Jamey Johnson tickets

Country crooner Jamey Johnson has just announced a show at the Fine Line this winter.
While not very commercially successful, Jamey Johnson has gained a fan base via his live shows and work with Trace Adkins, George Strait and Joe Nichols. In addition to touring with those acts, he has also co-wrote material with them as well.

Fine Line tickets are on sale now for the Friday, December 3rd show. Keith Anderson and Chris Jessen open the show.

Jamey Johnson is currently touring in support of his September release "The Guitar Song" released on Mercury Nashville records.

The Heavy tickets

Just off of their super super sold out show at the Fine Line Music Cafe, the Heavy announce a return to Minneapolis at none other than the Fine Line! I am a little puzzled as to why they are going back there - their show last week had been sold out for quite awhile and First Avenue can fit a few more people.

The Heavy return to Minneapolis on Friday, November 12th at the Fine Line Music Cafe. In case you are puzzled as to who the Heavy are you may recognize their song "How You Like Me Know" from several commercials, including the Kia commercial that aired during the Superbowl. It was also the theme song of this years Stanley Cup finals. So their jam has gotten around ... not bad for a small band from Noid, England.

Fine Line tickets for the November Heavy show will definitely sell out. Their last show left a very high demand for Fine Line tickets. I recommend buying early!

Jason Reeves on October 7th

On Thursday, October 7th, Jason Reeves will be performing live at the Fine Line Music Cafe. The 26 year-old from Iowa City, Iowa is an up and coming singer and songwriter who dropped out of college and moved to California to pursue his music career. He taught himself how to play the guitar and his influences include Bob Dylan, Pink Floyd, Radiohead, and James Taylor. He helped write songs for Colbie Caillat's debut album titled Coco, which reached #5 on the US Billboard 200. Purchase your Jason Reeves tickets today to see him live at the Fine Line Music Cafe!

Dandy Warhols tickets

Finally! The time has come! A Fine Line live show announcement that is worth blogging about. One of my all time favorite bands, The Dandy Warhols, are going to be stopping here on their fall tour. After finally ending their stint with Capital Records (they started their own label, Beat the World Records) the Dandy Warhols have released a "Best Of" compilation of all their radio jams. I will be the first to say that it is missing some of the stellar songs from their catalog, but I am a super fan.

Fine Line tickets for the Dandy Warhols show on Thursday, October 28th are on sale now. I am not looking forward to having to dodge the poles and the crowd at the Fine Line, but I love these guys and I must go!

I was hoping that they would have Darker My Love open for them like last time, however, it looks like Big Giant is touring with them. The Dandys usually pick awesome opening acts so I will for sure get to this show early to catch their show.

Oh My Dandy, we go way back.

Charlie Mars on August 26th

On August 26th, singer and songwriter Charlie Mars will perform at the Fine Line Music Cafe. He is promoting his new ablum, "Like a Bird, Like a Plane." He recorded his album in Austin, Texas with drummer J.J. Johnson who works with John Mayer, keyboardist John Ginty who works with Citizen Cope, and bass players George Reiff and Dave Monzie. Charlie Mars has a smooth style, with moods and melodies that are brilliantly crafted. Purchase your Charlie Mars tickets today!

Fine Line tickets

This coming week is going to be a really busy week for any business in Minneapolis's warehouse district. There are Minnesota Twins games Monday through Sunday. The Twins have been out of town for awhile so it will be good to have them home! And businesses in the downtown area will be even happier to have them back, seeing as Target Field attracts 30,000+ fans to the area. The Fine Line is no exception to this rule, hopefully they are enjoying the plus of having the Twins stadium steps away from them. The Fine Line has quite a few shows this week:

6/28 - The Painted People/ Jim O'Neill & The Brain Clouds/ Brian Just Band/ Andrew Fred
6/29 - Camela Kraemer/ Alex Masters
6/30 - The Summer High School Hot Spot "Obsessed Wednesdays"
7/1 - The Heavy // 18+ Show - SOLD OUT SHOW
7/2 - Post Twins game PARTY w/ Free Fallin & Revelation! (that is a Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers cover band, FYI!!!)
7/3 - Rising Stars of Africa with Mercy Myra, Roy Kapale and Erica Lulakwa

Fine Line tickets are on sale now for all of the shows listed above. Most of them are local (minus The Heavy) so Fine Line tickets will be available at the door as well.

It looks like the Fine Line Music Cafe is having a bit of a drought on their concert calendar. Where are all of their shows going? Perhaps the Cedar? The Varsity? First Avenue? Fine Line tickets are also available for a lot of local shows and event nights that they are hosting, however, as far as national acts there is not too much on the calendar. Fine Line - you need some shows!
