MRS. Skannotto
From Rochester, New York
First Twin Cities show since since January 25, 2013 • First Entry show • First headlining show
From last.fm:
Since their inception in 1998, Mrs. Skannotto's sound has evolved with the times. Continuing to push their limits in 2013, the boys in Skannotto have transformed from a poppy, 3rd Wave, college ska band to scene changing, 4th Wave architects! Riding a career spanning 15 years, the guys in Mrs. Skannotto are no strangers to their brand of third-wave ska-rock. The Rochester, NY-based six-piece just dropped its fifth studio release, a brand-spanking-new 14-track full-length effort titled All These Evolutions. Read more about Mrs. Skannotto on Last.fm.

Umbrella Bed

First show since since March 21, 2013 • First Entry show • 18th show on MN Live's calendar since March 13, 2004
From last.fm:
From the first note to the last beat, live or on disc, no words better define the horn-powered ska of Umbrella Bed than “controlled chaos”. Formed in 1995 as ska music was catching on in the mainstream for the third time, Umbrella Bed rode the “3rd wave” through the end of the 90’s. UB’s style, reminiscent of the “2nd wave” sound of popular Two-Tone English bands like Madness, The Specials and the English Beat, established Umbrella Bed as a mainstay in the club scene. Ten years later, Umbrella Bed is still alive and kickin'. Read more about Umbrella Bed on Last.fm.
