The Lone Bellow
From Brooklyn, New York
First Twin Cities show since since October 29, 2013 • First Varsity show
From last.fm:
The Lone Bellow - A biography Zach Williams, the Lone Bellow’s lead singer and principal songwriter, can pinpoint just about exactly when the Brooklyn-based group serendipitously willed itself into being. It was around 9 a.m. one morning in 2010, at Dizzy’s Diner in Park Slope, Brooklyn, where the Lone Bellows guitarist and Williams’ old friend Brian Elmquist was working a shift. Williams, up to then performing as a solo artist, needed a place to try out some new songs; for a scuffling artist, the diner was as good as any rehearsal space.

The Weeks are an indie rock band originally from Jackson, Mississippi. The band was formed by Cain Barnes, Chaz Lindsay, Cyle Barnes, Damien Bone, and Samuel Williams in March of 2006 when they were between 14 and 16 years old. The band signed to the Esperanza Plantation label, with the debut album, Comeback Cadillac, released in July 2008. The album blended southern rock and alternative. A second album, Rumspringa, followed in 2009. After some lineup changes that left them with a four piece of the Barnes twins, Bone and Williams, the band relocated to Nashville, TN.

From last.fm:
A bio: Cliches abound in your average band biography. And although much positive hyperbole has been heaped upon Skittish in the last 7 years, the best description came early on: “Skittish is Folk Rock, with Thorns.” From double albums of literary infused neo-folk, to the latest EP of crunching and pulsing rock, this has never been more true. Based on the psychological concept of the 5 Stages of Grief that people go through when experiencing massive changes in their lives Read more on Last.fm.
