Kristian Matsson – the Tallest Man on Earth
We saw The Tallest Man on Earth in August 2015 and wrote, “Thankfully, The Tallest Man on Earth did not live up to his name— Just seventeen days prior, a 30 x 30’ piece of the 1930’s-era ceiling on the venerable First Avenue club fell down, injuring five and forcing them to close to tear out the remainder and safely refurbish the venue. The ceiling itself is now more exposed, with more pipes and beams showing, all painted black, with sounds carrying and bouncing around a touch more, though all still clear and well-mixed. Despite his slightly oddly named stage moniker, Swedish singer/songwriter Kristian Matsson stands only at 5’ 7” (coincidentally same height as Bob Dylan) and he and his band became the first touring act to reopen First Avenue since the ceiling collapse, playing a 90 min. headlining set to a near-capacity packed crowd.”

New Constellations at Amsterdam Bar & Hall (Oct 30, 2026)
Portland indie-pop duo New Constellations will be headlining the Amsterdam Bar & Hall, in St Paul, in support of their debut album It Comes In Waves (Nettwerk).
The ticket limit is strict. Any attempt to exceed the posted ticket limit per customer or household, or to game the system in any way, will result in cancellation of orders without notice. There is a transfer delay for all tickets prior to the show.
We saw New Constellation in May 2026 and wrote, “New Constellations opened the evening with their blend of 80’s synthwave and dream pop. They are a duo of childhood friends, Harlee Case on lead vocals and keys and Josh Smith on guitar. Their journey to the Palace can be a case of perseverance rewarded. Although childhood friends, they only formed their band in 2015 when Case put out a request on Instagram that she was looking for a musical collaborator. Smith answered and in 2021 their debut single “Hot Blooded” had reached over 50 million streams on Spotify. New Constellations are supporting their debut album, It Comes in Waves, playing songs from it like “Believe Again” “Dandelion” and of course, “Hot Blooded.” Case said that she and Smith were so grateful to be playing the music they love and let the crowd know that they were finally able to quit their day jobs, which brought a round of applause. ”

MARIS at 7th St Entry (Oct 31, 2026)
Los Angeles–based, Montana-born singer/songwriter MARIS is touring in support of the new EP MOSH★PIT. She’ll be headlining the 7th Street Entry, on Halloween, October 31, 2026. Should be an unforgettable night.
MARIS is proud to partner with LIFEBEAT, a program of The Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation, on her upcoming tour. $1 from every ticket sold will benefit the program, and LIFEBEAT will be offering resources on sexual health, harm reduction, and more at select stops.
The moon, Maris and Andrew Lucas
We saw Maris in Oct 2025 and noted, “As is my way, I gravitate to shows with female leads (from a voice POV, not necessarily a self-identifying POV), so when I saw this show on the calendar, I jumped at the chance. I didn’t know anything about either Caroline or Maris before the show. I listened to each of them a little bit on Spotify before but still went it pretty uninitiated. The stage is pretty simple with a big ol’ moon on as the only decoration (see pictures) and a few rugs, which ended up being tripping hazards. The moon was part of their alien theme, which they explained about three-quarters of the way through the show. The show started with a voice over riffing on the Star Wars A New Hope beginning, except that in this version a lesbian alien and a bisexual astronaut join together to celebrate with us. Caroline and Maris both come to the stage joined by Julian Lewis on the drums and Andrew Lucas on guitar. They know what the crowd wants to hear and launch into their hit duet “Give Me A Sign”, which I recognize so we’re off to a good start. Maris departed the stage and Caroline kept the energy going with a three-song set led by “Heaven’s Just A Flight”, which she wrote shortly after her brother passed away in 2019. ”
