Originally booked earlier on May 12, 2022, the Spacey Jane show at the Fine Line Music Cafe, in Minneapolis, finally took place on October 19. The Australian band admittedly said they were really excited to finally get to play for us on Wednesday night.

Opening the show was Joe P (Joe Parella). If you’re not familiar with the New Jersey singer, since the 8th grade, he’s fronted a band called Deal Casino, named after the Deal Casino Bathing Pavilion after the band waited for hours at the location for the Bamboozle Music Festival in 2013.

The band broke up in 2020, and it’s clear that Joe P had no ill-will or embarrassment about his time in Deal Casino, because he still proudly performs those Deal Casino songs, such as “Baby Teeth” and “Color TV”, on his set.

Joe P seemed really shy and self-loathing as first, as he mentioned how he didn’t expect anyone to know who he was… but after hearing some disputing cheers and feedback, he smiled and still continued to introduce his songs and little stories that inspired them.

He ended his 45-min set with his solo signature song, “Off My Mind”. The song, as of this writing, has nearly 20 million streams on Spotify.

Space Jane, featuring vocalist and guitarist Caleb Harper, bassist Peppa Lane, guitarist Ashton Hardman-Le Cornu and drummer and manager Kieran Lama, is from Fremantle, Australia (also the home of one of our favorite Australian band San Cisco).

The band first came to fame for their debut album Sunlight in June 2020. The album is certified Gold, after it debut at #2 on the ARIA album chart and was voted Album of the Year on Triple J’s Listener’s Poll and J Award (Australian Broadcasting Corporation).

Since the record came out during the pandemic, the band actually could not tour to promote the record. Fast-forward to 2022, and after the band released their sophomore album Here Comes Everybody, the band is finally on tour to promote both records.

As you can see from the setlist, the band mostly stuck to the debut album, throwing in a few songs from their second album.

Of course, they saved their biggest hit singles for the encore, starting with “Lots of Nothing” (which landed #3 on Triple J’s hottest 100), and “Booster Seat” (which landed #2 on Triple J’s hottest 100, with Glass Animals being in the #1 spot). The last song was a megahit for the band, with over 50 million streams on Spotify alone.

The band is touring in support of their sophomore album Gracetown . … Carla Geneve Show up early to check out Western Australian artist Carla Geneve, touring in support of her debut self-titled EP that came out yesterday (June 7th) via Dot Dash / Remote Control Records. Geneve came on the music scene with her debut single …

Australian band San Cisco (Jordi Davieson, Scarlett Stevens, Josh Biondillo, and Jennifer Aslett), headlined the Cedar Cultural Center on Friday, June 14th.

Opening the show was Perth-based Carla Geneve, on her very first American tour (and obviously her first time in Minneapolis). I would describe her music as singer/songwriter, especially with just her solo on guitar and lyrical song. You can see a bit of Courtney Love (as referenced in one of her songs) and Courtney Barnett (for the thoughtful lyrics).

Geneve is still quite new to the music scene, her bio lists her debuting in the West Australian scene in 2017 (but it seems like she’s been playing local music since as early as 2010). Her debut single “Greg’s Discount Chemist”, got strong support from Australia national radio Triple J.

With new musicians, transcribing their setlist is next to impossible because they haven’t released too many songs. In fact, officially, Geneve’s only got one six-track self-titled EP that dropped on June 7th via Dot Dash / Remote Control Records. Most of the songs I’ve listed on her setlist don’t have official song titles, and 100% will be different song titles when she does release them in an album.

Still, you can tell that she’s got a lot of songs in her, and as one of “West Australian’s Six Brightest Young Stars of 2019”, you can bet we’ll be hearing more from her.

There were a couple of stand-out tracks from her set, first is her debut single, “Greg’s Discount Chemist”, which is a great descriptive song. Unfortunately, in America, no one calls it “the chemist” (it’s commonly known as Pharmacy or Drug Store), so it might not really take off in America.

The other song, is about women in the music industry. The song might actually be biographical, describing her road to creating a band and being the “only pair of tits” in an all-male music festival. I think that song might do really well with fans of strong women songs.

