While in the Twin Cities for a show in Minneapolis, Taylor Goldsmith of Dawes stopped at The Current to host an hour of tunes with Sean McPherson.

The National painted the summer sky with songs from their latest album, 'I Am Easy To Find.'

Courtney Barnett began her set with "Avant Gardener," a song that introduced many listeners to the Australian artist's breezy yet searing rock.

The Rock the Garden lawn was packed with a sea of fans waiting to hear the legendary Los Angeles punk band.

The Minneapolis indie rock sweethearts played songs from throughout their discography while the sun began to set at Rock the Garden.

Sean Tillmann and Sabrina Ellis stepped onstage in coordinated primary-colored outfits, their color scheme almost as loud and playful as their synth-laden pop. Heart Bones played songs from their forthcoming debut album, which nods sonically and lyrically to the pulsing pop sounds of the '80s.

Nashville-based Adia Victoria created dense and moody soundscapes with a six-piece band. The singer-songwriter, who is also a poet, name-dropped some of her literary heroes, including Sylvia Plath and Virginia Woolf... all while crowd-surfing in a perfect plank position.

The Beths tore through songs from their debut full length 'Future Me Hates Me.' The New Zealand indie rock band filled the garden with buzzing guitars and three-part vocal harmonies.

DeM atlaS kicked off the Rock the Garden main stage. Watch his energetic performance.

Chris. Billy. Names you can regularly hear whispered around the halls of The Current as it's hard to resist a good name check every once in a while. For today's 9:30 Coffee Break, what songs do you want to hear that name-check the artist of that song? It's ok if someone else is saying it, as long as the artist or band is mentioned in the song.
