Esmé Patterson is back in Minneapolis, touring in support of her new album We Were Wild (Grand Jury).



We previously caught her with San Fermin earlier in April 2016 and wrote, “Not all the songs were new, about half her set was taken from her concept album Woman to Woman, which was about her response to famous women in songs. For example, the song “Never Chase a Man” is about her response to Dolly Parton’s “Jolene” and “Bluebird” was her response to The Beatles’ “Eleanor Rigby”.”



Special local guests The Awful Truth (aka Brent Colbert) and M.T. Foyer to open.

Athens’ New Madrid is touring in support of their third album magnetkingmagnetqueen (Normaltown Records). We previously caught the band (singer/guitarist Phil McGill, guitarist Graham Powers, bassist Ben Hackett, and drummer Alex Woolley) in December 2015 and noted, “New Madrid seemed to lean more towards the psychedelic rock end of the spectrum. This four piece quietly took the stage and wowed the audience with their vocal harmonies that were good enough to give you goosebumps.”

Teenage Moods to open.
