SUMMARY:Delicate Friend EP Release with Bad Posture Club and Rabeca
DESCRIPTION:EVENT DETAILS \n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\nTHE MISSION ROOM AT The Hook AND LADDER THEATER \n\nDoors 7:00pm\nMusic 8:00pm\n21+\nGA*: $10 ADV / $15 DOS\n\n*Does not include feesNO REFUNDS \n\n		COVID-19 Policies\n	\n\n		\n					\n\n	\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\n EVENT DESCRIPTION \n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\nDelicate Friend EP Release with Bad Posture Club and Rabeca\n \n\nLocal witchy alt rock band Delicate Friend releases their debut EP\, supported by Bad Posture Club and Rabeca \n\nDelicate Friend is a witchy alt-rock project from Minneapolis\, MN including Andrea Leonard (guitar/singer-songwriter)\, Dan Crist (drums)\, Rachel Bearinger (lead guitar)\, and Kourtney Ryan (bass). Each member comes from a deep experience performing solo and/or with bands\, and they each bring their multiple talents to the songwriting table.They pull their love for 90s rock\, emo\, and folk-rock to make a unique\, moody sound. Influences come from the likes of Wolf Alice\, Smashing Pumpkins\, and Fleetwood Mac.  \n \nBad Posture Club is a Minneapolis-based folk duo made up of Maren Day and Morgan Kavanagh. Their songwriting explores themes of home-places\, memory\, and family\, finding inspiration in the strange relationship between human softness and the unyielding societal structures we both participate in\, and push against. Their songs are purposefully open and sparse\, crafting intricate and experimental harmonies through voice\, banjo\, guitar\, and sometimes a 100-year-old pump organ. \n\nMinneapolis’ Rabeca never stays in one place for too long—each song meanders from meditative solos to upbeat drum shuffles and rich chordal harmonies. The quintet first joined forces for a living room cabaret performance in 2019 and have since melded their unique musical tastes into a hearty musical stew. Drawing on their individual backgrounds in jazz big band\, madrigal singing\, and jam bands\, Rabeca fuses improvised solos with catchy hooks. Their debut album Potluck (2020) captures the band’s playful energy and love for a good meal. Rabeca is Alex (keys)\, Anna (saxophone)\, Colleen (guitar)\, David (bass)\, and Satchel (drums).\n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\n		\n					\n\n	\n\n\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\n\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\n	\n								\n									\n					\n								\n\n	\n	\n		\n					\n\n	\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\nThis activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a Minnesota State Arts Board Operating Support grant\, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.

Music\, dance\, words\, and stories will bring out all that hides beneath. \n\n\n \nFreaque is for the derelicts\, the heretics\, the tree stumps\, and those who live on the fringes of society. A tattered voice\, made of strung out words\, hung to dry over broken chords on his mother’s piano. His songs range from the kind of folk and blues you find in graveyards and gardens\, to fuller grooves you can find in swamps\, sewers\, and junkyards. In a wooden womb of darkness\, he took what he had and rose above a society that constantly tells us we are not enough\, that we’re only worth the possessions we own\, the money in our bank accounts\, and our body’s abilities. We do not have to conform to societal standards to be valued as human beings. That is why he creates music and art. \nHouse Band – Freaque: @freaquedom https://gabrielrodreick.com/freaque\n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\n		\n					\n\n	\n\n\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\n\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\n	\n								\n									\n					\n								\n\n	\n	\n		\n					\n\n	\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\nThis activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a Minnesota State Arts Board Operating Support grant\, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.

