Must-see concerts this week: GloRilla, Gary Louris, Kraftwerk

Despite that anxious Minnesota spring feeling — is it shorts weather or is it going to snow? — the outdoor concert season isn't quite here. In lieu of planning that first spring cookout, here are the concerts that will keep you occupied until Prince's promise of snow in April is safely in the rearview mirror. Thursday, March 27 at The Armory GloRilla's 2024 GLORIOUS was, surprisingly, her debut full-length, despite having had released hit songs already. Adding to the surprise for casual fans, it was discussed in reviews as a "comeback" after a stretch of being absent from the charts. The record, as well as her 2024 mixtape Ehhthagng Ehhthang produced plenty more hits like 'Yeah Glo!' and 'TGIF.' The show in Minneapolis will be without the albums high-profile collabs with Megan Thee Stallion, Cardi B, and Sexyy Red, but it's still sure to be an energy-packed night at The Armory. Saturday, March 29 at The Dakota A gifted musical storyteller, Grant has a knack for dropping a laugh-inducing turn of phrase into melancholy songs. (See: 'GMF,' 'The Queen of Denmark,' or 'Where Dreams Go to Die.') His songwriting is biting, despite the often sweet melodies and gentle timbre. His latest release, The Art of the Lie, has a little more bombast than usual — he has likened the tone to Vangelis' Blade Runner soundtrack — but under it all is the songwriting and humanizing look at the often mundane aspects of life that mark some of his best work. Saturday, March 29 at The Parkway Theater The Jayhawks frontman will celebrate the release of his latest solo effort, Dark Country, this week. The album's moody ballads live up to the name. It's got quite a few pensive love songs — not surprising, since the record is dedicated to his wife — but there's a somber thread to songs like "Getting Older" and "Dead Porcupine" that make it an exciting and captivating listen. Sunday, March 30 at The Cedar Cultural Center There's a meditative quality to seeing the Tuvan throat singing trio Alash perform live. They've built an international reputation for infusing their traditional folk music with modern influences. That ability to incorporate western music has aided collaboration between groups like the Sun Ra Arkestra and Béla Fleck and the Flecktones. (Fleck will perform in Minneapolis a few times this week as well, heading to The Dakota as the Béla Fleck, Edmar Casteñada, Antonio Sanchez Trio.) Sunday, March 30 at Orpheum Theatre The seminal krautrock group celebrates the 50th anniversary of Autobahn and their first U.S. tour this spring, promising a multimedia experience with striking visuals that add some flair to their hallmark stage presence. Following a 20-year break from touring in the U.S., the group has come to town just four times, including, most recently, a 2022 show at the State Theatre. With this being a celebration of Autobahn, fans are likely in for something a little different than they've brought to town on Monday, Mar. 24: Béla Fleck, Edmar Casteñada, Antonio Sanchez Trio at The Dakota Hovvdy with Video Age at Turf Club An Evening with Joe Boyd at The Cedar Cultural Center Mxmtoon at Varsity Theater Skating Polly and Gully Boys at Pilllar Forum Time Room, Big Pinch, and Not Your Baby at Zhora Darling The Fabulous Thunderbirds featuring Kim Wilson at The Parkway Theater Kenny Reichert Quartet at Berlin The Dans at The White Squirrel Bar (free) Roe Family Singers at 331 Club (free) Concerts on Tuesday, Mar. 25: Béla Fleck, Edmar Casteñada, Antonio Sanchez Trio at The Dakota Anberlin - 20th anniversary of NFTP with Copeland and The Dangerous Summer at Varsity Theater Blue Tuesday: Omar Abdulkarim Quartet pays tribute to Roy Hargrove at Berlin Martha Wainwright with Brad Barr at Hook and Ladder Giovannie and the Hired Guns with Aaron McBee at Fine Line Allergen, Scam Likely, Kate Malanaphy, and Hey, ily!
