Cheap Trick

With more than 5,000 performances spanning four decades and 20 million records sold worldwide, Cheap Trick is undoubtedly one of the most influential classic rock groups of the past 50 years. The band was formed in 1974 and while it has evolved throughout the years, Cheap Trick has continued to reach mainstream and critical success. Hits such as "I Want You To Want Me," "Dream Police," and "Surrender" have cemented the group as one of America's top rock 'n' roll bands of all time. The band will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in a special ceremony on April 8.

Soul Asylum

Formed in Minnesota, alternative rock band Soul Asylum will release Change of Fortune, its eleventh studio album, and its first for Entertainment One Music (eOne Music), on March 18. The dozen-song set embodies the band's trademark balance of rocking abandon, infectious melodic craft and raw-nerved emotional depth, boasting a compelling set of new compositions from founding singer/guitarist David Pirner, while showcasing the strength and versatility of Soul Asylum's current lineup, which teams Pirner with guitarist Justin Sharbono, bassist Winston Roye and drummer Michael Bland.

Jazmine Sullivan

Eleven-time Grammy nominated artist Jazmine Sullivan first hit the scene in 2008 with the release of her debut album Fearless, which spawned hits like "Need U Bad," "Bust Your Windows" and "Lions, Tigers & Bears." In 2010, the Philadelphia native released Love Me Back, which produced the chart-topping fan favorite "Holding You Down." After a four-year hiatus, Jazmine returned in 2015 with Reality Show, which debuted at #1 on the Billboard R&B Albums chart and #2 on the Billboard R&B/Hip-Hop Album chart and garnered three Grammy nominations that included "Best R&B Album." Over this past year, Sullivan has appeared on "Good Morning America," "Live! With Kelly & Michael," "The Tonight Show featuring Jimmy Fallon," headlined two sold-out tours and opened up for Sam Smith (who is also a huge fan). Sullivan is currently focusing on her writing and gearing up to head back into the studio to work on her new project.

Salute to the State of Hockey

The outdoor game will feature a special second intermission salute to hockey in Minnesota, featuring former and current NHL and college players with ties to the game in the state.
