Inside the Prince-Beloved Minneapolis Venue, First Avenue May's indie music venue profile goes inside the Prince-beloved First Avenue in Minneapolis, where the club remains a cornerstone of the music scene.

First Avenue is an institution that has brought people together and inspired generations of musicians. During the pandemic, I worked with its owner, Dayna Frank, to make sure venues got the support they needed to survive and continue thriving.

Very interesting timing considering they released the 2024 lineup so late. But also not a lot of surprises on this lineup, so that could be a factor
