It was a really good turnout on a Wednesday show as devoted fans were still in line before Geographer's appearance at the 7th Street Entry in Minneapolis.

GRMLN

Their touring partner, GRMLN, opened up the show. As expected, especially with a rather new band, they mostly did songs from their debut self-titled album, including their latest single "Teenage Rhythm", mixing in some songs from their 2012 EP Explore.

GRMLN is basically Yoodoo Park, but for this current tour, he's assembled a full band to play live. The rhythm guitarist might not have known how to play an unscheduled/"newer" song, but hey, no one really noticed - it sounded fine to the audience.

As for Geographer, as you can see from their setlist, the majority of their set is taken from last year's Myth album, which Jess described as "I believe this album is meant for the romantics, is the soundtrack to that moment of adventure, where grabbing the hand of the one you love and taking that drive up the coast is the only thing that really matters in the world."

Songs like "Life Of Crime", "Kaleidoscope", "The Myth Of Youth", "Blinders", "Shell Beach", "Lover's Game", and "The Boulder", do have that love and adventures theme.

Rounding out the rest of their setlist were from their previous album Animal Shapes.

Geographer and GRMLN are currently on tour together. All dates show on the sidebar features Geographer and GRMLN. Go check them out, but show up early to get a good dancefloor spot and to check out GRMLN. GRMLN is currently on tour for their self-titled album from Carpark Records and Geographer is touring for Myth, out now on Modern Art Records.

GRMLN (aka Japanese-born Yoodoo Park) just released his new album Empire came out on June 4th via Carpark Records. They also recently showcased their new single "Teenage Rhythm", which you can watch on YouTube.

The video director, Tim Hendrix, wanted to capture the 70s: "it looks like a gaggle of geriatrics smoking weed in the park, partying hard, and beating the sh** out of each other at house shows. Everyone remembers the glory days of their 70s…"

The band is in the middle of their North American tour with Geographer, a band that Jess is in love with.
