Special Guests / Opening Acts: 

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.

MAGIC CASTLES

Magic Castles are a band from Minneapolis, Minnesota. The band started as an underground home-recording project by Jason Edmonds featuring some members of Jason's old minimalist/shoegazer band Nymore and Jeremiah Doering (formerly of Valet, Death Ships & others). the line up has changed a few times involving various people who were around at the time. The band's sound is influenced by bands like Velvet Underground, Spacemen 3, & Galaxie 500.

RADIO ON

The only predictable thing about a RADIO ON gig is that you're gonna leave hotter and more bothered than when you arrived. Tough as it may be, the Onion AV Club took a stab at describing their sound:  "...specializing in hook-laden pop that combines the energy of a garage band with a glossy theatricallity that seems to have taken a page from T. Rex."
