Dec 27th at Amsterdam Bar & Hall!
Meet the bands! Dec 27th at Amsterdam!
-Socktopus is a 5-piece band delivering energetic live shows that will leave you blissfully unaware of the laundry you left in the washer. Friendly-lighthearted-angst is the sound, based off pop, hip-hop, and electronic genres. Socktopus arose from the depths of an โobscure ocean documentary fever dreamโ in the spring of 2021 and has kept these tentacles waving ever since. Funky bass grooves, captivating vocal hooks, paired with heavy hitting drum and synth lines. Socktopus brings something for everyone, even your dad.
-Space Monkey Mafia brings a new take on high-powered, horn-driven rock. The six-piece band is rooted in the best parts of 90s/00s ska and punk, infused with a healthy dose of contemporary influence, and combined with a lyrical urgency and message to meet the moment. With the next batch of anti-establishment anthems and self-care bangers already being compiled, the group looks to the horizon, ready to keep audiences hollering and skanking for years to come.
-Hiahli is a live hip-hop band that plays rock n roll instruments. The high-octane MC, Cold Sweat, delivers his Golden-age hip-hop lyrics over a variety of musical stylings. In addition to the usual fatback rhythms, you may hear undercurrents of outlaw country, disco, and grunge rock. The group weaves a tapestry of sound, taking the listener through grungy, boom-bap beats that inspire good times.
-The One Egg Wonder is a DJ/producer who is quickly making his mark in the twin cities. He leans toward electro-funk, combining old school and new school with a twist, while also getting down with some dirty wubs. With a magnetic stage presence, he effortlessly hypes up the crowd with his goofy dance moves and throwback singalongs.
-100bees is a team of analog video artists that specialize in live projection visuals. They got their start over the pandemic, exploring the abstract video genre, racertrash. The hobby soon turned into a passion (they might sa
Oct 12th at Hook & Ladder in MPLS! Meet the artists:
Hailing from the mountains of Montana, Desperate Electric is a captivating soul-pop duo that brings vibrant energy and infectious melodies to the forefront of the music scene. Their soulful pop sound is infused with elements of funk, R&B, and disco, resulting in a fusion of timeless melodies and modern production. With their flashy outfits, magnetic stage presence, and unparalleled live performances, Desperate Electric is a force to be reckoned with.
Vinny Franco and the Love Channel is a dynamic and soulful musical collective with a lineup that features a vibrant horn section and captivating background vocals. Their music is a fusion of soulful melodies, infectious rhythms, and powerful lyrics that tell stories of love, life, and everything in between. Rooted in the traditions of R&B and soul, their sound is both nostalgic and fresh.
Cat Tales is a 5-piece funk band based in Minneapolis. Each with over a decade of performing in various bands, these funky cats have been around the block in the Twin Cities music scene. With Cat Tales, the stank-face abounds. With groovy bass lines, jazzy keys, complex time signatures, and sultry saxophones, they put on a high-energy show that is dripping with personality and spunk.
100bees is a team of analog video artists that specialize in live projection visuals. They got their start over the pandemic, exploring the abstract video genre, racertrash. The hobby soon turned into a passion (they might say obsession), and they have since acquired a variety of new technology that allows them to create glitchy, nostalgic, music-reactive visuals that add pizzazz to any live show. They pride themselves on being almost completely analog, using synthesizers to mix and generate sources by hand.

Meet the artists! ๐ถ These cool cats will be taking the stage on Nov 2nd at the Amsterdam! ๐๐ผMild Manner: Eclectic but focused, rowdy but controlled; Mild Manner is a band of contradictions. A 5-piece of indie kids adrift in adulthood, Mild Manner offers a performance thatโs constantly in flux between a hip-shaking chaos and quiet energy. Thick, distorted influences of The Strokes and Cage the Elephant are chased by those of Billy Joel shuffle and Bernard Purdie groove; moxie of Vampire Weekend in one-two punch with the modernity of Polica. Formed in the late months of 2015, Mild Manner has been performing while fronted by snger/saxophonist Dante Leyva ahead of guitarist Steven Maurer, vocalist Sara Liebl, drummer Ryan LeMay, and bassist/synthist/producer Riley Jacobsen.

Soon to be your favorite band -and cocktail! Pic by Darin Kamnetz. ๐๐ผDesperate Electric: Hailing from the mountains of Montana, Desperate Electric is a captivating soul-pop duo that brings vibrant energy and infectious melodies to the forefront of the music scene.
