The upcoming show is long sold out (even at a higher-than-average pricing of $75 a ticket), but to justify the higher price, fans who bought a ticket online, were also given a copy of the new album.

Seth Lakeman, who contributes viola and fiddle to three tracks from Carry Fire, will open the show.

The Mowgli’s Tour Poster Read More The Mowgli's Next up were The Mowgli's, an indie rock/folk band from southern California. Going into the show, I had no idea what to expect. Simply put, I was blown away.

first-avenue.com

The last time we saw California neo-hippie band The Mowgli’s, they were co-headlining with Canadian Lights in 2015. We noted, “A spirited feel-good 65min. of hummable tunes followed, many culled from their latest, Kids in Love (Photo Finish/Island Records) which was released earlier this spring. ‘Love is Easy’ was dedicated to anyone “who’s had their heart smashed into a bazillion pieces” and co-vocalist Katie Jayne Earl took time out in the set to re-inforce the band’s mission of spreading love and kindness, and mentioned that all the band’s proceeds from ‘Room for All of Us’ were going to charity.”

Be sure to show up early to check out Mainland. The post-punk/pop taco-loving trio (singer Jordan Topf, guitarist Corey Mullee and bassist Alex Pitta) recently appeared on Billboard to talk about their “Hometown” release (Feb 16). This isn’t the first time Mainland opened for Mowgli’s, they were previously billed together in February 2016 (their first time in Minneapolis), and we said, “… plays a quick-paced, hooky hybrid of punk, garage, new wave, and high-energy alternative. The crowd appreciated the adrenalin-boosted tempo change and clapped along with the chorus of ‘Not as Cool as Me’ in appreciation.”

Los Angeles duo Girlpool recently stopped by the Triple Rock Social Club in Minneapolis (October 23) to celebrate their sophomore album Powerplant (Anti- Records).

Chicago’s Lala Lala (Lillie West, Karla Bernasconi, Abby Black) opened up the show. The band had a DIY girl rock sound to them and their music seemed to fit in really well with the Girlpool audience. They ended their brief 30-minute set featured many songs from their debut record Sleepyhead, ending with ‘Future Flower’, a song that they’ve confessed had never been attempted to play live before.

Next up was Philadelphia, by the way of New York, Palm (not to be confused with Palms), a band that suffers from that common-band-name, making searching for them difficult.

After hearing the sad news that the Triple Rock Social Club would be closing its door come November 22nd, the four-piece (guitarist/singer Eve Alpert, guitarist/singer Kasra Kurt, drummer Hugo Stanley, bassist Gerasimos “Gerry” Livitsanos) band was pleased to have the opportunity to play the much beloved punk club.

The band, at least Eve, also announced that they have fallen in love with the city and decided to move here after this year. This isn’t the first time a Philadelphia band moved here, I know at least one other band, Strange Names, relocated here as well.

Their 45-min set included ‘Ankles’, ‘Child Actor’ and their set closer ‘Two Toes’.

Girlpool closed out the night. Although they are normally a duo of Harmony Tividad and Cleo Tucker, they’re joined on stage by a live touring band, synth Joshua Sushman, guitarist Lauren Early, and drummer Ross Chait.

The band mentioned that they thought about cancelling the gig because they had to pull out Tividad’s wisdom tooth recently. She was still in pain, but soldiered.

The group was last seen in the area in May 2017, when they released Powerplant, but decided to come back around since they were already scheduled to play a couple of Fall festivals, including Sound on Sound Festival in Austin, Texas.

Unlike Palm, we know that Girlpool will not be moving here, as Tucker gave out a loud, “It’s cold here, holy sh***!” (it was only sweater weather in Minneapolis for the natives on this night).

Like their previous 2017 tour, Girlpool played mostly Powerplant songs, but throwing in some Before the World Was Big (Wichita Recordings) to fill out the time.

UK’s Nothing But Thieves is back in town. The band’s self-titled debut album is out via Sony Music U.K./RCA Records and has sold over 250k and streamed over 174 Million tracks globally to date. Check out the band at the Fine Line Music Café this Monday.

We caught the band in 2016 and noted, “Essex, UK band Nothing But Thieves didn’t have to commit any crimes to attract attention- the band is gaining more than enough on their own, clearly on the rise and obviously already playing too small a venue, on their recent sold-out stop to the Turf Club in St. Paul.”

Support for Nothing But Thieves’ U.S. headlining “Broken Machine Tour” will come from Missio and Airways.
