Need I say more. We are going to have some other fun stuff going on at this show on the non-musical end and are working it out but this is going to be a blast! Who said January in Minnesota sucks?
Minneapolis’ finest synth-pop duo will take their breathtaking live show to the East Coast and back in February. They are also hitting SXSW in March and have very busy tour plans for April as well. They will be touring to support their debut full-length CD and soon to drop 12″ LP
They will celebrate with a homecoming show on 2.27 at The Cedar Cultural Center with one of Best New Bands; No Bird Sing.
Here is what their first leg of the tour is looking like.

Songwriter, danielleinfelder got his first taste of frontmandom in his late teens, at the lyrical helm of progressive rock outfit, Last of the Dinosaurs (members of Tapes ‘n Tapes, Lucy Michelle and the Velvet Lapelles). Quite satisfied with the experience, he taught himself how to play the guitar after LOTD’s dissolution. The result: a handful of original compositions and the urge to play in public. With the accompaniment of old friends, Matt Schiebe, Kyle Christensen, and Joe Berlin, mondOmega kicks out thoughtful literate jams. If the personal is political, then mondOmega is a manifesto. Songs about life, songs about love, songs about Haiti.

More Cowbell would love to send one of our lucky readers and a friend to check out this up and coming songwriter at the Triple Rock next Wednesday (January 13th). Lissie recently finished up an opening slot for Ray Lamontagne and is generating quite a bit of excitement.
Singer-songwriter Lissie Maurus was born and raised in eastern Illinois, right beside the Mississippi River. The nature-loving, solitude-seeking Midwesterner began writing music in high school and quickly began performing at coffee shops and open mics.
Now residing in California, Maurus is about to release her debut, the Why You Runnin’ EP, which provides a five-song introduction to her bluesy folk. Shifting from upbeat tunes to soft-spoken country, hints of ’60s soul and subtle pop, Maurus’ sweet and rustic voice ties each track together seamlessly.
To enter to win, email contests@morecowbell.net with your full name and phone number with the subject ‘Lissie Contest’ by Monday, January 11th at Noon.
Watch Lissie cover Bob Dylan’s ‘Ramona’
