Minneapolis: November 22 to November 25, 2015

See companion “Wild” Minneapolis Shows.

The Royal Concept is returning to Minneapolis tomorrow, November 22nd, at the Nether Bar (inside Mill City Nights). The Swedish bandwas previously in town at the Triple Rock Social Club in December 2013



Although their concert poster clearly lists Parade of Lights as national support act, the Venue website only lists New Yorkers Tribe Society as sole opener.



I can confirm with you that we are excited that Parade of Lights will be playing the Nether Bar on Sunday. The Los Angeles (and Las Vegas) quartet is touring in support of their debut album Feeling Electric, which came out this Summer via Astralwerks (which I’ve previously mentioned is always one of my favorite record label).



We previously caught the band in 2014 and described their show as “a buoyant set of fresh songs” and “nicely polished, incredibly catchy, and very radio-friendly, buoyed by solid electronic and traditional percussion.”



Tour dates:

Local JT’s Jazz Implosion has a residency at the Icehouse every Monday. For this Monday’s show, they are presenting “Jen Shyu’s Solo Opera Solo Rites: Seven Breaths”, featuring Jen Shyu and drummer JT Bates.



New York’s Jonah Parzen-Johnson will also be at the show, lending a hand with his baritone saxophone and synthesizer, currently on his second tour of 2015.
Parzen-Johnson’s latest is a travelogue, Three Reasons To Live Here, which was created as a result of spending nine weeks on tour.



Here’s how the publisher described the book:

Jonah Parzen-Johnson Tour Dates:

“The New Lennon and McCartney”, Chris Difford and Glenn Tilbrook (billed under their popular band name Squeeze) will be playing an acoustic set across America this November. The exciting news is that they have a new album called Cradle to the Grave… featuring their first new songs since 1998’s Domino.



One half of Squeeze, Tilbrook was recently in town last year, playing tracks from his acoustic solo album Happy Ending.



After selling out their November 24th show at the Cedar, they quickly added another date (November 25th), which also quickly sold out. If it wasn’t for the fact that Thursday (November 26th) wasn’t Thanksgiving, I’m sure they could have ‘squeezed’ in another additional date….
