Humbird (02 Dec 2023)

We saw Humbird in 02 Dec 2023 and said, “Humbird< opened the evening as the crowd slowly ambled in. We caught them at the Fine Line exactly a month ago, opening for Mipso. Again it was Siri Undlin on lead vocal and guitar with Pat Keen on upright bass providing some grooved solos with a “Go Pat Go!” coming from the crowd. After launching into a funky space duo in “Free Life,” Undlin said she just released a new song “Child of Violence” and it was the first time she got hate mail, which she and Keen welcomed, but wanted to hear it face-to-face, preferably at the merch table. To get into the holiday spirit they invited their friend, Clifton on fiddle, to the stage to play a “deranged” Xmas song. It was not so much psychotic as a haunting lament with loose strands of “Greensleeves” hemmed throughout.”
ISMAY to open.

Guided By Voices (31 Aug 2016)

We last saw Guided By Voices in
Aug 2016 and wrote, “
The cult-like followers of Guided By Voices gave a loud thunderous cheer when the Ohio band took the stage at 9:30pm. They had to start so early because they made the request to First Avenue that they were going to play over two hours and fifty minutes! Of course, true fans would automatically joke, “Oh, that’s a short set for GBV.””
Disq to open.

Kiss the Tiger (05 Oct 2023)

Kiss the Tiger to open.
I saw the local band a few times, the latest in
Oct 2023: “Kiss the Tiger is fronted by dynamic lead singer Meghan Kreidler, with rhythm guitarist Michael Anderson, guitarist Bridger Fruth, bassist Paul DeLong, and drummer Jay DeHut. They played their new single, “There You Are (Beautiful)” in the middle of the set, followed by an old favorite, “Hold On To Love”, which held The Current’s Chart Show Hall of Fame for the #1 spot for nine straight weeks. My personal favorite is Kiss the Tiger’s set closer, “Elliot Park”, featuring the catchy audience participation “alright oh yeah”. ”
DJ Jake Rudh to DJ between sets.
If your band is coming to the Minneapolis/St Paul area, please email details to
