I may be by around 8 to see Caroline Smith, who is returning home from a tour in Europe. In addition to the Morning Show appearance, Smith will be playing the Minnesota Music Summit that evening at the Amsterdam Bar & Grill in St Paul. Smith & Sleep will also be at Stone Arch Bridge Festival in the St Anthony area/near Nicollet Island on June 14 at 9pm. I believe both events are free.

James Bay’s debut acoustic EP The Dark of the Morning is coming out July 22, 2013, on Republic Records. Before the EP, a lead single, “Move Together”, was released last Monday. You can hear the song on soundcloud.com.
The 22-year-old will be on tour in the U.S. this June (with select dates supporting Beth Orton), before returning to his home in London to play Barclaycard British Summer Time with The Rolling Stones at the iconic Hyde Park this July 13th.
