SUMMARY:TELEPORT 004 - An Evening of Psychedelic Chillout Music: Ancient Fruit\, Squig\, Kitten Candy
DESCRIPTION:EVENT DETAILS \n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\nThe Zen Arcade Stageat The Hook and Ladder’s Mission Room \n\nDoors 8:30pm :: Music 9pm :: 21+\n$10 Box-Office /  $12.16 Online / $15 Door\n\n		\n					\n\n	\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\n EVENT DESCRIPTION \n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\nTELEPORT 004 – An Evening of Psychedelic Chillout Music: Ancient Fruit\, Squig\, Kitten Candy\n— \nThis installment of Teleport differs from the previous ones in a few ways. For one\, Teleport 004 will feature ambient and downtempo music. I have long thought that a showcase of psybient and psy chillout music would be very worthwhile. There is so much variety within this heading and so much good music that only people in psytrance world seem to know about. The music programming has departed slightly from this initial picture\, all in good ways. The entire evening will feature live performance. The artists—Kitten Candy\, Squig\, and Ancient Fruit—are all dedicated\, multitalented\, experimental artists who will bring a variety and progression that is ideal for this emerging concept. \nThe event will be in Zen Arcade at the Hook and Ladder Theater\, which is also new for Teleport. The arrangement and deco plan are being worked out (as I am still pretty unfamiliar with that space)\, as is the visual programming by Kid Cuisine (who created the beautifully tailored flyer image for this unique installment). The aim is to make the Zen Arcade feel like a chill space at a music festival—relaxing\, cozy\, and wildly engaging. \n— \nBOX-OFFICE Tickets Are Available in The Zen Arcade During Hours of Operation.

With influences ranging from Fats Domino and the Preservation Hall Jazz Band to Aretha Franklin and Tom Waits\, the band is converting audiences one show at a time\, from Vancouver to Miami and across Europe.\n \nMuch like the music\, the story spurns era\, expectation\, and classification. The often unbelievable\, sometimes harrowing\, and wholly inspiring journey of Davina Sowers gave birth to her eponymous band Davina and The Vagabonds in 2004. As the tale goes\, she grew up in the economically depressed Allegheny town of Altoona\, PA\, which she now describes as “awesome in the industrial era\, but horrible for high school.” She was adopted by her much older stepfather when he was in his 80s; he passed away when she was just 13. Through him and his Edison phonograph\, she first heard The Ink Spots\, Sidney Bechet\, Louis Armstrong and Louis Prima\, Sister Rosetta Tharpe\, and many others. “Great man. He was my angel and still is\,” she says.\n \nOn her own\, she vividly recalls hours in front of the record player where she religiously spun Led Zeppelin\, Black Sabbath\, and Simon and Garfunkel records belonging to her folk singer mom.\n \nTo this day\, Davina still refers to music as “my first and eternal love.” Despite early dalliances with classical piano and guitar\, she developed a heavy drug habit in high school\, which morphed into heroin dependency\, left her homeless\, sent her in and out of jail\, and brought on all manner of trouble. Kicking dope on the streets\, she “got clean\, started the band\, and worked [her] ass off every day since.”\n \nDavina and the Vagabonds shine every time they play. To date\, they’ve performed in forty-five states\, twelve European countries\, and two Canadian provinces. Not to mention\, they’ve earned feverish acclaim from the Chicago Tribune\, NPR\, and more in addition to performing on BBC’s international favorite late-night program Later… With Jools Holland and appearing on PBS’s Bluegrass Underground.\n—\n“Davina and the Vagabonds combat heartache with sugar and sass.”  DOWNBEAT MAGAZINE \n\n \n\nThank you to our sponsors\, partners\, & neighbors: \nSummit Brewing • DuNord Social Spirits • RKR Ganja Beverages • Nobool Presents • KFAI 90.3FM • Mpls.St.Paul Magazine • The Zen Arcade • Longfellow Rising • Lake Street Council • Minnesota State Arts Board • Moon Palace Books • Arbeiter Brewing\n\n \nThe Award-Winning* Under the Canopy series at The Hook & Ladder Theater returns with its uniquely seasonal urban footprint to the Longfellow neighborhood of South Minneapolis in 2025. *Voted Best in MN 2021 by Star Tribune readers.\n \nThe Hook has committed to having a food truck Under the Canopy throughout the 2024 season for our guests.

