Seymore Saves the World
From Minneapolis
First show since since February 1, 2007 • First headlining show • Seventh show on MN Live's calendar since June 28, 2006
From last.fm:
Minneapolis-based indie power-pop band Seymore Saves the World is made up of pianist and lead vocalist Scott Hefte (Superdanger), bassist Shawn Neary (Ex-Tapes 'N Tapes), and drummer Nate Perbix. The band writes about the position of outcast teenager and nerd. Pitchfork describes the band's sound as "borrow{ing} a great deal from similarly wry piano-based 1990s pop artists such as the New Radicals or Fastball. However, no influence more blatantly shows through these twelve songs than Ben Folds." Seymore Saves the World on Last.fm.
Vicious Vicious
From Minneapolis
First show since since March 31, 2007 • First Varsity show since December 31, 2006 • Seventh 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.