As you know, we’ve been following Fremantle’s San Cisco since the review of their debut single, “Golden Revolver” in April 2011 (the band’s average age was about 18 at the time). We’ve watched their rise with superstardom with “Awkward” (hitting #7 in Triple J's Hottest 100 Countdown) in Oct 2012. By this time, San Cisco toured the USA market for the first time, we got a chance to chat with Jordi Davieson at CMJ 2012.

Around this time, Minneapolis’ local radio, The Current randomly decided to test out and played “Awkward”, not thinking much of it. That one play generated so much interested from listeners that the Current was forced to play that song again (thanks to so many phone calls asking for them to play that song again). Thanks to the Current, there’s always been really, really strong support for the youth band since their debut in the Twin Cities at Turf Club, St Paul (21 Oct 2012).

Since then, we’ve never missed the band (having seen and review them a total of eight times). Unfortunately, the band had to cancel their 7th Street Entry in August 2017 and that meant that the last official time the band’s been in Minneapolis was in Jun 2015 at the now-defunct Triple Rock Social Club (they’ve played there three times!)

It’s been four long years, and by now, the band’s already well into The Water (released in 2017) and already have a forthcoming (yet to be titled) new 2019 album “in the can”. We are also presented with a new bassist called Jennifer Aslett, who replaced Nick Gardner since 2018.

Now that we’re all caught up with San Cisco, I have to say that it’s amazing that San Cisco’s audience seem to be YOUNGER than previously seen at their shows! This is partly thanks to The Cedar’s all-ages policy (one of the few local venues that is always all-ages), so the average age of the audience is under 20 years old. This is not a bad thing at all.

Although the band have released three albums, as you can see from the setlist, they mostly concentrated on the later two albums. Only two songs from their self-titled 2012 album were played: the mega-hit song “Awkward” and “Fred Astaire”. It would’ve been nice to hear “Golden Revolver”, but I’m sure the band is sick to death of playing their first single.

During “introducing the band” (before “Wash It All Away”), Jordi thanked The Current for supporting them in the early days of the band. He also reminisces about The Triple Rock Social Club, mentioning that it was the only venue that had feedback monitors directly faced toward his feet, so that his feet would feel every thunderous bass line. It’s like he missed the venue, but not its sound system.

There were a couple of new songs introduced, the first is the live debut of “Skin”. According to Jordi, the band’s never played it before and is going to be the lead single from their forthcoming 2019 album. The other song is called “Flaws” (I misheard Jordi saying “Floors” with his thick Australian accent), which was played solo as the first “encore” song.

San Cisco at Cedar Cultural Center, Minneapolis (14 June 2019)

P.S., Sorry about all this inside baseball notes, but the last time we covered a show at the Cedar Cultural Center was in 30 April 2018 (over one year). There are a few reasons. One, First Avenue, which books most of the shows we cover, purchased the Turf Club (in 2013), the Fine Line Music Café (in 2018), and added the Palace Theatre (in 2016). Between First Avenue’s six different venues (First Avenue, 7th Street Entry, The Record Room, Fine Line, Turf Club, and Palace Theatre) and Live Nation’s two venues (The Armory and Varsity Theater), there are very few songs left for the Cedar. To be fair, the Cedar does book their own shows, but their specialty is World Music, which we generally don’t cover. Hopefully, this is not our last Cedar coverage. We’d like to cover more Cedar shows, as we’ve mentioned many times before, this is a really good venue for listening to music.

We love Australia’s San Cisco. We’ve seen the band over 10 times (see our timeline on the sidebar).

For promotion for their third album The Water, the band was supposed to play Minneapolis - but unfortunately, at the last minute they had to cancel their 7th Street Entry in 2017. After two years, they band will be back - hopefully to play some of those The Water tracks!

Show up early to check out Western Australian artist Carla Geneve, touring in support of her debut self-titled EP that came out yesterday (June 7th) via Dot Dash / Remote Control Records. Geneve came on the music scene with her debut single “Greg’s Discount Chemist” was released to overwhelming local radio Triple J.

