Winter Blues? Rock them out, at the SnoCore Tour.
Wind-Up Records and TKO are breaking through the cold and sending out bands Flyleaf, Adelitas Way, Framing Hanley, and Fit for Rivals on the road, to fill that winter gap of less rock touring activity during the colder months. First launched in 1996, the festival has previously featured performers such as Sublime, System of a Down, Incubus, Seether and Shinedown, and the tour returns this year with an all-new package.
Headliner Flyleaf is turning over a new leaf of its own. Best known for songs from their first two albums, the Texas band now features vocalist Kristen May (formerly of Kansas City band Vedera) and is out in support of its 4th album, Between the Stars (Loud & Proud Records).
Las Vegas based Adelitas Way is in support of last year’s Stuck (Virgin Records) and recent EP, Deserve This, with a full-length follow up, expected later this year.
Nashville’s Framing Hanley, Jacksonville, FL’s Fit for Rivals, and a rotating roster of additional support acts, make the evening a full night of heat inducing rock.

Burger Records' Burgerama 2013 headliner The Growlers will be headlining the 7th Street Entry on February 26th. They are out touring in support of their newest album Chinese Fountain.

LA-based Francisco The Man (not to be confused with Portugal The Man) are kicking off their first tour of 2015 in support of their debut album Loose Ends (out now via Fat Possum), including a date in Minneapolis at 7th Street Entry on February 27th.
More info on them: It took roughly seven years, a teenage instrumental rock band, a debut EP, additions and subtractions, a roller rink and a near death experience to arrive at Francisco The Man. Following a two-year hiatus beginning in 2008, the band relocated from Riverside to Los Angeles, CA, bringing along a new addition, guitarist Brock Woolsey. With the help of Small Plates Records, they released two 7"s, In the Corners and Tiger.
