About this show

Alt rock royalty Kristen Hersh and her band Throwing Muses come to Minneapolis in support of their acclaimed new album, Moonlight Concessions!

With nearly 40 years of Muses-history behind her, Kristin Hersh continues to be one of the most compelling voices in American rock — a fiercely original songwriter and a magnetic live performer.

Transmission’s DJ Jake Rudh kicks off the night with a signature set.

Following 2020’s Sun Racket, a heady set filled with tough and tender tales spiked with surreal imager, Moonlight Concessions goes back to basics, a return for Throwing Muses to their esoteric off-kilter best courtesy of Kristin Hersh’s pin-sharp sketches and their suitably abrasive musical arrangements, a collection of snippets from everyday life writ large — think Raymond Carver Short Cuts, overheard conversations, recounted happenings, and telling one-liners, all sewed together to illustrate the times as they slowly mature, fully peppered with original Muses’ vim and vigour. Following a string of packed shows across Europe in Spring and Summer 2025, These shows are Throwing Muses'  first U.S. appearances in over a decade. .
