THE DAMNED
at Fine Line Music Cafe
Saturday 04/22/17, 7pm ($25/Sold Out)
finelinemusic.com
Legendary English punk/rock band The Damned is celebrating their 40th Anniversary with an upcoming U.S. tour. Since the influential band don’t really make their way to Minneapolis that often, I feel this is a very important show that you should be aware of. Of course, their many fans agreed, and the show is long sold out.
Expect to hear all chart-topping singles on this tour, including fan-favorites, ‘Love Song’ and ‘Smash It Up’.
No opening band is listed on the venue’s website, but the poster lists Bleached. We’ve been a fan of the sisters in Bleached since 2012 when they opened up for Veronica Falls.

BETTY WHO
at Triple Rock Social Club
Saturday 04/22/17, 8pm ($20/Sold Out)
triplerocksocialclub.com
No one is asking “Who is Betty Who?” anymore, seeing as Betty Who has been selling out some U.S. Tour Dates – including this forthcoming appearance at the Triple Rock Social Club this Saturday, April 22nd. We’ve been aware of the pop singer since February 2014 and very happy to see she’s doing quite well with her recent release of The Valley (RCA Records).
Vérité (aka Kelsey Byrne) to open.
We previously caught the singer on
May 2016 and wrote, “With help from Andrew on drums and Mike on guitars/keys, Vérité basically played almost everything that she’s ever written… and even throwing in a Childish Gambino cover song ‘Sober’ to reach her headlining 45+ min set. However, based on her fans and Vérité’s drive to write heartfelt electropop songs… she’ll be back again soon…”
Vérité’s album Somewhere in Between is out now.

THE WEDDING PRESENT
at Turf Club
Saturday 04/22/17, 8pm ($20)
turfclub.net
Truly it will be the gift that keeps on giving when Leeds quartet The Wedding Present drop by the St. Paul next Saturday, April 22nd for an intimate show at the Turf Club. The Present has been doing their thing now for over 3 decades, effervescent rock with a post-punk flair featuring the delightful British drone of lead singer and only original member David Gedge. Though the band has gone through several line-up changes, one thing remains the same: those fuzzy melodies were made for blasting out your car window while driving the city watching the flowers bloom. Check out The Wedding Present’s newest release 2016’s Going, Going… which was one of my favorites of 2016! But don’t neglect the band’s impressive back catalogue, including Seamonsters (1991), an album recorded at the famous Pachyderm studios in Cannon Falls with your boyfriend’s favorite producer, Steve Albini.
Colleen Green, billed as Colleen Green Band, will warm up the show. The Wedding Present loves these guys, and after seeing her (complete with Vuart) in September 2015, we can see why.

Other shows in the area:
04/22/17 Allan Rayman will be back in Minnesota, over at the 7th Street Entry.
We caught Rayman in 2016 and noted, “Then, as soon as Allan started singing, the crowd erupted and sang pretty much every word with him through his forty-five-minute set. Hip-hop music was the name of his game and he was slaying the competition.”
$19.
04/23/17
Sam Rae will be stopping by the Warming House in Minneapolis this Sunday, April 23rd, in support of her record Bring Us To New Islands (to be released April 21st). If you’re not familiar with the venue, this is a small, self-described as a “listening room”.
Holly Munoz to open. Note: Show is at 3:30pm. $10.
04/23/17
Chaz Bundick (of Toro Y Moi) and psych-jazz duo The Mattson 2 are touring, billed as Chaz Bundick Meets The Mattson 2. The collaboration group will be ending their tour at the Triple Rock Social Club this Sunday. Spin described their music, “between a George Benson and an Al Green.”
Madeline Kenney is listed as opener.
$15.
04/24/17
COIN (not to be confused with Japanese band Coin) is back at the Triple Rock Social Club next Monday.
The band was previously in town at the Go Show in December 2016, and we said “Closing with the kissing anthem ‘Talk Too Much’, the song has received heavy airplay and obviously the crowd’s ear, as they sang along with the band at each chorus.”
Coin’s
How Will You Know If You Never Try will be available everywhere April 21.
Arizona to open the show. Yep, the band’s not from Arizona, but it’s definitely a better sounding name than “New Jersey”.
$15.50.
