Cloud Cult

Great group of musicians, first time seeing them and first time at the Sinclair. Great venue, sound was tight, spot on,crisp and clear. Will definitely look for other shows there.

The band played with energy . They were tight. The lights were great. Their songs are so inspirational. An unforgettable evening.

If you are interested in artistic, harmonic, multi-instrumental, progressive and emotionally genuine music, go see Cloud Cult. Words are inadequate to describe the experience, but if you go, I'm certain you'll be glad you did.

These guys put on an excellent show.. They get the audience into it and the live paintings were very cool! Love this band and was happy to see that their live show impressed and made me like the band even more!

It's a large and multi-talented group, with unusual instrumentation (Bass played doubles as trombone, keyboard player also played french horn and trumpet and percussion, also great violin and cello players). They take all of this complicated sound and pull together something very exciting and cohesive, and are both fun and hyponotic at the same time. I highly recommend their new record "Light Chasers" although seeing the songs live did a lot to make me love listening to the record even more. Highly recommended!

Do everything in your power to see this band as often as possible, it fills the soul with love

For those who have not seen them before, you're in for a remarkable show. The music is outstanding -- a short list of the instruments include the standard bass/guitar/drums, but also includes a cellist, a violinist, keyboards, a trombone, french horn, trumpet... and two amazing mural artists on either side of the stage that create a painting during the show. It's very interesting to watch how the music and the crowd influences the painters, and the crossover of visual art with music is something you won't experience with any other band.

This show rocked my world! So much energy and stage presence. I've seen a lot of live music and this show was one of the best I've seen. Ever. I love their recorded stuff, and live I loved it even more. I could have watched them all night, I didn't want the show to stop. Amazing.

The Cloud Cult show in Denver blew my mind. The Bluebird is an intimate setting but it was packed. They played a few tunes from their new album, Light Chasers...totally amazing. The energy in the room was so incredible because the band puts everything they've got into their performance. The musicians are conservatory quality but they have this incredible creativity that marries many different styles. Also, they are tapping into some deep stuff with their lyrics and it all comes together for one of the best live performances I've been to in years. Get the new album and go see this show. I flew from Memphis to Denver to see it and it was sooooooooooooooooo worth it!!!

Cloud Cult!!! What can I say? They put on an amazing show. The band is always so full of life and energy, and there is nothing like their music. One of my favorite bands, and one of the best concerts I've been to.

Cloud Cult is such an amazing band in general, and their live show does not disappoint. There was so much energy and emotion on the stage and throughout the crowd. It was a beautiful show that left me in tears.

I'll admit that I was a little worried that Cloud Cult might be one of those bands whose albums are fun to listen to, but sucked live. I couldn't be more wrong! They are talented as well as theatrical. The paintings happening during the show were awesome.

Every concert I see of them becomes my new favorite concert ever. Amazing energy. Amzing vocals. Amazing instrumentation. Amazing message. They sing with joy.

This band, combined with this venue, was amazing. They performed two sets, and acoustic set and an electric set. Despite my misgivings about an acoustic set, it was even more amazing than the electric set. The place, combined with the beautiful usage of the instruments combined to form a harmonious almost tear jerking performance. Everything combined brilliantly.

Amazing. The show was amazing. The venue was great. Parking was the only issue. It was kind of a pain. We left extra time to find parking so we were fine. Can't wait to go see Cloud Cult again.

Terrific show. Loved the acoustic set. They all played their hearts out and their energy is infectious. Loved it, love the venue, too.

fantastic show, highly recommend to everyone, it is good for your SOUL!

Seeing Cloud Cult live is not just a concert; it's a spiritual experience. Their whole show included instrumental and lyrical art; visual art, including a light show and a cosmic background scene; ennthusiastic dancing from the band, and as always, fantastic vocals. Cloud Cult is never just a concert, but more of an all-encompassing art experience for the soul. From the drop of the first note in their acoustic set to the break inbetween sets, silent tears were continually streaming down my face. The experience was so beautiful, so real, so human - my heart needed this healing experience.

I have seen Cloud Cult many times, and again they continue to amaze! Two Full Sets. Day: a beautiful acoustic set. Night: a rip roaring electric set. Thank you Cloud Cult and audience for a concert never to be forgotten!!!

