Golden Smog, the legendary supergroup rooted in the Minneapolis music scene of the late 1980s, brings its rare live performance to White Eagle Hall this December. Known for blending members of iconic bands including Wilco, The Jayhawks, Soul Asylum, and Run Westy Run, Golden Smog has cultivated a devoted following with its Americana-infused sound, playful spirit, and deeply melodic originals.
The Fall 2025 lineup features Jeff Tweedy (Wilco), Gary Louris (The Jayhawks), Dan Murphy (Soul Asylum), Kraig Johnson (Run Westy Run), and Steve Gorman (Black Crowes), reuniting much of the classic lineup that made the mid-90s albums Down By the Old Mainstream and Weird Tales essential listening. From their humble beginnings as a side-project cover band with pun-filled antics, Golden Smog has evolved into a studio and live act that balances humor, heartfelt songwriting, and masterful musicianship.
Golden Smog’s live shows are rare events, making this Jersey City performance particularly special. Past appearances, including sold-out shows at First Avenue in Minneapolis and select opening slots for The Jayhawks, have demonstrated the group’s ability to recreate their signature sound while keeping each performance unique. Fans can expect a mix of classic hits, deep cuts, and electrifying instrumentation that spans the band’s celebrated decades-long history.
For concertgoers and music enthusiasts looking to experience this Americana supergroup up close, Golden Smog at White Eagle Hall promises a night of nostalgia, musical craftsmanship, and unforgettable live energy.
