Tail-feathers shaken, eggs no doubt broken at Claude Vonstroke’s Rev show
A lucky and limited number of fans packed the Rev for Claude Vonstroke, and I’d wager that none of them were disappointed. Claude Vonstroke is a man of many monikers. He also goes by Papa Bird, Papa Vonstroke, CVS, and even his given name, Barclay Crenshaw. In much the same way, he is not limited to […] More
Roddy Ricch “Ballin” at sold-out First Ave
If the name Roddy Ricch doesn’t ring a bell for you, you may have been living under a rock for the past few months. Recently, the Compton-born artist saw his December-released album Please Excuse Me for Being Antisocial debut at #1 on the Billboard charts, drop a few spots to #3, and reclaim the top […] More
Sleeping With Sirens: The Medicine Tour at Skyway
With their most recent album, How it Feels to be Lost, dropping late last year, Sleeping With Sirens have come to Skyway Theatre as a part of The Medicine Tour. Support for this tour includes LA-based band Point North, Chicago-based Belmont, and Florida-based Set It Off. Point North Gets Better Point North last played here […] More
Nooky Jones packs the Icehouse
Everything about last night spoke to the modern music movement in Minneapolis. A movement defined by honesty and a new era of self-expression that allows you to let go, let down, close your eyes, and move to the snap of the snare. More
All of the Feels with Electronic Music’s Odd Man Out: Yotto at Studio B
Last night, Deep House heads reveled in the “power somber” music of Yotto in the Skyway Theatre’s Studio B. No matter the situation, Yotto’s music always has a way of hitting you right in the feels, and this go-round was no different. Yotto is Otto Yliperttula, a rather tall and handsome fellow hailing from Finland. […] More
We all broke up with Robert Pattinson last night at FKA Twigs
If you were at FKA Twigs’ incredible show last night at the Palace Theatre, I’m guessing the mere mention of it is giving you goosebumps right now. Before last night, I’d never seen FKA Twigs live. It wasn’t for lack of opportunity, though, as she’s played at festivals I attended, but I always chose other […] More
Celine Dion’s Courage Tour Touches Target Center
Is there a better way to kick off the start of a new month than by seeing Celine Dion bring her Courage World Tour to Target Center in Minneapolis? Probably not. Making the night even more monumental is the fact that the Canadian superstar has not performed in Minnesota in over a decade. With eager […] More
Stand Atlantic and The Faim Co-Headline Amsterdam
Since there is no better way to start the week than by attending a pop-punk show, I find myself at Amsterdam Bar & Hall for Stand Atlantic and The Faim‘s co-headlining tour. With a fairly eclectic lineup, it’s one I’ve been looking forward to for quite some time. It is an earlier show, so the house […] More
Garrix Blesses the Midwest at the Sold-Out Armory
First Time? Martin Garrix, the legendary Dutch DJ, just made his first appearance in Minnesota, and he did not disappoint. The 23-year-old House DJ is truly an icon for his age and is among the greats like Avicii, David Guetta, Tiesto, Calvin Harris and more. At the age of 17, he released “Animals” which jump-started […] More
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