Talking about her video for the lead single, “Yesterday’s Clothes,” (from the debut self-titled EP), she said, “I wanted the video to reflect the personal nature of the song. To me, sitting alone in front of a camera is a vulnerable situation, a lot like releasing a song to the world which describes private parts of my life. The song is about falling out of love with someone and feeling guilty about it. I wrote it at a time when I was burning the candle at both ends and had no energy left to try to deal with the end of a relationship. Most of the words came when I was doing a long drive back from some gig or another in regional WA. I’d been up all night and had to be somewhere the next day, so I hadn’t had a shower or changed clothes. ”

Tour dates:

06/10 - Los Angeles, CA @ Teragram Ballroom

In their most extensive US tour, Circles Around The Sun (CATS) will be stopping by the Turf Club on Sunday, June 16th, in support of their double album Let It Wander (Rhino Records).

No opening band listed, but considering they have a double album … playing a double set might not be a problem for this band.

Trivia: Did you know that CATS was only supposed to record a handful of Grateful Dead-influenced instrumentals to be played during the set breaks at the Dead's "Fare Thee Well" concerts in 2015? The response was so positive and the fans demanded it - so the band continued making music together all these years.

New York’s Charly Bliss is back in town, headlining the 7th Street Entry this June 16th in support of their sophomore album Young Enough (Barsuk Records). This show is sold out.

We saw Charly Bliss in May 2017 and wrote, “Though they’ve been a band for half a decade, it seems like the time is now for Charly Bliss, the four-piece breaking through to alternative radio and singer Eva Hendricks was in full celebration mode, even dressing in a fetching white dress, reminiscent of Doll Parts-era Courtney Love. The group is in support of debut full length, Guppy (Barsuk Records) released just a couple weeks ago, with the Onion’s AV Club already deeming it “an instant classic”. The band’s sound is akin to the likes of Sleater-Kinney and Veruca Salt (who they’ve both toured with) and consists of Hendricks, her older brother Sam, bassist (and former boyfriend) Dan Shure, and guitarist Spencer Fox, who she met at age fifteen and who actually voiced Dash in Disney’s The Incredibles and Mudbud in Air Buddies.”

Australia's San Cisco recently stopped by the Triple Rock Social Club in Minneapolis on Monday, their fifth time in the Twin Cities (their fourth at the Triple Rock).

MOTHXR

Opening up for San Cisco was MOTHXR (pronounced like 'mother'), displacing all-girls trio The Prettiots. MOTHXR played some of their singles, "Stranger" and "Centerfold" in near-darkness. Near the end of their set, singer Jimmy Giannopoulos experienced some microphone difficulties.

With only a handful of singles, expect the band to work on a full length sometime this year.

As for San Cisco, what can I say? They've grown up since the last time we saw them. Singer Jordi Davieson grew out his hair and sports a trimmed beard.

Setlist

The last few times we saw the band, they only had their debut album and basically they would play the entire album, plus some unreleased songs. Basically they played every song known to them. For this latest tour, they have a new album Gracetown, which Davieson said that was a real town just three hours south of Perth, Australia.

Prior to playing their most known hit 'Beer Song' "Awkward", Davieson thanked The Current 89.3 FM and the fans at the show. He said that Minneapolis is one of the few cities that when they play, people show up.

For this tour, the band created a different arrangement for "Awkward". This is understandable, considering that they have played that song a million times and desperately needed to keep it new and refreshing.

Most of the songs that they played from Gracetown felt like they were all about relationships, at least from what Davieson observed through his friends and friend's friends, particularly on "Wash It All Away".

Drummer Scarlett Stevens has more vocal duties on the new album as well, as she took lead vocals on "Magic" and duet for "Super Slow" (no drums for that song!)

They ended their set with another new song, "Run", this time dedicating the song "to anyone named Isabella."

The encore started with Davieson going back on stage playing "Skool" by himself. The rest of the band joined him for an older single "Fred Astaire".

San Cisco's Gracetown is out now. They end their North American tour at the Bowery Ballroom in New York this July 2nd. Catch them on this Gracetown tour.

