Ike Reilly Assassination
From Chicago, Illinois
First Twin Cities show on MN Live's calendar
From last.fm:
If you're looking for glossy pop, this ain't it. Ike and his Assassination reel off "real-rock", tune after tune. Lyrically rough and sharp, but poignant and intellectual. If you like fun, witty, and sometimes coarse (yet still smart) harder alt. rock, then this is your ticket to paradise. Crack open a beer with a few friends and enjoy.

Little Man
From St Paul
First show on MN Live's calendar
From last.fm:
The six song EP Orbital Amusement sonically delights with ray-gun and sputnik sounds, layered vocals and fuzzy pitch-bending guitars. While reminiscent of classics (Led Zeppelin I, Flash Gordon-era Queen), more modern sounds like that of The Black Keys, Wolfmother and Smashing Pumpkins abound on this heavy, lustful yet astral collection. With "Of Mind and Matter" (Eclectone Records) Little Man has combined the big hooks of classic Brit-Pop with something uniquely fresh. Read more about Little Man on Last.fm.
