb for more than ten years. Her singer-songwriter stylings are fed with vivid lyrical vignettes of memories past.

Kolars took Minneapolis by storm on Wednesday night. The LA duo is comprised of couple Rob Kolar and Lauren Brown.

J.S. Ondara’s Homecoming
J.S. Ondara returned home to a sold-out show at the 7th St Entry, filling the room with his delicate, mournful voice, poetic words, and stories of struggle.

Matthew McNeal Chats About His Upcoming Tour [Interview]
Texas singer-songwriter Matthew McNeal shows no sign of slowing down any time soon. In the last few months, he’s finished off a tour with Israel Nash (check out our coverage of their show at the Turf Club here) and released a new single. Now he’s fresh off of SXSW and is ready to hit the […] More
One Man Funk Band Max Frost Rocks The Entry
The saying “one-man band” is normally used to describe someone who is either a loner or someone with a lot of skills. It’s almost impossible to do successfully in the modern music era. The amount of work that goes into a single may as well be as long as a Minnesota winter. Max Frost is […] More
VHS Collection: Brings Retrofuturism to Minneapolis
I’ve had a craving for pop-synth music for a minute now and recently got into the band GUNSHIP, who use a lot of 80s inspired sounds in their tracks. This got me wondering how people hear new music. How did I hear of VHS Collection? On Instagram, they had a sponsored post up and I […] More
