Courtney McClean and the Dirty Curls
From Minneapolis
First show since since March 16, 2010 • First Amsterdam show • Third show on MN Live's calendar since March 4, 2010
From last.fm:
Begun in the summer of 2009, Courtney McClean & The Dirty Curls perform a style of music they call "naughtybilly": an eclectic mix of country, bluegrass, 70s power rock, cowboy, tin pan alley, and pretty much any other genre that feels right to them, all in service of some of the most outrageously off-color lyrics ever written. Their songs detail bi-curiosity, accidental incestuous desires, the importance of skillful dirty talk, and the endless double-entendres possible when you name a city "Moorhead." Read more on Last.fm

Greycoats
From Minneapolis
First show since since August 9, 2012 • First Amsterdam show since July 6, 2012 • 27th show on MN Live's calendar since July 19, 2008
From last.fm:
It's a rare thing to find smart, poetic lyricism in pop music. Greycoats' anglo-rock manages to spend both words and melody wisely. Their debut full-length album, "Setting Fire to the Great Unknown" (self-released, 2008) was marked by strong ambition, heartfelt romanticism and big ideas with a cinematic sweep exploring the mechanics of polarization. Their music found airtime on the hit teen drama Gossip Girl, leading to national exposure for the quartet from Minnesota and a tour of both U.S. coasts through the end of 2009.
