Vérité at 7th St (25 May 2016)

We saw VÉRITÉ in May 2016 and wrote, “When Vérité came on stage, playing ‘Echo’, she immediately felt love from her dancing section (aka her biggest fans) in the front. The fans previously saw her with Ms Mr last October 2015, and raved about her modern love songs. Vérité always made sure she appreciated people for showing up to her show, “I’m so happy to see you all here.””

Wisconsin’s Carlie Hanson is on a headlining tour, stopping by the 7th Street Entry in Minneapolis, in support of her sophomore album Wisconsin. Taylor Swift is a fan, and included Hanson’s demo “Only One” on her list of favorite songs of 2017. Recently, the young singer teamed up with boundary-pushing, multimedia artist Groupthink with their song “Miss Carolina.”

Carlie Hanson (17 Oct 2018)

For twenty minutes, we accidentally saw Carlie Hanson at the Troye Sivan show (she wasn’t on the bill!) in Oct 2018 and wrote, “First on the lineup was Carlie Hanson (who was a surprise as she’s not listed on the venue’s website). Hanson is joined by a live guitarist (sorry didn’t catch his name) and typically shirtless Tosh Peterson (Tosh the Drummer). Since her set time was so short (20 minutes), there was very little banter between songs. We did learn that she’s from St Croix, Wisconsin, and mentioned that some of her best friends drove all that way to see her in Minneapolis.”



Support from:
Halo Boy has a new album called Sim City.



Senses (stylized as senses) is described as a punk influenced pop-rock band – making addictive pop songs like “Sleepwalking”. The band originated in Los Angeles when singer Madison Taylor met guitarist Josh Bissell and drummer Nick Sampson on Craigslist.

Alternative/pop 18-year-old singer artist Jessie Murph (not to be confused with Jessie Murphy) will be heading out on her first ever North American tour in support of her debut mixtape. It is set to release February 10th and will also include songs “Always Been You,” “If I Died Last Night,” and “Pray” as well as three new tracks.

One of those new song is called “About You”. The track was recorded with Gabe Simon (Dua Lipa, Noah Kahan) and Yakob (6lack, Giveon), and drew inspiration from her personal experience with a toxic relationship.

Note: Murph’s show was upgraded to the Fine Line, from the 7th Street Entry.

Update: charlieonnafriday added as support.

For 24-year-old singer/songwriter Maddie Zahm is headlining the Amsterdam Bar & Hall in St Paul on March 12. The Boise-bred artist recently released her debut EP You Might Not Like Her, a project that intimately documents the massive upheaval she’s experienced over the last year: a life-changing journey that includes leaving the stifling church community where she long served as a worship leader, losing weight, moving to Los Angeles and coming out as queer.



Her single, “Fat Funny Friend” was a viral hit, amassing over 75+ million streams, and is about per personal trauma, her sexuality, and her relationship with her body.



corook, aka Corinne Savage, to open. The Pittsburgh-born singer/songwriter/producer has many talents, including the ability to solve a Rubix cube in under a minute.
