I missed The Fresh and Onlys the last time they played in Minnesota, due to scheduling conflicts, so I'm making it up by seeing them finally this Tuesday at the Triple Rock Social Club. …

They did manage to fit all seven band members of AgesandAges on stage at the tiny 7th Street Entry. I was kind of impressed, no one got hurt. …

Opening up for the band is Vancouver's The Shilohs, who are touring in support of their self-titled sophomore album, out now on Light Organ Records. …

"Come closer to the front. Let's do drugs," said The Fresh & Onlys lead singer Tim Cohen before the start of their gig at the Triple Rock Social Club in Minneapolis, last night, July 15th.
Typically there are three bands on the bill for the Triple Rock, starting with Vancouver's The Shilohs. Although Canadians, the band is influenced by Middle American rock, particularly R.E.M. (Athens), Big Star (Memphis) and the Replacements (Minneapolis)... so you can see that the band was really excited to play in Minneapolis.
With the exception of the drummer, everyone sings lead vocals in the band. They played a couple of tracks from their latest self-titled album ("Palm Readers" and "Queen Light Queen Dark"), which is out now on Light Organ Records.
The rest of their set seems to be taken from debut album So Wild, but written in shorthand. Also, right before their final song "The Place Where Nobody Knows I Go", they took a Polaroid photo of the audience and commented that they had to do this for every gig... I guess to showcase the places that no one knew they went to...
Almost all, if not all, of Ages and Ages' songs requires handclapping, that's an indication of how I feel about Ages and Ages (previously stylized as Agesandages). We last saw the seven-piece (now six-piece) in 2011, opening up for Lake. I was rather impressed with their big sound and described them as "upbeat, catchy, happy, and melodic."
This time around, the Portland band is touring towards Newport Folk Festival, supporting their sophomore album Divisionary, out now on Partisan Records. New tracks (at least live) sounded fantastic, including their big a cappella style song "Divisionary (Do The Right Thing)," which closed out their set.
The Fresh & Onlys are a garage/pastoral psychedelic rock band consisting of singer Tim Cohen (of Black Fiction), bassist Shayde Sartin, guitarist Wymond Miles (sporting one of the biggest hair I've ever seen), and drummer Kyle Gibson.
The San Francisco band is currently signed to Mexican Summer, since their release of 2012's Long Slow Dance. Their latest release is called House of Spirits, which is out now.
If you love the new album, this is definitely the tour to catch them on as they played their entire album, start to finish, live. As Cohen explained, "So when you bring the record home, you are not going to be surprise."
Taking a look at their written setlist, they left off a few tracks, but according to my notes, they played all of the songs, including "Candy" and finale "Madness."
When they stepped off, the venue started playing the house music (which indicates that the show was over) and a few people started walking out. Apparently there was some sort of miscommunication as the band returned for a four-track encore: "Fog Machine," "Euphoria," "Foolish Person," and "Peacock and Wing."
If you cannot wait to hear every track off House of Spirits played live, go see The Fresh & Onlys on this current tour.
