Brian Jonestown Massacre long return to Minneapolis took place at First Avenue in Minneapolis on Sunday, in support of their forthcoming album Fire Doesn't Grow On Trees… set for June 24, 2022. In addition, the band also wrote and have planned their companion album The Future Is Your Past, set for October 2022.

Mercury Rev was originally the band to support BJM… but due to COVID concerns, they dropped out of the tour until April 12th.

Local psychedelic band Magic Castles (singer/guitarist Jason Edmonds, singer/guitarist Jeremiah Doering, bassist Paul Fuglestad, drummer Brendan McInerney) stepped in at the last minute to save the day. This made sense, as Magic Castles previously opened for BJM in May 2016… and we like band, as they were one of the few highlights at the Bathysphere: A Psychonautical Voyage festival in May 2013.

A lot has changed since 2013, apparently the band lost their flutist. Their music was discovered by Brian Jonestown Massacre’s founder/band leader Anton Newcombe… who signed the group to his A Recordings.

Songs on Magic Castles’ set were mostly new songs from Sun Reign and their previous album Sky Sounds.

Brian Jonestown Massacre took the stage a little later than advertised. This is a very large band, featuring singer/guitarist/leader Anton Newcombe, guitarist Ricky Maymi, additional guitarist Hakon Adalsteinsson, keyboardist Ryan Carlson Van Kriedt, drummer Uri Rennert, bassist Collin Hegna, and tambourine player Joel Gion. In addition, there are guitar tuners, and soundboard tech.

With all the players, and tightly controlled sound, the band creates layers and layers of psychedelic soundscape. Singer Newcombe hardly spoke throughout their set, instead letting the music speaks for itself. When he does speak, it’s usually to complain that his guitars weren’t tuned right (and that he has to take a few mins to get it just right before playing).

As you can see from the setlist (see photo below), most of their songs were taken from their latest Fire Doesn't Grow On Trees… which the band admitted that they were just itching to test out these songs live. Newcombe, quoted, “For me, live is where it [these songs] lives or dies. So, for me to get the chance at my age to go off on another world tour for two years and play bigger places, grand theaters, and be at the top of my game, it's an honor as well as a challenge. We are very excited.”

Brian Jonestown Massacre’s upcoming album Fire Doesn't Grow On Trees will be out in June 2022, via A Recording.

Penny and Sparrow will be out on tour in support of their 7th studio album Olly Olly (I Love You / Thirty Tigers).

“Olly Olly is our first ever entirely self-produced album. We built it, with Alabama & Texas friends, over the past 2 years in various living rooms, studios, kitchens & screened-in porches,” explain Penny and Sparrow’s Andy Baxter and Kyle Jahnke. “By virtue of where we are in life, this is our most eclectic sounding and ambitious record and we couldn’t be prouder of it. It is exactly what we wanted it to be and it houses so many brand new directions for us…(our first feature, our first murder ballad, prevalent sample usage & 808’s) We hope it’s exactly what you need it to be.”

THE BRIAN JONESTOWN MASSACRE
at First Avenue
Saturday, 05/14/16, 8pm ($20)
first-avenue.com

American psychedelic rock band The Brian Jonestown Massacre was named after the original band leader of The Rolling Stones, Brian Jones, and the Jonestown mass murder of over 900 people in a remote religious commune. Both topics were subjects of death and conspiracies.

Perhaps The Brian Jonestown Massacre was best known for appearing in the film Dig! with their rival The Dandy Warhols.

We caught the band in Playground Weekender 2010 and wrote, “The Brian Jonestown Massacre we nearly at the top of my list of bands for the weekend and quite a fitting choice to end the Friday evening line-up. Not too raucous for those of us who were looking forward to a nice nap (*ahem*), but by no means boring. Psychedelic-shoe gaze rock, with tambourine included. Sure many of their songs sounded quite alike to me, but the upside is that even though they sounded quite similar, they were all equally as good. The set even saw a guest appearance from Aimee Nash from The Black Ryder.”

Opening up the MN show will be locals Magic Castles, who we caught in 2013 and loved them: “I actually thought Magic Castles was very good. It's certainly the only band the featured a flutist on an explosive jam at their set closer.”

Although they are known as The English Beat in the USA market and The British Beat in Australia... they’ll always be known as The Beat to fans of two tone ska fans.

The story behind the US name change is because the US already had and established powerpop band The Beat (later known as The Paul Collins Beat). Collins and the UK Beat eventually made-up and actually went on tour together in 2012.

The Beat will be doing a two night residency at the Dakota Jazz Club this Friday and Saturday.
