Hotelcaster CD Release + Gramma's Boyfriend + DJ Set by Gramma's Boyfriends
Hotelecaster:
A rock music group formed in Minneapolis in 2013 comprised of vocalist/guitarist Kevin Scott (Warehouse Eyes), guitarist Charlie Ward (Dear Data, Clustercuss), bassist Marc Zazzaro (Grammar), and drummer Stephen Lindquist (We Are The Willows, Red Fox Grey Fox).
Growing up playing music together in Saint Paul, Scott and Ward began to form their ideas about music after being exposed to a wide range of Twin Cities groups such as Halloween, Alaska; Malachi Constant; Happy Apple; and Heiruspecs.
Scott's quirky pop melodies and affinity for groove counter Ward's spastic and anxious guitar parts to give Hotelecaster a compelling personality. This dynamic is especially evident in their live shows, with noisy expanses of chaos and cacophony giving way to tense and delicate interludes that seem ready to fall apart at any moment.
Their debut recording, Farther Fewer EP, as well as a digital single, Preset 3, will be available in February 2015.
Gramma's Boyfriend:
When you first read the name Gramma's Boyfriend, it brings an uncomfortable, funny feeling. But when you first hear Gramma's Boyfriend, the feeling becomes something new, slightly terrifying, and fun. The five members include front woman Haley Bonar, Jeremy Ylvisaker (Cloak Ox, Andrew Bird), Mark Erickson (Cloak Ox), Luke Anderson (Rogue Valley), and Jacob Hanson (Actual Wolf, Haley Bonar, All Tomorrow's Petty), who join forces to create the psychadelic dance punk that is guaranteed to make you move. Think Blondie, Devo, and Suburban Lawns meet Dead Kennedys. But don't think too much. Gramma's Boyfriend certainly doesn't. And that is the whole point.
