Son Lux, who recently released the Everything Everywhere All At Once Official Motion Picture Soundtrack recently, will stop by the Fine Line Music Café on May 7th.



Composer, producer, and video artist Emily Wells will open. We saw Wells in Oct 2012 and said, “Emily Wells is a one-woman band who uses live recording loops in her songs. Songs on her set was mostly from her album Mama, including “Symphony 6: Fair Thee Well & The Requiem Mix”, “Fire Song”, and “Passenger”. The odd song, not on her album was called “Don’t Use Me Up,” and her closer, a cover of Little Willie John’s “Fever.””

at Fillmore

This spring, legendary British band Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark (or better abbreviated to OMD) will go on their “Souvenir Greatest Hits” tour. The band will play some of their biggest hits, so if there is one tour to see these guys, it’s this 2022 show at the Fillmore in Minneapolis on May 7th.



We caught OMD in Mar 2018 and noted, “Of course, who could not love hearing their biggest hit single, “If You Leave”, which many fans probably first heard it on John Hughes’ Pretty in Pink film in 1986. The film soundtrack helped moved OMD’s song to #4 on Billboard Hot 100 that summer. It is the song that many fans came to hear, and as evident, about a hundred cellphones went up in the air to record the moment.”



In the Valley Below will open the show.
