Fans are Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga about Spoon coming back to town… The popular band sold out a double night at the Palace Theatre this upcoming week: September 15-16.
Spoon’s Hot Thoughts album came out in March on Matador Records.
Also worth noting is that Merge Records will be re-releasing a remastered Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga as a special double vinyl and album (with bonus CD & EP). The reissue will be in stores on October 20th… and if you get it from the Merge store, it comes bundled with a T-Shirt.
Chicago’s Twin Peaks (nothing to do with David Lynch weird television show) will open.

The first time I was meant to see Widowspeak, it was supposed to be in June 2012… but their van broke down driving from Chicago to Minneapolis. I eventually caught the Brooklyn band as headliner at the 7th Street in October of that year.
Widowspeak’s new album Expect the Best is out now and they are very proud of the new record… and they are very excited to play these new tracks on this 2017 tour (which starts tomorrow!)

We caught Dan Croll in November 2016 and noted, “UK folktronic singer-songwriter Dan Croll (who is one to watch as well) opened the evening with a criminally short but enjoyable thirty-five minute set of songs from his 2014 full length Sweet Disarray (Deram Records/Universal) as well as some new music set to appear on his next album.”
That “next album” is called Emerging Adulthood and it’s out now on Communion Group Ltd. Croll is touring in support of the new album and will be stopping by the Turf Club in St Paul this Saturday.
