at First Avenue

A beautiful Monday evening in Minneapolis the crowds rushed in to a near sell out Xavier Rudd show at the historic First Avenue.
Bobby Alu opened and came all the way from Byron Bay, Australia. He brought all the beach vibes and I was calling him the “Jack Johnson Jr.” based on just a few songs in his set. His new release, which came out on May 3rd, is called “Keep It Tropical.” He told an awesome story on how he was born and all the magic that happens in Byron Bay. Just a matter of time before this guy blows up.
Xavier Rudd came out hot, with the resonating fire eagle in the back drop. Of course, he took the stage barefoot for the entire set like he just walked out of the jungle. After seeing him 10 years ago in New Orleans this was quite the reunion with Mr. Rudd and was very exhilarating to be on another journey with him.
He played a lot of his hits towards the end of the set “Follow the Sun” and “Spirit Bird.” He had quite the set up on stage with horns all over his drum set, every looping pedal you can imagine, and played all the strings in the book from ukelele, to banjo, to slide guitar. And he gave plenty of Minnesota love to the crowd throughout the night.
His latest EP release is called Freedom Sessions. Everytime I see Xavier live I'm ready to do yoga for hours and live in an enchanted forest.
Continue inspiring us and continue all the magic Xavier.
Until next time.
