Maisie Peters
with Grace Enger
at First Avenue
first-avenue.com

British pop star Maisie Peters has the #1 UK album for her sophomore album The Good Witch. She is the youngest British female solo act since 2014 to claim a #1, and the youngest artist to claim a #1 since Olivia Rodrigo’s Sour.

We caught Peters in Mar 2022 and said, “English singer/songwriter Maisie Peters sold out the 7th Street Entry, on the first night of her first US tour. In fact, she’s been selling out all of her shows, this is probably thanks to her 100 million streams of her single, “Worst Of You”. ”

Grace Enger to open. We Enger on her very first tour in Oct 2022 and wrote, “Enger opened the all-age show with a crowd huddled in close as she sang with guitar in hand, starting off with “Me and You” followed by “Bad Guy.” She then sang a cover of Wheatus’ “Teenage Dirtbag” before someone in the audience asked when she would be releasing her first E.P. That was still a secret. She was just happy to be on her first tour, but she did sing a possible song from the anticipated release, “Neighborhood.””

The Dandy Warhols
at Fine Line
first-avenue.com

The Dandy Warhols are kicking off their 2023 tour in Minneapolis! Expect them to play fan favorite “Minnesoter”, a song unique on their setlist for the area.

We last saw the Dandies in May 2019 and wrote, “Heads bobbed as 2003’s ‘We Used to Be Friends’ fired up, though not charting in the U.S., people recognized it from its licensing and being the theme to ‘Veronica Mars’, and longtime local fans appreciated the nod to our area in 1997’s ‘Minnesoter’.”
