Garrett Borns, known by his stage name Børns, is currently on a very successful tour in support of his second album Blue Madonna. The album got a lot of buzz already, thanks to a little help from Lana Del Rey, who lent her voice and promotion behind the album’s opening song “God Save Our Young Blood.”
Mikky Ekko and Charlotte Cardin to open.

Cinderella’s singer Tom Keifer is headlining the Medina Entertainment Center on Friday.
We saw Keifer in 2014 and wrote, “Tom Keifer is best known as the lead singer and chief songwriter for 80’s blues hard rock band Cinderella, but recently released a solo album, The Way Life Goes (Merovee Records/Warner Music) which had been in-the-making for over ten years. Keifer looked like he’d aged fairly well and almost evenly split his 73 min. set between solo and Cinderella songs, along with a Beatles cover thrown in for good measure.”

Josh Ritter and his band The Royal City Band will be trekking through North America in support of Ritter’s new album Gathering (Pytheas Recordings/ Thirty Tigers).
We previously caught Ritter in Feb 2016 and said, “More than just a lyric from the latest single from Josh Ritter and The Royal City Band, it seemed to also be a mission statement for the evening and Ritter and band’s buoyant 105 min performance at the Pantages Theater in Minneapolis.”
