EVENT DESCRIPTION
Dr. Simon R. Calder + Full Band
“HUM” Record Release Party
with Butter Boys, The Knotties, & Poison Ivy
Dr. Simon R. Calder (full band) releases HUM
Drummer Ben Johnston (self-evident, Phantom Fields, Lovely Dark), bassist Kenneth Garnier (Casual Confusion) and multi-instrumentalist / producer Tyler Coenen unite with the VFW’s Simon Calder to perform Simon’s new record HUM, celebrating its release with support from Butter Boys, the Knotties, and Poison Ivy.
HUM is the musical counterpart to Dr. Simon R. Calder’s forthcoming book, Her Hummingbird Heart; together Her Hummingbird Heart and HUM reconsider what it means to live wholeheartedly, informed by Simon’s doctoral research and hundreds of interviews conducted with twin cities musicians on his TV show “Back to the City: MPLS Music Conversation.”
Butter Boys are a rock band based in Minneapolis. Bright and boisterous. Never bashful. Never timid. Upbeat rhythms, clamoring guitars, and memorable melodies. More evocative than provocative. More spirited than angry. Bratty, rebellious, and always youthful.
The Knotties are a heavy-hitting rock and roll 4-piece, out here turning heads.
