Lil Yachty at Fillmore, Minneapolis (02 Nov 2023)

Nick Hakim Nick Hakim is currently on tour in support of his debut record Green Twins (ATO Records). He’ll be headlining the 7th Street Entry on Wednesday. ...

American rapper, singer, songwriter, producer, and actor, Lil Yachty headlined the Fillmore in Minneapolis on November 2nd.

Opening the show was rap group Concrete Family. The four rappers, Camo, Draft Day, Moe, and Karrahboo, they all took turns rapping, interactive with the crowd. They passed a blunt with the crowd and came off stage and took pictures with the fans

Next up was Brooklyn’s Nick Hakim, playing songs from his three ATO albums, Green Twins, Will This Make Me Good, and Cometa. Hakim has a very mellow-chill vibe, and did not say much between songs… except to greet the crow. He seems like a very quiet guy.

Lil Yachty closed out the night. Lil Yatchty’s crew and back up singers started off with “drive ME crazy!” … before the singer came through part of his song. He then covered Phil Collins’ “In The Air Tonight.”

He had a full all-women band for half his set, which included bassist Téja Veal, guitarist Quenequia Graves, keyboardist Kennedy Avery Smith, a great drummer named Monica Carter, and two vocalists, Lea Grace Swinson and Romana R. Sainti.

Of course, the crowd pleaser of his set was “Minnesota”, which the crowd went wild when they started playing it. The song is very much beloved in the state.

Lil Yachty’s fifth, and latest, album Let's Start Here is out now on Motown Records and Quality Control Music. This is his first studio album since Lil Boat 3 and mixtape Michigan Boy Boat in 2020 and 2021, respectively.

French singer Lætitia Sadier (from Stereolab) is back in town, this time billed as the Laetitia Sadier Source Ensemble. Her latest record Find Me Finding You is available now on Drag Records.

We previously caught Sadier in 2012 and noted, “Lætitia Sadier came to the 400 Bar in Minneapolis, last night, in support of her latest album, Silencio, out now via Drag City. For those not familiar with Sadier, she is, or rather was, the main singer of Stereolab, a band from London. The band was mostly known for loungey keyboard pop sound with Sadier's distinctive French accent (either sung in French or English).”

Nicholas Krgovich (who we previously mentioned that he also goes by Chris Mastheim in 2014) and DJ Jake Rudh (from Transmission) to open.

MIDNIGHT OIL
at First Avenue
Tuesday 08/29/2017 (7pm/$50)

The legendary, politically-conscious Australian band Midnight Oil will be making a rare appearance in Minneapolis on Tuesday (over 15 years!). The time has come, a fact's a fact!

If you’re wondering about the long gap in touring, the band broke up in 2002 when vocalist Peter Garrett decided to focus on a solo career.

The Oils reformed in 2009 for a few one-off gigs, but only as of February 2017, did they decide to embark on “The Great Circle 2017” tour. All initial U.S. dates were immediately sold out. Luckily, the band decided to add a few more dates before they call it a day. The iconic group’s last stop on the 2017 tour will be at First Avenue.

To celebrate their return, the group is releasing a new box set to coincide with the tour. The Vinyl Collection will contain all their studio LPs and EPs, plus CDs and music videos.

Melbourne’s The Living End will open.

Tour dates:

08/19 | The Greek Amphitheatre | Los Angeles, CA
08/21 | Terminal 5 | New York, NY
08/23 | Place des Arts | Montreal
08/25 | Budweiser Stage | Toronto
08/27 | House of Blues | Cleveland, OH
08/29 | First Avenue | Minneapolis, MN
