Walker Kong
From Minneapolis
First show on MN Live's calendar
From last.fm:
Over the last seven years, Minneapolis-based pop group Walker Kong has been on a mission to pour silver icing over a raw collection of mega-hits. Their latest album, Deliver Us from People, brilliantly captures the band's live shambolic glory while continuing to integrate the highly reflective sound present on their two previous full-lengths. Exploring the relationship between animals and humans in modern times, Deliver Us from People is nothing less than a rave-up brimming with eternal love, fatal sacrifice, and the wonderful tragedy of symbiosis.

Vicious Vicious
From Minneapolis
First show since since March 30, 2007 • First Turf Club show since October 14, 2006 • Sixth show on MN Live's calendar since June 17, 2005
From last.fm:
Although the Minneapolis group Vicious Vicious began as Erik Appelwick's moniker for his debut album recorded entirely on four-track, Blood and Clover, it soon grew into a full-blown live band when Darren Jackson, Alex Oana, and Martin Dosh climbed aboard. With the quartet hashing out arrangements of Appelwick's home recordings, they began making waves in Minneapolis, and the local press started to take notice, earning Appelwick a nomination for best rock recording by the Minnesota Music Academy in 2002.

From last.fm:
There are two groups with the name ESTATE. Estate (1) was formed in the early months of the year 2001 in Linz/Austria. Estate (2) is a synth hop duo from the US who's first album "The Vacation" sounds like the duo have been at it for years. Estate (1)It originally consisted of Michael Forstner (Drums), Josef "Zap" Mayer (Vocals), Paul Schausberger (Bass) and Armin Breuer (Guitar). Estate (2) Coining the genre Synth Hop, they do exactly that. Thick synths, dance-y hip hop beatz, and vocals that will remind you of when hall 'n' oats was young and lovely.
