Hey, my name is Ace from Soulcage, an original hard rock band based out of Des Moines, IA. We are booking a few weekend runs in spring 2025 to increase our regional awareness.

Any recommendations for rock/metal venues in the area that accept newer up-and-coming bands? We would definitely be content with an opening slot on a bill of established locals or regional bands and are open to DIY if they have sound in place.

Hi everyone! I’m not from here nor even live in this area, but I am looking for any info on the band “The Clean Tramps”.

The only post I could find about them was on this subreddit so I was wondering if anyone has seen them locally or heard anything? I have been in love with their music since 2020ish and really miss them!

I appreciate any help provided, thank you so much!!

My band (tin whiskers) is looking for a bassist. Rock music. Dm me if interested!

Used to be (and still to some extent is) avant garde stuff at Icehouse. Got John Zorn randomly at the Walker last year. Get some odd stuff happening at the Cedar. Other places I should be paying attention to?

Hey there, I'm an out of towner who makes some pretty unique microphones using old steel beer cans from the '70s & before they switched to aluminum, and I'm in search of a music store in your area that may have interest in selling handmade mics like these.

The Twin Cities and surrounding MN areas had a ton of these steel cans (breweries like Schells, Hamm's, various events/holidays in your town like this weird 1980 Jest Fest full of clowns, and even a Vikings ginger ale). Those are just a few; there's a mind blowing amount of MN cans in my garage.

Anyways, any ideas appreciated! My search has turned up a bunch of Music Go Rounds and school rental/lesson type places, but I'm looking for the type of place that has the ever-evolving gear & pedals selection.

Hey I'm a Minneapolis producer/DJ wondering which clubs or bars have local EDM artists play and might be good places for me to look into. Thanks!

As the title says, I’m wondering if there’s any decent festivals around the area? Jam bands, funky/ reggae music is ideal, though I don’t hate the electronic scene

My band Soulcage is looking to expand our reach by playing midwestern metro areas this year, and we are looking for band(s) from the Minneapolis/Twin Cities area to do a show with.

PM for more details if you’re interested.
