at Turf Club

Award-winning singer-songwriter
Tenille Townes will be headlining the Turf Club, in St Paul, on May 17, 2024.
Her latest song, “Thing That Brought Me Here,” Townes mentioned, “I wrote this song with Ben Rector about my truck that’s become a symbol of the dream for me and a piece of home. It’s the only thing I’ve driven since I started driving and it drove me 47 hours to move to Nashville from Alberta ten years ago. I want the story of ‘The Thing That Brought Me Here’ to live on through a song and I want it to be a reminder to anyone listening that our ambitions are worth holding on to and fighting for. If you would have told the high school kid driving this truck that she’d be living in Nashville writing and recording songs and touring the world, she’d be losing her mind. I never want to let go of that feeling.”

We saw Prateek Kuhad in
Jun 2022 and wrote, “Let me start by saying that I’ve never seen so many Hindi at a concert before. That’s thanks to Indian singer/songwriter Prateek Kuhad and his star power, thanks to former US president Barack Obama putting Kuhad’s song “Cold/Mess” on his “Favorite Music of 2019.” I think it’s so cool to see people that don’t normally attend shows on the dancefloor… and I hope they continue to support live music.”

We last saw Ride as part of the excellent double-billing with The Charlatans in
Feb 2023 and wrote, “Playing first was Oxford’s Ride, featuring vocalists and guitarists Andy Bell and Mark Gardener, drummer Laurence “Loz” Colbert and bassist Steve Queralt. The band is one of the early pioneers of shoegazing music, thanks to their debut album Nowhere, which came out in 1990. The term shoegazing is used to described the layers of guitar distortions and effects. Its origin is in reference to the many guitar foot pedals (so the guitarist would be staring at their feet to operate the effects correctly).”
