with Michaela Anne

Celebrated singer-songwriter Joe Pug is currently on tour in support of Nation of Heat | Revisited, a reimagined, full-band version of his acclaimed 2008 debut. The original Nation of Heat remains Pug’s most popular release, with more than 20 million streams on Spotify alone.
Look, it’s been 14 years since that album came out, and in that time, Joe Pug has grown and changed… so revisiting the album that started it all, he’s going to play it a little differently now. Maybe he’ll approach it with a different arrangement, maybe the song might work better stripped down…
Michaela Anne to open.

12/01/2022 ThursdayPatrick Watson
with Dana Gavanski
at Fine Line
first-avenue.com
In support of his 7th studio album Better in the Shade, Patrick Watson will be stopping by the Fine Line Music Cafe in Minneapolis on December 1, 2022.
The Canadian singer-songwriter, composer has over certified Gold in Canada. You may have heard his songs on Grey’s Anatomy and The Walking Dead among others.
We saw Watson in June 2012 and said, “Seeing Patrick Watson, it was like seeing some old friends as they play their music around a campfire. I’m convinced that they had their own people working the lights, because often the music was in synced with the lights (which were minimally used throughout their set). They also brought their own light rig, which brought a bit of a drama when used correctly.”
Dana Gavanski to open.

with Silent Planet, Avoid, and Cane Hill
at Amsterdam Bar & Hall

Leo Presents… The Plot in You with special guests Silent Planet, Avoid, and Cane Hill, at the Amsterdam Bar & Hall on December 3rd.
We last saw the Ohio quartet (Landon Tewers [vocals], Josh Childress [guitar], Ethan Yoder [bass], and Michael Cooper [drums]) in July 2016 and wrote, “Last night was their second chance and they killed it. They came out and owned that stage. Even though the crowd had been active for hours at this point, they didn’t slow down. The crowd got even more intense as The Plot In You hammered through their brutal set. The music, although brutal, was beyond clean and exactly what I needed it to be in order for this band to get back into my good graces. The band members seemed more than appreciate of the crowd and the fact that, even though they were the last band to play on a six band line-up, people were still having fun and moving around.”
