TOMMY STINSON

If rock and roll has a "working class hero" who has seen it all—from the chaotic basements of Minneapolis to the world’s biggest stadiums—it’s Tommy Stinson. This April, the founding member of The Replacements and former longtime bassist for Guns N’ Roses returns to the intimate confines of Randy Now’s Man Cave for a night of soulful, stripped-back storytelling and high-octane grit.

Stinson isn’t just a "survivor" of the industry; he is one of its most prolific songwriters. Whether he’s fronting Bash & Pop, leading Perfect, or touring with his latest duo Cowboys in the Campfire, Tommy brings a signature blend of "smartass and sincere" that defines the best of American rock.

The Dynamic Duo: For this run, Tommy is joined by the captivating Karla Rose. Far more than just an "opener," Rose is a vital part of the evening’s chemistry. A powerhouse singer-songwriter in her own right, she provides haunting violin accompaniment and lush harmony vocals that transform Stinson’s raucous anthems into something deeply personal and atmospheric.

The two have developed a telepathic stage presence, moving effortlessly from the rockabilly shuffle of Tommy’s latest album, Wronger, to the beloved classics that made the Mats the most influential band of the 80s.

What to Expect:

• An Unfiltered Setlist: Expect a deep dive into Tommy’s massive catalog, including solo gems like "Village Gorilla Head," Bash & Pop favorites, and perhaps a few surprises from the Replacements era.
• The "Man Cave" Experience: Randy Now’s venue is the perfect setting for this show. It’s a place where the barrier between the artist and the audience disappears. You aren't just watching a concert; you’re sitting in on a masterclass of songcraft.
• New Music: Tommy has been teasing new solo material throughout 2026, so be prepared to be among the first to hear what he’s been cooking up in the studio.
