Giant Rooks
at Varsity Theater

Germany’s Giant Rooks is touring in support of their successful debut album Rookery. The record was a massive hit in their country, hitting #3 in the album charts, and had over 200 million streams… thanks to their breakout cover of Suzanne Vega’s “Tom’s Diner” with AnnenMayKantereit. The single notably crashed the Spotify Top 200 in 30 markets and cracked the Billboard Hot 100 at #83 and the ARIA Top 50 at #18.

The band (singer Frederik Rabe, guitarist Finn Schwieters, bassist Luca Göttner, keyboarder Jonathan Wischniowski, and drummer Finn Thomas) recently released their single, “Morning Blue.”

Manchester’s The 1975 is returning to Minneapolis at the Armory this December 14, 2022.

We saw the band in May 2017 and said, “For at least this night, Prince got it wrong— On a rainy, windswept night in St. Paul, a crowd 5,000 strong at a sold-out Roy Wilkins Auditorium didn’t party like it was 1999… they partied like it was The 1975.”
