The 4onthefloor
From Minneapolis
First show since since October 12, 2012 • 49th show on MN Live's calendar since July 16, 2009
From last.fm:
The 4onthefloor’s new album, Spirit Of Minneapolis, evokes the spirit of American rebellion. That same pioneering spirit that brought us everything from modern aviation to rock & roll. Harnessing that spirit, the band is using it to break down modern music’s barriers down to our basic musical traditions. That ageless sound of rock & roll isn’t what it used to be, but the rumble of stomping feet emanating from Minneapolis is an omen of great things on the horizon.

John Mark Nelson
From Minneapolis
First show since since January 11, 2013 • Ninth show on MN Live's calendar since June 14, 2012
From last.fm:
When John Mark Nelson released his first CD, "Still Here", he was half way through his senior year in high school. "Still Here" was a collection of songs about a sixteen month period of his life. A time in which "everything seemed surreal and hazy". According to John Mark, he "became a very unpleasant person to be around, and yet (he) was the happiest (he) had ever been". It is an album about loss and regretful decisions. Read more about John Mark Nelson on Last.fm.
