THE CURRENT’S 13TH BIRTHDAY PARTY
First Avenue
Fri 01/19/2018 (7pm/$20)
Sat 01/20/2018 (7pm/$20)

It’s the annual local favorite radio station The Current’s 13th Birthday Party, and Bully (aka Alicia Bognanno) is headlining the first night with Now, Now, The Social Animals, and Dem Atlas.
For the second night, they booked JD McPherson, Ron Gallo, Lady Lark, and Reina Del Cid.
We caught Bully in January 2016 and noted, “Their set, although short, was packed full of energy. There were times when the music sounded like something you could hear on your local alternative rock radio channel but then there were also songs that sounded like Brody Dale of the Distillers was making a comeback. There were straight up punk songs mixed into a set of good old-fashioned alternative rock.”
Bully’s sophomore album Losing came out last Fall on Sub Pop. She’ll be continuing her tour in February:

BEN FOLDS
Orchestra Hall
Fri 01/19/2018 (7pm/$55)
Sat 01/20/2018 (7pm/$55)
minnesotaorchestra.org
Multi-platinum selling singer/songwriter/producer Ben Folds is playing a two-night residency at the Orchestra Hall in Minnesota. He recently released Concert 2015-2016 on New West Records.
We saw Ben Folds Five in 2012 and said, “Ben Folds told this great story about their first gig in Minneapolis at the 7th Street Entry. If you live around here, you know that place is tiny, so I had this vision of their grand piano taking up 90% of the stage. It was the first time the band came to Minneapolis and they had no idea how cold it was. It was snowing, negative 60 degree (at least that's what they said!), and they were moving the piano outside. They had "jackets" on but it was so cold, they ran back inside - leaving the piano in the middle of the street! Lessons learned.”
POKEY LAFARGE
+ Indianola
Turf Club
Fri 01/19/2018 (8pm/$16)
Sat 01/20/2018 (8pm/$16)
turfclub.net
Pokey Lafarge is playing a two-night residency at the Turf Club in St Paul in support of his new album Manic Revelations (Rounder Records). For some odd reason, the venue is listing Friday’s show as “8 a.m.”, which I’m assuming they actually meant 8pm.
STICK FIGURE

Local Minneapolis band Blinds is having an EP release party this Tuesday.
Their description:
'Some Thing for No Thing' is the second EP release from Minneapolis natives blinds. The record was a hands-on homage to the lo-fi nature of the early 90’s grunge scene all while using modern influences from Kings of Leon to Interpol.
