Noah Gundersen
with Casey Dubie
at Turf Club
first-avenue.com

Acclaimed Washington-based singer-songwriter Noah Gundersen will be headlining the Turf Club, in St Paul, in support of If This Is The End. This is the first new work since 2021’s A Pillar of Salt.

We saw Noah Gundersen in 21 September 2015 and wrote, “Noah was accompanied on stage by a band that seemed to be playing musical chairs with their instruments. The drummer and Noah were the only ones that really stayed in the same place with the same instrument. For one song his sister (who was featured on violin majority of the night) ended up on a keyboard. I would look down at my phone, then look up, and all of a sudden she had a guitar in hand. That just goes to show how truly talented these musicians are. And they would have to be super talented in order to keep up with Noah’s incredible voice. ”

Casey Dubie to open.

Bahamas
with Fortunate Ones
at First Avenue
first-avenue.com

Award-winning Canadian artist Bahamas, a.k.a. Afie Jurvanen, is on tour in support of his new album Bootcut (Brushfire Records).

We saw Bahamas a long time ago, in Sep 2012 and said, “I did manage to catch Bahamas. Bahamas is basically the stage name for Afie Jurvanen, who may be most famous for being Feist’s guitarist and piano player. I really liked them; they had this weird 50s sound to them, complete with two women backup singers. It wasn’t all serious (based on his fancy jacket and glamorous ladies), they sometime sing silly songs like “Hockey Teeth.””
