Loss Leader

02/01/2026

Loss Leader is a Minneapolis band. We’re an anti-fascist band. We’re a band that strives to build community. We believe that music is resistance and art is action. We’re incredibly grateful in times like these to keep the company of such good folks as our Chicago pals Flatfoot 56 and so excited to have them here with us at this critical moment for our city and country. We’re grateful to be joined by our local friends in and new friends in Come stand with us 3/7/26 The Hook for a night of love community and resistance.
