Sunspot
From Madison, Wisconsin
First Twin Cities show on MN Live's calendar
From last.fm:
Singalong rock with big guitars, smart lyrics, and a sense of humor, the trio from Madison, Wisconsin combines the physical impact of hard-hitting rock with the ear candy of pop music and the thoughtful words of a singer-songwriter. Think the Fountains of Wayne or Barenaked Ladies with Lars Ulrich on drums and Eddie Van Halen on guitar. Sunspot's most recent CD, Singularity, was named Madison's Rock Album of the Year by the Madison Area Music Association. Read more about Sunspot on Last.fm.
