Ever since we saw Vintage Trouble at the Nether Bar in Minneapolis in Mar 2013, we knew the band was special: “Beginning with the One/Two punch of 'Hard Times (They are Coming)' and 'Blues Hand Me Down', the crowd was immediately in a frenzy; asked all evening to call-and-respond, clap along, move front to back, and generally become a part of the show.”

The rock/soulful blues/R&B group is returning to the Twin Cities area this Wednesday, December 4th, at the Amsterdam Bar & Hall, as part of their Chapter II World Tour.

Emarosa is returning to Minneapolis this December 5th at the 7th Street Entry, as part of their mostly sold out Peach Club Tour.

We saw the band in Mar 2016 and wrote, “These guys are yet another band who had a completely insane live show last night along with great music. Singer Bradley Walden was completely out of control in all of the right ways. He started the show by jumping into the modest crowd where he proceeds to roll around on the ground, get piggy back rides from random people in the crowd, good god this guy was everywhere. Even when he was on stage he was insane. He would crawl behind the drum set and then jump over the whole kit... drummer and all. It was impossible to take your eyes off of Bradley because you wanted to know what he was going to do next.”
