Communist Daughter, Alpha Consumer @ Triple Rock

admin — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 11:16:42 +0000

If you’ve checked out Dosh, Andrew Bird, Fog, Fat Kid Wednesdays, Happy Apple, The James Buckley Trio, or about a dozen other local bands, chances are you’ve heard at least one member of local quasi-supergroup Alpha Consumer. Jeremy Ylvisaker and Michael Lewis have logged some serious miles this year in Andrew Bird’s backing band, and J.T. Bates is a drummer for several Twin Cities projects, but the trio’s first passion is this loud, cocksure rock band. – Jake Mohan

Fat Kid Wednesdays @ Artists' Quarter

admin — Fri, 02 Jan 2009 07:18:13 +0000

Coming to the AQ

Friday, January 2, Fat Kid Wednesdays (9 pm, $10)
Fat Kid Wednesdays (FKW) features Mike Lewis on saxophones, Adam Linz on bass and JT Bates on drums. Their latest release, SINGLES, on the French label Hope Streets, features some of FKW’s original compositions. The group’s previous release, THE ART OF CHERRY, was devoted to the music of free jazz trumpeter Don Cherry, also on Hope Streets label. FKW emerged from the music underground after spending the last ten years developing their music in small edgy clubs, and more recently on the road in France where their spontaneous and spirited sound is celebrated. Come down to the AQ, you’ll enjoy this inventive music.

More Cowbell’s FEATURED EVENT

A CELEBRATION OF BOXING DAY!

MONDO MEGA (First Show! w/ Jesse Schuster as seen in Caroline Smith, Lucy Michelle, Hummingbird, Dump Truck & Kicks and Spurs)

WISHBOOK

$7 IF YOU BRING A NON-PERISHABLE FOOD ITEM!

For people unsure of what this holiday is all about: Boxing Day is a public holiday in the United Kingdom, Canada, New Zealand and Australia, as well as many other members of the British Commonwealth of Nations, and Greece. It is based on the tradition of giving gifts to the less fortunate members of society. We will say funny things later when we feel funnier. At this point, as more people have their hours cut, or are laid off, we really hope to bring people together in the idea of helping each other out as these rough times only get rougher; so forgive us if we would like to do some good. Special thanks goes to Nate Wishbook for getting this machine rolling!
