“Riverside Concerts Presents” Low on Fri, Oct 4 at 7:30p at the Mayo Civic Center Presentation Hall in Rochester, MN.
PRICES: $29 (Members) • $32 (Public)
Sponsored by Shop Rochester, The Current, and KXLT Fox 47. Tickets at 507.328.2200 or online at ticketmaster.com.
Built on the harmonic sensibilities of Alan Sparhawk (guitar and vocals) and Mimi Parker (percussion and vocals), Low has quietly produced one of the more challenging catalogues in indie music. Since forming in 1993, the Duluth, Minnesota–based band has refined its subtle and hypnotic sound over the course of 13 albums, launching a subgenre (“slowcore”) and becoming a dynamic force onstage.
With Double Negative (2018), Low has crafted its most radical-sounding release to date. The record’s production wraps the band’s aching, bare-bones melodies in distortion, dissonance, and static, pushing the boundaries of its established sound. The bold approach paid off, with the record appearing on best-of-2018 lists by NPR, Pitchfork, Stereogum, and Wire, among others.
Don’t miss this band that, 25 years into its career, has made its masterpiece—a claustrophobic, engrossing, and uncomfortably beautiful album that’s perfectly suited for our times.
Memberships and Ticket Packages can be purchased through Riverside Concerts only. Order by phone at 507-328-2200 or 800-657-3980 or in person at 201 4th St. SE, Suite 170 (City Hall). Tickets available at Riverside Concerts in City Hall (walk-in or by phone, no handling fees), the Mayo Civic Center Box Office (walk-in, no handling fees), and Ticketmaster (online).
