From last.fm:
Minneapolis based Black Blondie is a band in the purest sense of the word: the tightly knit four-piece unit collectively writes and performs all of their music. Black Blondie's daring frontwoman, Samahra, has the attitude and charisma of a punk rock diva. She has a voice that would serve any American Idol three times over but lyrics that shock with wit and intellect.

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.

Fantastic Merlins
From Minnesota
First Twin Cities show on MN Live's calendar
From last.fm:
Listening to the Fantastic Merlins is like walking down an alley in a film noir: shadowy characters, ambiguous motives, and cliffhanger moments abound. Both dissonant and resonant, the Fantastic Merlins effortlessly weave together the dark and the light, the dangerous and innocent. Without any predetermined rules for the unexpected instrumentation of saxophone, cello, bass, and drums, the Fantastic Merlins’ cinematic sound coalesces organically. The result is an exquisite tension between jazz and chamber music, surprising listeners as often as it soothes. Read more about Fantastic Merlins on Last.fm.
