Jake Scott
with MaRynn Taylor
at Fine Line
first-avenue.com

We actually wrote a preview for platinum pop singer-songwriter Jake Scott on his 2024 tour for Lavender (he was stopping by First Avenue in March 2024), but the entire 2024 tour was cancelled due to family. This 2025 tour is making up for last year’s cancellation. Scott will be headlining the Fine Line, in Minneapolis, on August 6, 2025.

We saw Jake Scott in May 2022 and said, “Arkansas native Jake Scott would be up next, already an online sensation from recording a song a month and posting online for almost three years, and fresh from a successful club headlining tour. His thirty-five minute set began unexpectedly with a short drum solo, with Scott then bursting on stage to sing songs in support of his 2021 eight-song EP, Goldenboy. Scott unabashedly admits that most of his songs are inspired by his girlfriend/now-wife, Rachel, who serves as his constant muse and who he cultivated his relationship with, despite her being from Texas. Apparently, there is a serious AR/TX rivalry we in the Midwest don’t know enough about, but all turned into a story book happy ending, and his recent single, “Texas Girl” chronicles part of that.”

MaRynn Taylor to open.

BRONCHO
at 7th St Entry
first-avenue.com

Oklahoma-based band BRONCHO is back on tour in support of Natural Pleasure, their first new album in six years. The tour will stop in at the 7th Street Entry, in Minneapolis, on August 7, 2025.

Broncho at First Ave ( Aug 31, 2016)

We caught Broncho in Aug 2016 and wrote, “With a generous (nearly) one hour opening set (clocking in at 50 mins), Broncho took the stage with singer/guitarist Ryan Lindsey chanting, “We’re Broncho, we’re Broncho, we’re Broncho.” As soon as they started playing ‘Fantasy Boys’, taken from their latest Double Vanity album on Dine Alone Records, you can tell that Broncho seemed more focused in their sound. It sounded almost polished, compared to their previous albums and live appearance – which we previously called them as “punk”. Having seen them now, I wouldn’t really call them simply punk… they sound more melodic, with epic shoegazing jams.”
