Stereolab have long held the ability to paradoxically both defy and define musical genres. Since forming in 1990, Stereolab have consistently demonstrated a penchant of artfully blending a variety of musical expressions to create something wholly different. It’s that quality that has made Stereolab one of the most influential bands to emerge from the nascent decade of alternative music — and it’s their innovative nature that keeps them at the forefront of musical invention and experimentation.

Stereolab’s most recent album is 2025’s Instant Holograms on Metal Film. Five months after that album’s release, Stereolab found themselves at the storied Minneapolis music venue First Avenue, where they performed to a sold-out room filled with enthusiastic fans.

Stereolab treated the energetic crowd to a rich array of songs from the new album, as well as several selections from their back catalogue, including one from their second EP, Super-Electric, released in 1991.

Watch and listen to the full concert above.
