The Thing
at 7th St Entry
first-avenue.com

New York’s The Thing is back in Minneapolis! The band will headline the 7th Street Entry on December 3, 2024.

We saw The Thing in Apr 2024 and wrote, “We’ve previously mentioned that their music is quite under the radar, but eventually they’ll build up a good fanbase (seeing as they’ve sold out several major cities when they were the headliner). With a spot on Chvrches’ tour (probably thanks to their guitarist’s connection to Dave Stewart helping with Chvrches’ latest album), you can bet that when the band returns to MN (and let’s hope for another venue other than the Turf Club), that people will be up front and singing along to songs like “Loveless”, which ended their brief set.”

Blood Incantation will be headlining the Fine Line, in Minneapolis, on December 4, 2024… touring in support of the new album Absolute Elsewhere.

Midwife to open. We saw Midwife in Mar 2022 and wrote, “Midwife came highly recommended by a friend… so we decided to check her out. What I can tell you about Midwife, aka Madeline Johnston, is that her music is extremely slowcore. She’s creating this music landscape with her ghostly vocals (amplified by her custom telephone microphone). Her music seems like it could work for a movie soundtrack.”

at 7th St Entry

Rising Country star Kelli Belles (billed as Belles) is headlining the 7th Street Entry on December 4, 2024, on her Trust Issues Tour.

Excited for the tour, Belles shares, “The Trust Issues Tour marks my second headlining club tour, and after the success of the first, I couldn’t wait to hit the road again. We’re revisiting some amazing venues and adding a few new ones that I’m excited to play for the first time. Connecting with my fans through live music is something I cherish, and this tour is all about deepening that bond. If you come out to a show, get ready for a night filled with storytelling about crazy ex-boyfriends and moving on, mixed with drinking, dancing, and hopefully a few moments that really hit home.”
