DUBUQUE, IOWA-
Grammy Award-winning rock band Soul Asylum will bring their one-of-a-kind performance to Mississippi Moon Bar on Saturday, Nov. 3.

Initially known as Loud Fast Rules, the band's raucous live sets and early releases on the hometown indie label Twin/Tone, including the albums Say What You Will, Made to Be Broken, and While You Were Out, earned them a loyal fan base. Soul Asylum's indie success led to the band entering the major-label mainstream with 1988s Hang Time and its 1990 follow-up And the Horse They Rode In On. The band garnered multi-platinum success with their commercial breakthrough albums, 1992s Grave Dancers Union and 1995s Let Your Dim Light Shine. Grave Dancers Union featured the international hit 'Runaway Train,' which won a 1994 Grammy as Best Rock Song, while Let Your Dim Light Shine spawned the hit 'Misery.'

The band went on hiatus after 1998s Candy from a Stranger, during which time founding singer/guitarist Dave Pirner released his first solo effort, Faces & Names.

Soul Asylum returned to action in 2006 with The Silver Lining and released Delayed Reaction six years later. Three and half decades down the road from the band's indie-punk origins, Change of Fortune came in 2016, co-produced by the band and longtime studio collaborator John Fields.

Soul Asylum's current lineup teams Pirner with guitarist Ryan Smith, bassist Winston Roye and drummer Michael Bland.

Showtime is at 8 p.m. on with ticket prices at $25.
