The Foxgloves are an all-women Americana/Newgrass band out of the Twin Cities. Here, they have been a vibrant part of the Midwest music scene since 2019. Their vibrant four-part harmonies share stories that feel weathered and deeply human, whether they are bright and driving, or shadowed and searching. Live, the energy shifts from song to song and never lets up, from lean-in moments to joyous, foot-stomping tunes.

This show brings together three distinct corners of Minneapolis’s restless rock psyche: Muun Bato’s shimmering pop-psych swirl of guitars and electronics, Manias’ fuzzed-out collision of garage rock, shoegaze, and power-pop punch led by veteran Jay Hurley, and Christian Erickson’s sharp-tongued, self-aware songs shaped by two decades of beautifully imperfect musical misadventures. Expect melodic hooks buried in haze, propulsive rhythms, and a night that leans into personality as much as sound—equal parts psychedelic glow, distorted charm, and hard-earned honesty.
