Silversun Pickups play brilliantly at State Theatre

The Los Angeles based rock band Silversun Pickups put on a brilliant performance at the State Theatre in Minneapolis, MN on Thursday, September 20. Aussie band Atlas Genius got things started, then School of Seven Bells took the stage and rocked through a powerful forty-five minute set of electro-rock that set the tone for the headliner. I went in not knowing a lot about Silversun Pickups, and left the show completely impressed. During an extended break between songs towards the end of the set, singer / guitarist Brian Aubert talked about his love of everything Minneapolis including Pizza Luce and First Avenue where he and the band attended the Built to Spill concert the night before. This show was one of the best I’ve seen this year. This band is a powerhouse.