I've been to many Cloud Cult shows and will keep going because each show is unique and brilliantly executed. I loved that they had two separate sets: one acoustic and one electric. The acoustic arrangements were absolutely beautiful, especially "The Ghost Inside Our House." I brought my parents to this show. They hadn't heard Cloud Cult before and still loved the show. I definitely recommend it for any age or genre preference.

I have seen Cloud Cult many times. For years, I had hoped they put together an "acoustic" experience, since their talents and musicianship would meld so well with Craigs songwriting and create a whole new "sound". I was amazed when they did put together the acoustic tour and EXCITED when they recorded the mpls shows for an album! It is everything I imagined it could be. I was lucky enough to see a small intimate show in Rochester, MN ....and immediately wanted more. I vowed to get to their ST Paul shows at the Fitzgerald, since i knew it was a fantastic venue! I was lucky enough to get tix to the sunday show. I paused briefly on purchasing saturday show to find out how many tickets and if friends wanted to go.....waiting on reply, the show sold out, in minutes. Sunday it was! I decided to just get my tix and let others worry about their own. I decided to bring my 18 yr old to her first CC experience. She loved it, we got close seats and were in the front row for the "electric" 2nd set. Absolutely amazing...and i know she will be talking about it for a long time! As i told her....I could watch that show EVERY DAY! Absolutely amazing show!

The first set was all accoustic and it blew my mind. I breathed in the music and felt every note played inside my body. The second set was electric and pumped me up but lacked a certain level of emotion that the accoustic set nailed. I would give this show a 5 out of 5 stars if it was just the accoustic set, but even though the electric set was good, it was not good enough to be a 5 start set. This is why I gave this event 4 out of 5 stars.

Awesome as usual!! The music was crisp and clear. We loved it all.

I have seen Cloud Cult once a year for the past 6 years, and this show is by far the best. The acoustic set was so moving; fresh takes on some of their classics. They had the amazing ability to make the audience pay close attention to the small sounds, and then blow the place up with the loud ones. I cried 4 times, no shame. The electric set was a bit more "jammy" then I have come to expect from them, and just knocked everyone on their ass. I cannot recommend this band enough. As close to a religious experience as I ever expect to experience.

Great show, nice crowd, good venue. First set was acoustic, beautiful, then the second set was electric and they rocked the house. This band is the greatest, they have painters on each side of the stage, doing live art during the show, they come forward and sign in a couple of the songs, really a warm, friendly band. I will go see them again, and of course I love, love, love the Fitzgerald Theatre. We had general admission tickets, and we did not get there early so we were in the 2nd balcony, but still good seats.

There are not enough stars to rate this concert! Phenomenal, plain and simple.

Amazing show, it was one of the best that I have been to.

Cloud Cult is the best live performing bands I've ever seen. This was my seventh time seeing them. My only complaint is that the Fitz, or maybe their sound guy, made the bass entirely too loud. We were sitting far from being in front of the bass amp and it was a little bit ridiculous. For me it was a little hard to enjoy the second half electric, which is usually my favorite part.

Sold out concert in New York at the Bowrey Ballroom in New York City. Amazing show...engaging every sense. Cosmic and earthly at the same time

Cloud Cult was absolutely incredible. The venue itself was ok (good luck finding parking) but the performance was unlike anything. I'm a long time CC fan and this was my second time seeing them. The first was jaw dropping but I expected the awe to wear off for the second round. They are almost overwhelming in the intimacy, the emotion....it's like they're singing to YOU. At least I felt that way, and it sounded like everyone else in the audience felt the same. Do a favor for your psyche and soul: see this band!

Astounding and Incredible. They were emotionally moving and put on an extraordinarily passionate performance. A must see for sure!

The band is amazing. Great blend of instrumentation. The passion and feeling is oozing out of this band. They fit my ear perfectly.

Amazing but super amazing and stuff. My text is too short but it was super cool and amazing.

This band keeps improving. This is sixth time I've seen them and this topped all previous shows. During several songs I thought, "This would be perfect for a Grammy show performance." If Arcade Fire can take the Album of the Year award, then there is hope for Cloud Cult to break through to a wider audience. Comparable songwriting, playing, and stage energy. Some revved up fans boosted the energy level at this show.

AMAZING! The Current really knows how to put on a show!

The Current always puts forth the best and this show was no exception. The only problem we had was the long delays between the acts.

Great line-up, great bands, and some fun videos during set up. Not to mention a free CD! Definitely worth it, I plan on going next year, too!

