Mike Doughty performs #MicroShow at the James J. Hill House in St. Paul

In November of 2016, a select group of The Current's listeners were treated to a #MicroShow with Mike Doughty, who performed at St. Paul's James J. Hill House. Attendees of the concert were those who had won tickets to the show through The Current's on-air and online giveaways to the event.

Doughty shared 12 songs spanning his career with Soul Coughing and as a solo artist, including three songs from his most recent release, 2016's The Heart Watches While the Brain Burns. Listen to the performance via the links above and watch exclusive videos from the events below.

The Current's #MicroShow series gives fans exclusive opportunities to catch big-name artists perform in venues much more intimate than regular ticketed events.