A tale of the beauty\, adventure\, discovery\, love lost and found\, life and death\, an observation of human nature with its promise\, quirks\, and flaws. It’s a travelogue of the sights and nuance two lane travel offers to those who are aware and slow down enough to have these memories and experiences engraved on you for a lifetime. Grab your shades\, a loved one\, and your thirst for adventure and come along on a road trip down the Two Lane Highway. \n\n“This sophomore outing does not disappoint. Every track has a mile-wide groove. Intense songwriting with a laidback delivery and impeccable musicianship throughout” – Kate MacKenzie\, Grammy Nominee \n“Someone Like You” – Dave Bille YouTube\n  \n\nBluegrass\, blues\, swing\, Americana\, country\, tin pan alley\, old time\, and just a little pop are all representing in the music you may hear from King Wilkie’s Dream.  The band sets out to stretch musically and creatively\, while entertaining in a way that transcends generations and connects will audiences. Whether it is an original song\, a well-worn traditional number\, or something from outside the genre of bluegrass\, the turn receives the same attention to detail\, resulting in the band’s new sound\, big noise. \n\n“Soulful\, bluesy\, rootsy are only a few adjectives that apply to this group. Fun and entertaining. Don’t miss this group!”  – Doug Lohman\, Armadillo Lights and Sound\n\n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\n		\n					\n\n	\n\n\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\n\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\n	\n								\n									\n					\n								\n\n	\n	\n		\n					\n\n	\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\nThis activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a Minnesota State Arts Board Operating Support grant\, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.

Pre-party starts at 6:30pm. Showtime at 8pm. \nIra Ford\, from Maryland\, was a lyricist before he followed his passion of comedy. He was always amazed at how a comedian could hold so many people’s attention. Now based in Minneapolis\, he is an open book who talks about life experiences ranging from drugs to family. He unapologetically says what he thinks. His unique and hilarious stories earned him a semifinalist finish at The Funniest Person with a Day Job Contest at Rick Bronson’s House of Comedy\, and had his own wildly popular monthly showcase which he hosted and curates “Laughs and Legends” at Lakes and Legends Brewery in downtown Minneapolis. He is currently a paid regular emcee at the hottest comedy club in Minnesota Acme Comedy Company.\n \n\nMatt Dooyema is a proud pet father of 4 from St Cloud. A bartender by trade\, Matt’s humor has been influenced by the stories from behind the bartop and the soul crushing realization that his mother was most likely right about not finishing college. Irreverent by nature\, Silly by design\, Bitter by circumstance\, Matt is a high energy performer willing to please and host of the Keller Comedy Open Mic & Co host of the Awful Service Podcast. \nAt 19 years old\, Aidan McCluskey gave up on his associate’s degree and began his comedy career. Four months after his first open mic\, he won Acme’s Funniest Person Contest\, becoming the youngest winner in the contest’s history. After taking a short sabbatical to join a pyramid scheme in Las Vegas\, Aidan returned to Minneapolis in 2021 and quickly rose to the top of the local scene. He is now a regular at Acme Comedy Company and The House of Comedy. He’s been a guest on the Adam Friedland Show and hosts his own semi-regular podcast\, Smoke Show. You can find him headlining a random bar in the middle of nowhere. \nGabby Ok was the finalist in The Funniest Person With a Day Job Contest. \nSydni Stephens is the producer of The Gopher Hole Comedy Club and HOC Funniest Person Finalist.\n\n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\n		\n					\n\n	\n\n\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\n\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\n	\n								\n									\n					\n								\n\n	\n	\n		\n					\n\n	\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\nThis activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a Minnesota State Arts Board Operating Support grant\, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.

Bootcut is filling in!**\n \nRich Mattson is the great cosmic northwoods singer-songwriter rock and roll freak\, and Germaine Gemberling is committed not only in love but to their wild adventure in all things musical. The two of them left the Twin Cities of Minneapolis/St. Paul 10 and 18 years ago\, respectively\, and hooked up at Mattson’s recording studio in Sparta MN in 2007. This is their “hauntingly beautiful” cosmic folk group featuring acoustic guitar\, strings\, and their unique vocal harmonies.\n \nMattson is best known for his work leading the bands Ol’ Yeller\, the Glenrustles\, The Bitter Spills\, and the Tisdales. These bands have performed alongside many big-time acts: Wilco\, Trampled By Turtles\, Soul Asylum\, Low\, The Jayhawks..and he has rocked stages from the Troubadour to the Mercury Lounge to Minneapolis‘ own Guthrie Theater. He is also known far and wide for his contributions to hundreds of artists’ recordings at Sparta Sound\, which is a former church in northern Minnesota. Germaine Gemberling fronted an all-girl punk band called Smut (Twin-Tone/Spanish Fly Records) in the early 90’s before heading for the country and the Americana-tinged songwriting role she assumed later.\n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\n		\n					\n\n	\n\n\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\n\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\n	\n								\n									\n					\n								\n\n	\n	\n		\n					\n\n	\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\nThis activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a Minnesota State Arts Board Operating Support grant\, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.

