From last.fm:
The Ashtray Hearts are a six-piece ensemble from Minneapolis that plays what is best described as ‘apartment music.’ Taking elements of Americana, folk, alt-country and other influences, The Ashtray Hearts add eclectic instrumentation (horns, organs, accordions) to create their lonely, broken-hearted sound. http://www.myspace.com/theashtrayhearts Read more about The Ashtray Hearts on Last.fm.
Painted Saints
From Minneapolis
First show since since April 26, 2008 • First Turf Club show since November 22, 2007 • 19th show on MN Live's calendar since April 15, 2006
From last.fm:
painted saints hail from Denver/Minneapolis and do the ever so popular spaghetti western-heroin klezmer-chamber country-sad bastard thing. They write tin can and twine romances in a color of rust with backdrops of long wind swept open roads framed by tangled barbed wire and naked telephone poles. Their songs are of ashtray broken hearts and lansdscapes of beauty and sorrow borrowing harmonies from old eastern europe, the desert southwest and the sentiments of working class rust belt americana. they are also really into pompous descriptions.

Bill Caperton
From Minneapolis
First show since since June 7, 2007 • Fourth show on MN Live's calendar since September 9, 2005
From last.fm:
This is some music from Bill Caperton. These songs were recorded during a fallow period for Bills other band, Ela. His friends Peter Leggett and Robert Skoro came and played with him. Their friend Joe Johnson recorded these songs as they started to come to life. IF it hangs from the wall, it’s a painting. If it rests on the floor, it’s a sculpture. If it’s very big or very small, it’s conceptual. If it forms part of the wall, if it forms part of the floor, it’s architecture. If you have to buy a ticket, it’s modern.
