First Avenue
The club we know as First Avenue was born in 1970, but the history of live music in that distinctively curved black building on the corner of First Avenue and Seventh Street rightfully begins much earlier. It was on a February Friday in 1937 that the orchestral music of the Gopher Melody Men played, ribbons were cut, and the new Northland-Greyhound Bus Depot opened for business.Today, First Avenue & The 7th Street offers musical entertainment and provides a unique and innovative cultural environment. As the longest continual entertainment and music venue in the Twin Cities, First Avenue’s roots in the community are deep and far-reaching.
