Indigo Girls in Concert in Minneapolis

The Indigo Girls — the folk rock duo of Amy Ray and Emily Saliers — have been making music together since their school days in Decatur, Georgia, and first performed under the name while students at Emory University. After releasing the early album *Strange Fire* and signing with a major label, they built a following with songs including “Closer to Fine” and “Galileo,” winning a Grammy for Best Contemporary Folk Album.

Their Minneapolis concert draws on a catalog that spans the early ground-up records through later albums released on their own IG Recordings label. Both members remain active beyond the duo — Ray has released solo albums and founded a non-profit label supporting independent musicians, while Saliers works as an author and restaurant entrepreneur. As longtime activists for political and environmental causes, they bring a pointed, heartfelt perspective to the stage.
