Everything Everything |
Singer Jonathan Higgs noted that this was their “first time here... ever!” and the band seemed generally excited to finally Minneapolis. In fact, they were so excited, they added Prince’s “Raspberry Beret” at the end of their setlist ... but unfortunately, due to time constraints, the band did not perform the cover song in their 40-minute set.

While the October 2015 Turf Club show was loose with singer Bryan constantly ribbing on the two other members and had the feel of a pub gig down the block, the First Avenue performance was more of a proper rock show, with bigger stage, full light rigs, and the band seemingly very focused.
Add to that, there has been another five months in which they have lived with the new songs from Hitch, further refining them live and making them fit like perfect puzzle pieces, inside their ninety-minute headlining set.

The Joy Formidable at First Avenue, Minneapolis (05 April 2016) |
this was a show I had been waiting for, a long time....I missed the other shows but heard they were good......but When Everything everything came out and began to play I knew first Ave was in for a treat......these guys put on a show that with what music they had in there library and time....they just nailed everything they played.....fed the crowed to keep them involved and kept the energy up....when they played Reptiles..that just floored many people who maybe weren't listening at fist...but shut up enough to actually listen to the song.....
Joy Formidable came out and just rocked the house.....from the first song to the last..very cool to see them and I can see why someone like Brian Oak recommends them : ) very enjoyable set.....and many were a dancing in the crowd.....
