Special Guests / Opening Acts: 

KANSER

Kanser are veterans of the underground hip-hop scene, respected nationwide. With a strong do it yourself hustle, Kanser has built a solid career out of frequent live performances and selling product hand to hand. Kanser’s music reflects real inner city experiences while at the same time, bringing a positive outlook and good energy that serve as the formula for dealing with day-to-day problems. Their live show is built on a b-boy base, bouncing back and forth with the DJ, while constantly updating with new school formulas.

LOOKBOOK

Lookbook was formed in mid-2008 by Maggie Morrison (Digitata) and Grant Cutler (Passions, Tomhanks) in Minneapolis. Combining Cutler’s sparkling, synth-laden sounds and sparse guitar with Morrison’s Pat Benatar-meets-Chrissie Hynde vocals, the band garnered rave reviews and an energetic following for a sound that’s at once familiar and unique.

GUARDIANS OF BALANCE

The rap group G.O.B. was formed when two young men with superior mic ability noticed each others talents in a studio production class in high school. Meyer St. Paul Slim Warren and Nick M-13 Muhammad of St. Paul Minnesota, decided to take their solo talents and form a duo. In 1996 the two started doing shows and recording under the name DA C.U.T. Do to certain circumstances the group was forced to part for a brief moment from the year 1997 to the year 2001. During that time M-13 became a member of a Hip Hop collective known as F.O.S.

MIKE 2600

MIKE 2600 is a 15-year veteran DJ, having rocked parties from San Francisco to St. Paul, from Oregon to Osaka. After moving to Minneapolis from St. Louis in 2003, Mike immediately began throwing the "Let's Get Electric" party in First Avenue's V.I.P. room, a monthly excursion into Miami Bass, Southern Bounce, 1980s pop classics, disco, and post-punk.