Cindy’s celebrating her second release on Boston’s Rum Bar Records with a major blowout extravaganza featuring the snarly punk bops of the Spit Takes\, the in-your-face exuberance of Surly Grrly\, and Cindy’s fierce rock action\, all served up by the former Miss Twin Cities Pride and current diva-licious emcee Gosh Alice Jones! —–Cindy Lawson began her rock and roll career in Minneapolis in 1985 with her all-female rock band\, The Clams. Over the years\, she has played in several bands in Minneapolis and New York City\, but then took a break starting in the late 90’s. She returned in full force with a new band in 2021 and in 2022 released “New Tricks”\, her first full length record in 25 years on Boston’s Rum Bar Records. New Tricks got airplay both nationally (on Little Steven’s Underground Garage and on Little Steven’s Coolest Songs in the World) and internationally\, garnering rave reviews in publications across the globe. In April of 2023\, she released a new single and video called “Don’t Come Crying To Me” that was immediately picked for Little Steven’s Coolest Songs in the World and is currently in rotation on Sirius XM. It’s also been chosen for The Racket’s Local Music Playlist for 2023.  \nShe’s backed by longtime collaborator and inventive guitarist Jerry Lefkowitz (of The Young Nashvillians\, Something Fierce\, Whoops Kitty\, and Fauna\, among others)\, bassist and multi- instrumentalist Dave Randall\, whose rock bonafides include The Spectors\, The Boot R&B\, The Silent Treatment\, Kinda Kinky\, and many more\, and on the drums is Mark Devaraj\, who’s kept the beat going in bands High on Stress\, Whiskey Rock and Roll Club\, The Heavy Sixers\, as well as dozens of other Minneapolis bands. \nGosh Alice Jones: From the streets of Provincetown Massachusetts to the lakes of Minnesota Gosh has been the mouth on the mic hosting Rochester Pride\, Mankato Pride\, and Twin Cities Pride. She’s been Miss Gay Southeast MN\, Miss Twin Cities Pride\, Miss North Star Gay Rodeo Association and the Duchess of the Big Red Lips in the Imperial Court of MN. She’s a little bit country and a whole lot of rock and roll.  Join her in celebrating the record release of the one and only Cindy Lawson! Spit Takes is a new Minneapolis punk band with VansAnn (Pink Triggers) on vocals\, Monet Wong (Mad Mojo Jett\, The Toxenes) on guitar\, Angie Lynch (Big Salt) on bass and Charles Gehr (Pink Mink\, Seawhores) on drums. The band’s overall approach has been aptly described as “…big riffs and thunderous drumming paired with mosh-pit friendly hooks and choruses…hilarious and defiantly crude\, feminist…delivered with a zero f*cks given aplomb…”  \nSurly Grrly is a MPLS-based queercore protest band that likes to have fun while loudly fucking the patriarchy. Their live shows are filled with rage\, passion\, and politically-driven lyrics addressing bigotry\, queerness\, and misogyny. With a satisfyingly raw 80’s garage punk sound\, Surly Grrly uses catchy hooks and tempo changes to rile up a crowd\, mixing originals with a variety of classic punk rock covers. The band’s current members are vocalist/guitarist Medbh McNamara\, guitarist/vocalist Eloïse Boigenzahn\, bassist Lou Levy & drummer Peter Korhonen. \n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\n		\n					\n\n	\n\n\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\n\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\n	\n								\n									\n					\n								\n\n	\n	\n		\n					\n\n	\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\nThis activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a Minnesota State Arts Board Operating Support grant\, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
