 Big Wild
Opening the show was Big Wild from Los Angeles. Big Wild is Jackson and was definitely a jaw dropper as an opening act for an already amazing line up. What sets Big Wild apart from the other acts of the night

California’s
Big Wild sold out his 4/20 show at the 7th Street Entry. He’s touring in support of his new single “Aftergold”, featuring Tove Styrke, and sold under ODESZA's Foreign Family Collective.
We previously caught him
in 2015 and wrote, “was definitely a jaw dropper as an opening act for an already amazing line up.”
One of the biggest breakout electronic acts of the year, no doubt gaining new fans with his Coachella appearance. Look for his debut album coming later this year.

Profresher (aka Billy Blacklight).

 Filter
Filter's 1995 debut album, Short Bus, is a fine example of industrial rock (although Richard Patrick doesn't like the term) at its best. I find the criticism Rich has received regarding Filter's similarities to Nine Inch Nails to be absurd.

FILTER
at Mill City Nights
Wednesday, 04/20/16, 6:30pm ($20 / $23)
millcitynights.com
Filter will be back in Minneapolis next week on April 20th. Although most people will likely show up because of their hit single “Hey Man Nice Shot”, industrial music fans have embraced the band for their innovative music from singer Richard Patrick (guitarist/programmer Brian Liesegang left the band in 1997). The band’s music and direction is always changing, with Patrick explaining that, “You recognize it’s us from my aggression and singing, but the instrumentation had to change. It wasn’t about just stacking guitars like we might’ve done on the last couple records. There are way more electronics and sound design.”
Filter is touring in support of their seventh studio album
Crazy Eyes, available on Wind-Up Records.
Opening will be
Orgy,
Vampires Everywhere! and
Death Valley High.
