British electronic group Clean Bandit's song "Rather Be" won the 2015 Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording. On the strength of the single and their debut album New Eyes, the group is currently touring the US, stopping by Minneapolis' First Avenue this April 5th.
Australia's most buzzworthy breakout artist of 2014, having won Triple J's Unearthed Artist of 2014, the 24 year-old singer-songwriter Meg Mac, will be opening the First Avenue show. This will mark her first US tour, and possibly her first time in Minneapolis... so give her a warm welcome.
Meg Mac is currently supporting her latest self-titled EP, which came out this week, March 24, 2015, via Littlebigman Records/300 Entertainment.

I've said it before, I just don't like the name Happyness. The typo just drives me nuts, and I really don't know why it bothers me.
The trio just recently played NINE shows at SXSW, which is possibly the most shows I've seen a band can squeeze in at SXSW.
Happyness will be joined by Danger Ron & The Spins and Nancy's Raygun for the Turf Club show.
