DOLDRUMS
at 7th Street Entry
Friday 05/08/15, 8pm ($12)

Canadian band Doldrums (lead by Airick Woodhead) should not to be confused with American 90s band Doldrums or the Ariel Pink album. They are on tour in support of their latest The Air Conditioned Nightmare; available now on Sub Pop. The weird album title was taken by Henry Miller's 1945 collection of essays, after his return to the US after ten years as an expatriate.
Toronto duo Moon King will be opening the show, they are on tour of their debut album Secret Life (which came out two weeks ago). We've been talking about Moon King for a while now, including their recent tour with Alvvays.
Also on the bill is local electronic duo Tender Meat.

YOUNG FATHERS
at 7th Street Entry
Saturday 05/09/15, 8pm ($12)
first-avenue.com
Speaking of 'moon', local duo Moon and Pollution (singer Molly Dean and producer Graham O'Brien) will be opening up for New York's Mas Ysa (aka Thomas Arsenault) and headliner Young Fathers from Scotland.
I'm told that this show will likely sell out, so grab your ticket now. The Edinburgh-based rock/pop group, who won the Mercury Prize for their album Dead in 2014, is in the USA in support of their latest album White Men Are Black Men Too on Big Dada.
Tour dates:
at Cedar Cultural Center
Saturday 05/09/15, 7pm ($20)

Meanwhile, over at the Cedar, Tyrone Wells is back in the Twin Cities. I previously saw his him in 2010. Due to other commitments, I cannot cover his set or Dominic Balli. However, I have agreed to see singer/songwriter Emily Hearn, currently on tour in support of her latest Hourglass.