It was okay. I didn't get the 'wear your flannel' memo. Also, didn't realize it was an 18+ show. I'm a huge fan, but was slightly more disappointed then impressed. Sad. I still love them, still love that they are organic gardners.

I thought Cloud Cult ruled while they played quite a few songs from the Meaning of 8, so that made me smile quite a bit. Anyway they kept up the typical performance of really getting down and I thought they were simply amazing!!!

This is my son's favorite group and I was amazed by their performance. Each song was brilliant and the sound was perfect - not so loud that you were deaf the rest of the week but still vibrant and full of energy. (Yes I am showing my age :). This was an experience you don't want to miss if you have a chance to see them. Their songs are inspirational and poetically define and remind us of what makes us human.

As usual Cloud Cult put on an amazing show. Between the charisma and chemistry that they have with one another and the energy that they illicit from the crowd, seeing cloud cult is a must for any fan.

One of the best concerts I've been to in a long time. Cloud Cult has a lot of energy and really enjoys playing and never forgets that the audience is there. The light show was gorgeous as well.

Cloud Cult are an amazing act. they pull off their live show of the new material as if they have been playing it live for years. But, with the energy of it being new material. The older songs were played with just as much vitality and energy as the new. This is the kind of band that should be seen everytime they are playing in town. I, and I'm sure many others, feel extremely fortunate to still be able to see them while they are still playing in clubs like First Ave. Seriously one show on my "all time" list.

Cloud cult never disappoints. I only wish I could go to "church" with them more often.

Cloud Cult @ First Ave. was insanely fantastic! I had the time of my life and found "my people." Thanks so much for the rad show!

Not only was the music great, but their overall stage presence is amazing!!!!

This show was incredible. The energy was so wonderful and the experience was spiritual it took me to another plane of consciousness. I thoroughly recommend everyone see a cloud cult show at some point in their lives beautiful art and amazing music!

Cloud Cult always comes off as a loving, inspired, creative family that welcomes it's fans in with open arms. Craig's musical genius is apparent by his hard work on stage, the emotion in his lyrics, and his overall presence. The show is always put on with as much love as if given to a full house. Unfortunately, I feel Cloud Cult must be lacking in the marketing department, because it always baffles me why they are not huge by now. I hope for everyone, and Craig's new baby Nova's sake, they get all the recognition they deserve.

The first 1/2 of the show was a screening of a film (theSeekerFilm) that the band wrote and released in 2016. There is no dialog, only the music and lyrics of the band. It is heart-wrenchingly fantastic. The film is a journey of one woman, from her birth on, through joy, heartbreak and growth. It is stunningly beautiful (and only 60 min). The second half of the show was exactly what I've come to expect from a CC show: Brilliant artists (musicians, painters and storytellers). Plenty of deep cuts and some never before played live numbers that were energetic and poignant. See them if you have the chance.

The beginning of the show was very heavy. The movie was super emotional but amazing and the live soundtrack made it that much more impacting. The intermission was not too long, a good amount of time to unwind from the movie and stretch the legs a little. The following set was much happier, much more uplifting and the band showed that they actually enjoy playing in Seattle very much. They're not just a group of musicians on stage, they actually act like family up there while they sing.

Truly unique and awe inspiring group in a wonderful venue

We did not know what to expect with regards to " The Seeker" but adding the visual element that the film is to the score they played elicited very powerful emotions.

The show was great!!! Good sound, good lighting, awesome performance!!

Cloud Cult was at the top of their game throughout this show, with a perfect blend of new and old and an emphasis on the more energetic tunes. This band should be playing bigger venues, but it is nice to hear them in smaller spaces like the Sinclair.

Second time seeing them. The first time it was 2 years ago when they were doing the acoustic set. No acoustic this time but still amazing. They can convey such emotion without having to slow down their songs. The whole set was amazing. It's obviously not "hard rock" as another review said. For people that don't know this band: Still go see them. They are such good artists. The Sinclair is always a good venue. Some of the band members were hanging around after, which is always kind of cool. Can't wait to see them again!

Cloud Cult is my favorite band of all time. They had an incredible setlist and are amazing entertainers with their 8 band members and two artists. Please bring them back to Boston as often as possible!

