Brandi Carlile books two nights at the State Theatre for all-request concerts (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Grammy-winning singer/songwriter and Twin Cities favorite Brandi Carlile is returning to her roots with a tour of small venues in her biggest markets, including a two-night stand at Minneapolis’ State Theatre on Nov. 17 and 18. Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday through Ticketmaster and are expected to sell out quickly. Each show on the tour will be unique, as the setlists will be chosen live by in-the-moment fan requests. Carlile is performing as a trio with her longtime collaborators, twin b
Concert review: Teddy Swims goes full force at boisterous Grand Casino Arena show (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The man born Jaten Dimsdale drew a boisterous crowd of more than 9,000 to St. Paul’s Grand Casino Arena Saturday night. Of course, those folks know the guy by his stage name, Teddy Swims. Teddy was a childhood nickname that stuck (which I get, because, uh, Jaten) while Swims is an acronym for “Someone Who Isn’t Me Sometimes.” The latter kept returning to my mind during Swims’ completely over-the-top, two-hour performance. The 34-year-old began his career singing covers, with his breakthrough tak

Read excerpt
KARE 11 is moving Jana Shortal’s “Breaking the News” to streaming only next month. “This work will continue,” Shortal said in a video posted to Instagram. “I am so proud of the show we were able to produce with the team who did it for one reason and that was you. We laughed and cried together and we covered some of the most consequential events in Minnesota history. It has been the honor of my career to do this show on this station with you and I hope you’ll come with us.” Shortal joined KARE as
Concert review: Kacey Musgraves was charming and cheeky at Target Center (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In 2018, country star Kacey Musgraves released her fourth album, the masterpiece “Golden Hour.” Inspired by her marriage to Ruston Kelly, the record dabbled in dance music and spacey pop and went on to win four Grammys, including album of the year. But the follow-up, 2021’s “Star-Crossed,” focused on her subsequent divorce and her next two records, “Deeper Well” and “Middle of Nowhere,” saw her ruminating on another failed relationship and life as a single woman. That’s a whole lot of sad songs
Concert review: Phoebe Bridgers creates her own world at sold out Grand Casino Arena show (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Singer/songwriter Phoebe Bridgers has spent the past 15 years cultivating her career, as both a solo act and in collaboration with Conor Oberst (as Better Oblivion Community Center) and Julien Baker and Lucy Dacus (as Boygenius). Still, it was somewhat of a surprise that a woman whose first local show was a decade ago at the defunct punk rock venue the Triple Rock was able to sell out St. Paul’s Grand Casino Arena Thursday night in front of a rapturous crowd of more than 14,000. What makes her s
