SUNDAY, JUNE 15
STATE THEATRE
Maxwell
Call it a good sign of Summer.
The formerly reclusive R&B crooner, Maxwell is back on the road, with his first tour in four years. He was last seen on the road in 2009, touring for BLACKsummers’night (Columbia Records), the first in what was promised to be a trilogy of albums; the remaining two are yet to be released, though hopefully this is a good sign of more to come.
The Summer Solstice Tour is set for 37 cities through mid-August, with a weekend stop in downtown Minneapolis at the State Theatre. Fingers are crossed that the smooth songster will be previewing new material from his next release, as well as expect the classics that have had women swooning for the last fifteen years.

MONDAY, JUNE 16
FIRST AVENUE
Tegan and Sara w/ The Courtneys + My Midnight Heart
Tegan and Sara are back with their "Let's Make Things Physical Tour."
The last time we saw the Quin sisters at First Avenue last year, they played practically every song from their latest album Heartthrobs. I'm assuming with this current tour, that the duo will likely dip in to their older catalog for some fan favorite songs.
Speaking of non-physical, digital copies of their Heartthrob Magazine are available now as a free download via iTunes.
Opening up the show will be Vancouver's The Courtneys, touring in support of their debut self-titled LP and Brooklyn's My Midnight Heart (singer and songwriter Angélica Allen).

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 18
7TH STREET ENTRY
Diarrhea Planet w/ Danger Ron & the Spins + Gabe Douglas
No doubt on everybody's list of "Worst Band Name Ever" is Diarrhea Planet, back in Minneapolis. The band recently re-issued two long out-of-print singles via Infinity Cat Recordings. The single was reviewed as "good, or better, than their latest I'm Rich Beyond my Wildest Dreams," so expect to find the 7" single at their upcoming show.
Opening up the Minneapolis show are four dudes called Danger Ron & the Spins and Gabe Douglas, normally the guy in charge of the 4onthefloor.
Check out the band on their latest "Dude.... Diarrhea Planet Litterally, Seriously, Literally Cannot Stop Touring Tour":

THURSDAY, JUNE 19
CEDAR CULTURAL CENTER
Oneohtrix Point Never
The last time Oneohtrix Point Never (Daniel Lopatin) was in Minneapolis, he was part of the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra's Liquid Music Series show. John described his show as both a visual and audio experience, "forms, shapes and text; both everyday and unknown, rotating, melting, and morphing into others."
Expect to see some of that on his upcoming Cedar Cultural Center show this Thursday.
In addition to Oneohtrix Point Never's latest work R Plus Seven, Lopatin released something called Commissions I (for the first time via Warp Records for Record Store Day - April 19, 2014). The new release is part of a collection of various commissions for artwork, performance, and film.

FRIDAY, JUNE 20
FIRST AVENUE
Old 97s
We caught The Old 97s earlier this year at SXSW, and also last year at the Fine Line Music Café, in Minneapolis, which Emily described singer Rhett Miller's vocals as nothing short of "fantastic and passionate." At that time, last year, we hinted that the band had a new album in the works.... well it's here and it's called Most Messed Up, out now on ATO Records.
Old 97s will be here on Friday, headlining the main room at First Avenue.
