Ten years ago, the Houston-based band Khruangbin gathered in a barn in rural Texas to record what became their debut album, "The Universe Smiles Upon You." A decade later, the band members reconvened in that same barn to revisit that music — sessions that resulted in a 10th-anniversary “revisited” edition of the album, which Khruangbin have dubbed "The Universe Smiles Upon You ii."

While on tour in support of the revisited album, Khruangbin were in the Twin Cities to play at First Avenue in Minneapolis. Before the show, they stopped at The Current to play selections from The Universe Smiles Upon You ii, creating a sound that The Current’s Jill Riley has described as “space twang.” Watch a performance of "Two Fish and an Elephant ii " above.
