Here is the wrap-up for last month: March 2016.

Officially, I’m out of winter hibernation … and thanks to SXSW in Austin, Texas, we got a lot of bands booking Midwest tours. March and April are generally our favorite time of the year.

So, looking back at our 24 shows we covered:

  • Best Billing goes to the Meiko and Marie Digby at Cedar (03/14). Billed as “The Hapa Tour” the concept behind this is that they are both Asian mixed.
  • Canadian Award goes to the Basia Bulat at Cedar Cultural Center (03/08). Like Basia Bulat’s previous appearance, she was quite happy and positively glowing.
  • Buzz Award goes to the Foxing at Triple Rock (03/04). Loads of young fans helped build up a massive Foxing fanbase in Minneapolis.
  • Most Entertaining Award goes to the Ty Segall at First Ave (03/09). Segall has been around for ages, but keeping it fresh, he re-invented himself as a giant man-baby. Very interesting…
  • Local Artist Award goes to Soul Asylum at Electric Fetus (03/25). The local band has been around for ages, but it’s always good to see them perform.
  • Best Dressed Award goes to Lucius at First Ave (03/23). They have capes!
  • Non Music Award goes to Daniel Clowes at Magers & Quinn (03/31).
