Spotlight: Wolfmother

Last update: November 7, 2009 - 5:03 PM

WOLFMOTHER

Saturday: Wolfmother emerged in 2006 as a heartwarming flashback to the heavy-rock days of 1973. The Aussie power trio evoked Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath with an irresistible frontman, Andrew Stockdale, right. For Wolfmother's second CD, "Cosmic Egg," he has replaced the rhythm section and gotten a bit more prog, but the group -- now a quartet -- is still lost in the 1970s. With recommended openers Heartless Bastards and thenewno2, featuring Beatles scion Dhani Harrison. (7 p.m. Sat. $25-$49. State Theatre, 805 Hennepin Av. S., Mpls. 1-800-982-2787.)