San Cisco at The Gothic Theatre, Englewood (08/06/13)

Read More San Cisco We've covered San Cisco live five times (three in Minneapolis, one in Los Angeles, and one in Sydney). Yes, we love them, so it's nice to catch them again last night at the Triple Rock Social Club in Minneapolis. ...… Australian pop wunderkinds, San Cisco, rolled through Colorado last week for the second time in six months. Having previously supported The Vaccines in February at Denver’s Bluebird Theater, this show marked San Cisco’s first headlining tour at a venue of equal size, The Gothic Theatre. Describing Denver as bassist, Nick Gardner’s favorite city in America, the band welcomed a healthy crowd to the venue for a Tuesday night. Although acting in the role of the headliner, the show felt very much like an opener, with the entire set and encore pushing just 45 minutes. Opening with “Lyall”, the band moved swiftly through their set hitting classics (i.e., “Golden Revolver” and “Awkward”) to close their performance with “Fred Astaire”. The concert felt rushed and the band overall exhausted and eager to exit the stage. With the exception of a couple hits, the audience mirrored the band’s momentum with equally low enthusiasm. Marking the last week of their US tour, the band will return home to rejuvenate before heading out on their European tour in October. 10/01/13 Strom, Munich 10/02/13 MTC, Cologne 10/03/13 Privatclub, Berlin 10/04/13 Prinzenbar, Hamburg 10/06/13 Haunt, Brighton 10/09/13 Temple at the Institute, Birmingham 10/10/13 Rescue Rooms, Nottingham 10/12/13 Thekla, Bristol 10/14/13 Belgrave Music Hall, Leeds 10/15/13 Classic Grand, Glasgow 10/16/13 Deaf Institute, Manchester 10/17/13 Scala, London     kira ♥ weheartmusic.com ♥ sancisco.com

We've covered San Cisco live five times (three in Minneapolis, one in Los Angeles, and one in Sydney). Yes, we love them, so it's nice to catch them again last night at the Triple Rock Social Club in Minneapolis.

SMALLPOOLS

Opening up for all the U.S. dates so far is Smallpools, a band based out of Los Angeles (although their guitarist Mike Kamerman said that he's from New Jersey, singer Sean Scanlon is from New York, and everyone else was from Oregon?)

The turnout to last night show was incredible, especially for a Wednesday. Fans packed in early (always a good sign when there is a line before the doors open), because there were a lot of cross-over fans who wanted to see Smallpools as well as San Cisco.

From my understanding, this was Smallpools' very first national tour, so they were quite excited to play Minneapolis for the first time. They seem like a really new band, playing songs from their Have a Great Summer EP (including "Over and Over" and the set closer "Dreaming").

Highlight of their set is a cover of the New Radicals' "You Get What You Give", which may, or may not, give you an indication of their happy-fun-'kick your asses'-summer-sound.

Before San Cisco came on stage, someone had this bright idea of giving balloons to the audience. At first, I thought it was part of the show, but as singer Jordi Davieson's reaction to these "dangerous" balloons, I realized the band had no part in the whole balloon-thing.

This was my fourth time seeing San Cisco, so I was expecting the usual set ("Golden Revolver" being fairly in early with "Awkward" saving their best for last), but I was pleasantly surprised that they mixed up the setlist on this "Beach" tour. Instead, it would seem that this playlist would showcase songs taken from their debut self-titled album, which came out a few weeks ago on RCA Records.

Jordi Davieson

Of course, the transition was easy for me, having already heard many of these songs and demos from their previous live appearance and having been following their musical career since 2011.

Remember when I told you that I think "Golden Revolver" is perhaps their best song? It would seem that other fans would agree with me, having heard, for the first time, people singing back the lyrics ("and you're not even remotely kind!"). It was nice to hear that other people love this song as well.

As for the encore (yes, there was one this time), San Cisco came back to do a Daft Punk cover of "Get Lucky" and another song from the self-titled album called "No Friends".

Anyway, it's always a pleasure to see San Cisco whenever they are in town. Hope to see them back here sooner than later.

The band's front man Micah Schnabel talk about recording of the new album: "We've recorded there a few times and we have just fallen in love with it. We sleep in the old farm house and wake up every morning to go out and record all day and night. The studio is actually up in what would be the hayloft and it overlooks the farm. It's just a great place to be locked away and not have the distractions of every day life."
