| Spirits of the Red City + Nona and Marshall | |
| Spirits of the Red City is a collective of friends and wandering musicians whose members call home places as close as Minneapolis and as far as Alaska and New York City. Call the music time-weathered folk or strewn remnants of Americana or something else entirely. Here’s what you’ll hear: Opaque lyrics, at once lonely and longing and hopeful and weary and love-strewn, backed by guitar, cello, banjo, trumpet, mandolin, accordion, viola, ukulele, drums, toys, group singing, occasional clapping and more. All nine members of Spirits of the Red City will celebrate the band’s debut release, “Hunter Moon,” with this rare local performance before hitting the road in early 2009. Opening are Marshall and Nona, good friends and members of the acclaimed Minneapolis-by-way-of-elsewhere group Dark Dark Dark. “(The) music strikes me as independent among independents — at once removed from fashion, and plugged in to a vast, peculiarly American cultural landscape.” — Joe O’Connell of Elephant Micah Sunday January 4 at 9:00 pm (8:30 doors) |
Good Morning Gentlemen @ Bryant Lake Bowl
a special note from andrew broder:
Tonite! All right! 7 PM at the Bryant Lake Bowl.
The 4th installment of GMG… a series of plays by Mark Erickson, starring him, me, Kristen Kvalsten and Jeremy Ylvisaker… with special guests!
C’mon down and bring a friend for total entertainment experience.
awww yeah…. plays and shit….
Good Morning, Gentlemen is Mark Erickson, Andrew Broder, Kristen Kvalsten and Jeremy Ylvisaker (as DJ Crown Salesman), an actual experimental theater/language/sound club that is glad to meet you. What’s that? We’re fired? Who do you think you are? We do the firing around here. We fire you! You can’t fire us. We’re Good Morning, Gentlemen.
Good Morning, Gentlemen began making amusing radio dramas but have since left that genre behind for their scheduled showings at the BLB. Why? Because radio dramas only work on the radio. Have you ever been to a live radio show? BO-RING!
Amongst the four members of Good Morning, Gentlemen there are two college degrees, three mortgages on homes in the Twin Cities Metropolitan area and one child. If you know these people at all it’s probably because three of them have made respectable attempts at making a living playing music (the exception is Kristen who is tone deaf and wouldn’t know a prepared piano from a DAT tape). In the past twenty years Andrew, Jeremy and Mark have shared stages and studios with MF Doom, Cheap Trick, Deerhoof, The Little River Band, Andrew Bird, Ornette Coleman, Tom Herbers, The Ohio Players and Qbert. Jeremy once chatted up Monica Lewinsky backstage and even gave her a CD to share with her friends.
Coming back in September – every Sunday (7, 14, 21, 28) at 7pm.
