First Avenue : 7:00 p.m. every Fri., Sat. from January 18 until January 19

While it might be trendy in some circles to bellyache over its recent propensity for spinning artists like Mumford & Sons and Adele that aren't exactly starved for airplay elsewhere, any criticisms of the Minnesota Public Radio's 89.3 The Current must first acknowledge its status as one of the...

Fuck Knights

Turf Club : 9:00 p.m. January 12

Brute Heart

Icehouse : 11:00 p.m. January 19

The sounds of Brute Heart might be better-suited for an opium den than a rock venue.

Cory Wong Quartet

Artists' Quarter : 7:00 p.m. every Tue.

Usually when someone's referred to as one of the best-kept secrets in town, it's an aspiring journeyman or a niche-genre artist that's flying under the radar.

Wants vs. Needs

The Record Room : 10:00 p.m. third Fri. of every month

Fusing fashion-driven, style-conscious tastemaking and deep, crowd-rocking musical knowledge isn't something to be taken lightly on either end of the equation.
