Ring in the new year with bathtub cig, the depression pop project led by Hilary James, at the 7th Street Entry, in Minneapolis, on January 3, 2026.

Kiernan (Laura Kiernan) and Nona Invie (formerly of Dark Dark Dark) to open. We’ve seen both openers before, with Kiernan recently in July 2025: “Normally a quartet, this performance was a solo show from vocalist and guitarist Laura Kiernan. That made for a stripped-down sound, but an effective one for the setting. With three different guitars, Kiernan started off acoustic for the first several numbers. Kiernan’s plaintive vocals created an intimate setting for the early evening crowd. Kiernan let us know that the first two songs were currently unreleased. A bit of banter had Kiernan talking about songwriters who have inspired her and led to a cover of an Adrianne Lenker song, anything. Getting into some of the music the band has released, I was struck at how well they lent themselves to a solo interpretation. She also had a great sense of humor, cutting off an early applause with a quick “there’s a bridge in this song”.”
