At this event, current and former bandmembers and special guests will perform songs from The Gated Community’s full catalog.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PekF0NkSlFE https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/8279f3d0-a5b5-11f1-8990-5d04d231a2dd-rimg-w1105-h740-dc080808-gmir.jpg South Asian American singer-songwriter Sumanth Gopinath formed The Gated Community in 2006 in the city’s storied West Bank neighborhood. The band is known for its gripping original songs, beautiful vocal harmonies, and multiple lead singers. Encompassing country, folk, bluegrass, and rock influences, TGC's style draws comparisons to Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, Gillian Welch, and the Band, among others. Music critic Chris Riemenschneider describes the band as “more familial and relevant than ever,” and Adventures in Americana contributor Doyle Turner notes that the band’s music provides “an arms-wide-open offering to everyone who listens.”The band's sixth album, Goodbye Work (2025), was included in The Minnesota Star Tribune's midyear list of top 10 albums from the state, alongside acts like Trampled by Turtles and Alan Sparhawk (of Low). The title track "Goodbye Work" was also nominated by the Midwest Country Music Organization for "Song of the Year." Their recently released EP Hope to Hell was recorded and disseminated during the height of the ICE occupation in Minneapolis earlier this year. Hope to Hell, along with live performances, has helped raise over $13,000 for local immigrant rights organizations and mutual aid. This fall, The Gated Community will be featured performers at the 2026 Folk Alliance Region Midwest conference, alongside other Minnesota-based artists Chastity Brown and Annie Mack, as well as musicians from across the country and world. They plan to release their seventh full-length album in 2027.Learn more about The Gated Community here. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/minneapolis/the-gated-community-and-friends/100001995970269807 - **Event Categories**: fitness, Music, Entertainment, performances - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 22.51, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Minneapolis - **state**: MN - **country**: United States - **location**: The Cedar Cultural Center - **lat**: 44.9694419 - **long**: -93.2476028 - **full address**: The Cedar Cultural Center, 416 Cedar Avenue South, Minneapolis, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: The Gated Community and Friends - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/f6492c867ae5c336c9125628d325bc4cb977765347e7e7422f656090be654164-rimg-w1200-h969-dc080808-gmir.jpg?v=1788233481 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is The Gated Community and Friends being held? - **A:** The Gated Community and Friends takes place on Fri, 18 Sep, 2026 at 08:00 pm to Fri, 18 Sep, 2026 at 11:00 pm at The Cedar Cultural Center, 416 Cedar Avenue South, Minneapolis, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing The Gated Community and Friends? - **A:** The Gated Community and Friends is organized by The Cedar Cultural Center. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
