Doug Collins and the Receptionists
Whether it’s something as menial as a pair of shoes, an oddly named Missouri town or a major life change like death and divorce, this smiley and warmly voiced Twin Cities Americana singer has a knack for writing songs that are easily relatable, lightly humorous and undeniably sweet. On his new album “Too Late at Night,” he also now has an ace band to lay down stylish twang behind the tunes, including two Gear Daddies members. – (Mpls) Star Tribune
Called “one of the most brilliant songwriters to emerge from the Twin Cities in nearly two decades” by southernminn.com, Doug Collins’s hooky mix of Beatle-esque pop and classic country are highlighted in his energetic shows (both solo and with his crack band, the Receptionists), soulful singing, and honest, emotional songs. His last two CD’s were voted “Best of the Year” by the Minneapolis Star Tribune and his most recent, Good Sad News, was voted #3 best American release in Spain by Ruta66 Magazine.
21+. Doors at 6pm. Opening set by Box 10 at 7pm.
