SUMMARY:Mpls: Friko at Fine Line (Oct 15\, 2026)
DESCRIPTION:Friko at Fine Line (Oct 15\, 2026)\n \n\nOctober 15\, 2026 Thursday\n Friko\nat Fine Line\nfirst-avenue.com\n\nChicago based band Friko returns to Minnesota\, playing the Fine Line (and upgraded venue from 7th Street Entry)\, on October 15\, 2026.\n\n\n$1 from every ticket sold will go to Santa for a Day\, a certified 501 (c) (3) Public Charity who answers letters to Santa from kids in underserved communities. This two-pronged literacy component is vital to their mission: Volunteers helping\, teaching youngsters the power of the pen… and then donors rewarding their efforts\, by translating their wishes into reality\, This process helps children feel seen\, heard\, and valued—often for the first time—while fostering family dignity and empowerment that extends well beyond the holidays as participants author a different\, more positive narrative about life\, one sparked by optimism and the vision of a brighter future. Founded in 2018\, SFAD has fulfilled more than 50\,000 letters and delivered nearly 100\,000 gifts to children across eight U.S. cities.\n\n \n\n          Friko at Fine Line (May 22\, 2025)       \n\n\nWe saw Friko in May 2025 and wrote\, “After an intermission that played great music like “Get Innocuous!” by LCD Soundsystem and “Barley” from Water From Your Eyes\, Friko took the stage to The Talking Heads “Once in a Lifetime.” From there was a spine-tingling beginning in which lead singer\, Niko Kapetan\, tried to fit the whole evening into “Guess”. From there\, the band dialed it up even more to where it looked like they were almost assaulting their instruments during “Chemical”. We last saw Friko opening up for Royel Otis at First Ave in Sep\, 2024. We mentioned that they are known for their high-energy live shows\, and I was getting a front row view\, but there were moments when they took a step back and played the sweetest of songs like “For Ella” and “Cardinal”. In a Paste profile on their debut album Where We’ve Been\, Where We Go from Here\, the band noted not only being inspired by the Chicago indie rock scene\, but also influenced by the classical romantic era\, specifically the music of Frederic Chopin. As drummer Bailey Minzenberger stated: “With Chopin’s Nocturnes specifically\, I can’t wrap my head around how something can be so beautiful. There are some bits of it that are so complicated but still really accessible.””\nTour Dates\n\n   Sep. 16 – Salt Lake City\, UT @ Kilby CourtSep. 18 – Phoenix\, AZ @ Valley BarSep. 19 – San Diego\, CA @ CasbahSep. 20 – Los Angeles\, CA @ Sid The Cat AuditoriumSep. 21 – San Francisco\, CA @ Rickshaw StopSep. 24 – Portland\, OR @ Polaris HallSep. 25 – Seattle\, WA @ Baba YagaSep. 26 – Vancouver\, BC @ Fox CabaretSep. 30 – Morrison\, CA @ Red RocksOct. 15 – Minneapolis\, MN @ Fine Line (venue upgrade)Oct. 16 – Milwaukee\, WI @ VivariumOct. 17 – Detroit\, MI @ The Loving TouchOct. 19 – Toronto\, ON @ The Great HallOct. 20 – Montreal\, QC @ Bar Le RitzOct. 22 – Boston\, MA @ The SinclairOct. 23 – New York\, NY @ Music Hall Of WilliamsburgOct. 24 – Philadelphia\, PA @ The FoundryOct. 26 – Washington\, DC @ AtlantisOct. 27 – Durham\, NC @ Motorco Music HallOct. 28 – Atlanta\, GA @ Terminal WestOct. 30 – Nashville\, TN @ The Blue RoomOct. 31 – Columbus\, OH @ A&R Music Bar Nov. 20 – Mexico City\, MX @ Corona Capital FestivalDec. 19 – Chicago\, IL @ Salt Shed (w/ Ratboys)\n\n \nSocial Share\n				Share on Add Us (Opens in new window)\n				Add Us\n			\n				Share on Instagram (Opens in new window)\n				Instagram\n			\n				Share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			\n				Share on Bluesky (Opens in new window)\n				Bluesky\n			\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			More\n				Print (Opens in new window)\n				Print\n			\n				Share on Reddit (Opens in new window)\n				Reddit\n			\n				Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n				Email\n			\n				Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n				Pinterest\n			\n				Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n				Tumblr\n			\n				Share on Threads (Opens in new window)\n				Threads\n			\n				Share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)\n				WhatsApp\n			\n				Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n				LinkedIn\n			\n				Share on Mastodon (Opens in new window)\n				Mastodon\n			\n				Share on Telegram (Opens in new window)\n				Telegram\n			\n				Share on Nextdoor (Opens in new window)\n				Nextdoor\n			Like this:Like Loading…