Cloud Cult heals with their music. Their music frees the soul from the cage of oppression. Craig's songwriting is some of the best that exists and gets better with every new piece. The performance was tight, EXTREMELY melodically accurate, and mixed flawlessly. The venue provided amazing sound quality. I could actually hear myself when I sang along. Not because it was quiet, the band was plenty loud... perfect volume in fact... but because the sound floor was stunningly silent, I could hear myself as I sang along with song after song--which I did without inhibition, because Cloud Cult and my fellow Cloud Cult fans are both so respectful to every being's right to express themselves from the heart.

Venue was really nice with plenty of space and even couches and a little social area downstairs from the concert area. The band's were amazing and this night could not have been any better!!!

Cloud Cult is an amazing band with a ton of energy! They are mesmerizing to watch and I loved every moment of their show.

I LOVE how Cloud Cult brings swells of emotion to their music, and how they are able transition you into other emotions or energies of joy, brokenness, and resilience... Each member of the band is an incredible visual, musical, and human artist. And their sound tech crew blends a killer balance for instrumental highlights and lyrical leading. LOVE the band, Love the painting, Love the sound, Love the philosophy. Thank you Cloud Cult for being my soundtrack.

The show Cloud Cult put on at the Historic State Theater was a wonderful surprise! Although the vocals got a bit swept away by the guitar and violin a couple of times, overall everything was pretty tight. It was the first time I saw them personally, and I was quite impressed by the amount and quality of rock and roll they pounded out.

This performance was their best I've seen so far. They played some from their new album, and some favorites from earlier works, too. The sound was balanced for the great acoustics of the State Theater. And the light show was epic ! So much energy ! I will see them whenever they are near the Cities. Looking forward to seeing the new movie, too

My favorite live performance of their song "Car Crash" to date. This is my 23rd time seeing Cloud Cult perform. Great connection for a seated event. So much energy & amazing that Craig & the band played a double set to make up for price gouging on ticketmaster.

The show was absolutely fabulous! I'm a newbie when it comes to Cloud Cult, so I didn't know any of the songs, but it didn't matter. I loved the whole show (as did the two teenagers who were with me)! I'll definitely see them again!

this band came highly recommended by my son. The first I heard of them was at my sons wedding. this concert was not what I had expected. they played mostly new songs to promote their new album. the guitar was wire and very loud. I was prepared to hear ballads and moderate rock not hard rock. I will not be seeing them again.

If you've never been to one of their concerts you really should go. A lot of energy and the whole band is really part of the show.

Gained in momentum, enthusiasm, and warmth as concert proceeded. Early in concert the bass (guitar sustain was too much) swamped the upper register and the harmonies and instrumentation - improved as concert went by. There really is nothing to compare with a CloudCult concert. They function and project at a high level throughout and really stay fresh and attuned to each other and the audience. Awesome new songs and just enough old familiars for longer term fans.

The Cloud Cult acoustic set was fantastic and their music, filled with messages of spirituality, went great with the venue.

I have been to several Cloud Cult shows, but this one tops the list of of best shows of all time. Cloud Cult opened for themselves with an acoustic set and then took a break and came back and did an entirely different electric set. The acoustic set helps you experience the music in a whole new way. The intimate setting of the Synagogue really helps to put you in a mental space to feel the emotion behind the music and connect with it in a way that is more powerful than one of their regular shows.

Great venue, awesome live music, top notch performance.

just overall awesome, between the acoustic set and the rockin' finale, and the artwork appearing in the background. Crowd was just what I might imagine as followers of the band -- very mellow and respectable of one another. I enjoyed seeing the music made and learning which instruments came in where.

This was my first Cloud Cult show and it was mind blowing. The skill and energy of the band coupled with the atmosphere and GIANT sound made for an unparalleled experience. The blend of voice and instrument was perfect. I can't imagine how difficult it was to blend all of those elements with no evidence of the sounds competing. To put it simply.... GO SEE CLOUD CULT

When I first entered the acoustic set of Cloud Cult, I was not impressed. I felt the music was forced and the ambiance of having painters working behind the band contrived. As the first set moved on though, the quality of the performance seemed to intensify and make a very tangible connection with the audience. By the end of the first set I was hooked and sad to see them move on to their "regular" venue. The second set was great-ill fitted to the Sixth and I venue-but totally enjoyable and fresh. As lovely as the Sixth is, I didn't feel that it allowed for much "release" of energy from the crowd (there are pews.) In the end, I would definitely return to The Sixth and I Synagogue or to see Cloud Cult, just not the two combined.
