STAR TRIBUNE CRITICS' PICKS

Sweet Honey In the Rock

Sweet Honey in the Rock: The soothing harmonies of Sweet Honey always provide healing. Since 1973, this all-women a cappella group has been melding Black musical traditions from the fields and church with original tunes often about social injustice or women’s issues. Founder Bernice Johnson Reagon died last year, but two original members, Louise Robinson and Carol Maillard, are still part of this great group whose voices need to be heard especially in this anti-DEI environment.

Mason Jennings

Mason Jennings: In a quarter-century career that has taken many surprising turns, the Twin Cities-based indie-folk strummer made perhaps his most unexpected album yet last year when he released “Holy Dive.” It’s a collection of heavy-metal classics from his youth played in the stripped-down, rhythmically punchy style he’s known for, including songs by the Crüe, Judas Priest, Danzig and Dio. The newest release could make a fun sidestep or two in this solo, career-expanding, storytellers-style three-show run he’s offering hometown fans.
