GRACE POTTER
at Minnesota Zoo
Sunday, 08/07/16, 7pm ($47)

The last time we saw
Grace Potter, she played at the State Theatre
in October 2015 and we said that the seated show was just the wrong venue for her. Her fans are interested in dancing, and these seats just felt awkward.
I guess Potter is just exploring her options and she’s back, this time at another seated outdoor amphitheater at the Minnesota Zoo. If you miss her on Sunday, she will appear again on Monday night.
In typical zoo shows, they end before 10:30pm, so it’s not to disturb the animals at the zoo.
Brynn Elliott will open. He was previously was in town in April 2016 with
Parachute.

Maryland’s
Prinze George is a trio consisting of instrumentalist Kenny Grimm, singer Naomi Almquist and drummer Isabelle De Leon. The band is touring in support of their debut
Illiterate Synth Pop album... and stopping by Minneapolis next Wednesday. Minneapolis is somewhat special to the group, as they’ve started to record the record with Evan Bakke (Prince, Fraea, Soul Asylum) at Sounds Expensive Studio in Minneapolis, during last year’s harsh winter. Of course, it was left unfinished and the band would return a few times, inbetween touring with Albert Hammond Jr., Little Boots, Walk the Moon, etc., to finally finish recording in early 2016.
Lady Midnight is listed as opener.
