Los Angeles’ Silversun Pickups will be headlining First Avenue tomorrow.
We recently caught Silversun Pickups in May 2016 with Foals, and wrote, “This alternative rock band from Los Angeles has been around for a while and seem to finally be getting the recognition they deserve. They released Better Nature last year and played a lot of songs off of that but did not forget about their three previous releases.”

SONDRE LERCHEat 7th St Entry

Norwegian singer Sondre Lerche (currently based in New York City) will be stopping by the 7th Street Entry tomorrow (April 25th), touring in support of his eighth studio album Pleasure (PLZ label).
The new record is the followup to Lerche’s “divorce” album from Mona Fastwold.
We previously caught Lerche in New York in 2014 and wrote, “The crowd seemed to be quite enthusiastic, which Lerche most definitely fed off of and gave the audience several opportunities to sing along. Combining both older songs like “Sleep on Needles,” and “Two Way Monologue” with new songs from the just-released album like “Bad Law”
and “Legends”, the crowd got to revel in the oldies and enjoy the experiencing the new material live.”

Tycho returns to Minnesota, over at the new Palace Theatre. New York electro duo Beacon will be opening up the show. Both Beacon and Tycho came to town in 2015 and we noted, “Opening up the show was Beacon, a duo (Thomas Mullarney III and Jacob Gossett) from Brooklyn, New York, playing some tracks from L1 EP (Ghostly International) to near darkness with a custom film, projected onto the band. We’ve seen the electronic duo before, last December 2012, and I wrote that they had “big buzz.” While at the time, I said they were ‘thunderous rap bass’, they seem to have taken it down a notch to more minimalistic and atmospheric…. at least based on hearing them perform on Sunday.”

The xx has a sold out show at the new Palace Theatre in St Paul. The trio’s third album I See You debut at #1 in the UK and #2 in the US album charts.
The last time we saw the xx, it was in 2012 and we said, “The xx show was a little somber, with flashing lights at the appropriate beats. I was expecting more dancing from the audience, but for the most part, they kept very still. Which is cool, as someone pointed out that it was nice to see people actually listening and watching the show on stage.”
