New names are rocking the Current Chart Show this week with debuts from poet Kara Jackson, Chicago’s Brigitte Calls Me Baby, hard rocking King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard, and Killer Mike’s solo song “Don’t Let The Devil” cracks the top five.
Entering the Chart Show Hall of Fame this week is the dueling guitars of Rodrigo y Gabriela and two Minnesota acts: Gully Boys and Ber. Another local band, Kiss The Tiger, jumped to No. 2 and back in the No. 1 spot is Josh Ritter with “For Your Soul.”
Vote for your favorite new songs of this week and be entered for a chance to win a pair of tickets to see The Current's Music On-A-Stick featuring The Hold Steady with special guests Bob Mould Band and Dillinger Four at the Minnesota State Fair Grandstand on Saturday, Sept. 2.
Then be sure to listen to the Chart Show each Thursday at noon!