Their last five releases hit the Top 50 on iTunes Reggae\, with Home Brew peaking at #2 behind Bob Marley’s Legend. In May 2025\, they’re set to release their most anticipated album yet. A collection they believe is their best work to date.—The Prizefighters Formed in 2006 in Minneapolis\, Minnesota\, The Prizefighters are known for their authentic ska\, rocksteady\, and reggae sound. The band features Aaron Porter (vocals/guitar)\, Jordan Porter (bass/vocals)\, Eric Whalen (drums)\, Courtney Klos (saxophone/vocals)\, Tony Beaderstadt (trombone)\, Todd Baer (trumpet)\, and Whitney Olson (keyboards). The Prizefighters have earned recognition for their dynamic live shows and for backing legendary Jamaican artists such as Derrick Morgan\, Stranger Cole & Patsy Todd\, Roy Panton & Yvonne Harrison\, and Charlie Organaire. They continue to be a powerful force in the ska and reggae scene.—Jon Wayne\, the lead vocalist and guitarist of Jon Wayne & The Pain\, has carved out a name for himself as a solo artist with his unique blend of reggae\, rock\, and dub. Hailing from Minneapolis\, Jon’s sound is deeply rooted in soulful reggae rhythms\, with elements of rock and electronic influences that make his music stand out. Known for his powerful live performances and emotive songwriting\, Jon Wayne has built a strong following across the Midwest and beyond. His discography includes albums like Follow Through and a string of singles that showcase his evolution as a solo artist.

Their emotionally charged\, high energy performances are not to be missed.  \nDavey has also toured extensively as a solo artist and as keyboardist for rock hall of famer Eric Burdon. In addition\, he has toured as a member of the San Francisco rock band The Stone Foxes.  \n“Scrappy string-based freak-folk\, featuring songs like ‘Meat Raffle Mambo\,’ ‘Wisconsin Saturday Nights’ and ‘Jesus Shaves’ that both revere and good-naturedly poke fun at state culture — [The Driftless Revelers] may remind listeners of Lou and Peter Berryman or even the old Free Hot Lunch! band.” –Isthmus Magazine\, Madison\, WI. \n​”It’s a little ‘out there’: Driftless Revelers release American Fork Standards –Volume One Magazine\, Eau Claire \n“Jack Black ran so these guys could stumble” — Nick\, Announcer at Sol Grass Music Festival 2024 \nThe Driftless Revelers formed in the second spring of the first global pandemic of the 21st century\, with one ear turned toward the shellac platters and Victrola virtuosos of the early to mid 20th century\, and the other ear glued to the soundscapes of the 1960’s & 1970’s American freak-folk scene. \nSince their debut tour in 2021\, the band has billed with Grammy winning bluegrass legends like Tim O’Brien & the Gibson Brothers\, toured extensively throughout the Upper Midwest performing with other amazing artists like Big Richard\, Willy Tea Taylor\, and had breakout performances at several festivals and events (Sol Grass Music Festival\,  Mile of Music in Appleton\, WI. featured in Rolling Stone Magazine). \nThese Eau Claire\, Wisconsin based weirdos have earned a cult following of devoted fans from Minnesota to Michigan who appreciate their irreverent\, highly original\, and sometimes slightly psychedelic interpretation of American roots music with a Midwest twist. Their live show banter and thoroughly entertaining sets have earned them comparisons to Ween\,  Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show\, They Might be Giants\, Tenacious D\, Cheech & Chong\, and the Holy Modal Rounders. Their debut record\, American Fork Standards (2022)\, was well received by their family members\, and a few other people who said nice things about it. Their most recent record\, Live at the Slowpoke Lounge & Cabaret (2024) captures the band’s deadpan comedy and musical chops in a lounge environment that demands a proper listen in a leisure suit with a scotch & Pall Mall.

Local indie pop band KYM and the Kick invites you to celebrate the release of their energetic freshman album “The Gift of Feeling.”  This ten-track album is the band’s ode to feeling deeply in a culture that suppresses our feelings at every opportunity. Supported by Alonzo and Poison Ivy and the People\, this night is for lovers of queer pop and art as resistance! \n \nKYM and the Kick is a cheeky\, queer indie pop band from the Twin Cities\, MN. After releasing their EP ‘Not 4 U’ in 2020 under the band’s solo name\, KYM and the Kick step into their new era with equally danceable indie pop tracks. KYM’s dreamy vocals and layered harmonies are well-complemented by their band’s funky bass lines\, dynamic drum fills\, and 80s synth pop melodies. \n \nAlonzo is 3 friends who like to have fun. Their sounds range from bossa nova\, easy listening to disco to incidental television music. They enjoy being the wallpaper for any good-time event. From a beginner to an advanced listener\, Alonzo has something for everyone.\n \nPoison Ivy And The People is a five piece theatrical rock band based in Minneapolis\, MN\, and fronted by Ivy (aka Charleigh Wolf). Themes of mental illness\, profound existentialism\, big questions about the world\, and social change give listeners an inside view into Ivy’s abstract inner monologue. Ivy’s extensive background in theatre lends itself to highly dramatic performances that captivate audiences and leave them thoroughly entertained.

A masterful Grammy Award-winning violinist\, singer/songwriter\, actor\, and composer\, Lisa has an uncanny way of taking those audiences with her wherever she goes.\n—\nRecognized for her work as violinist and vocalist for the ground breaking Jewish Roots band The Klezmatics and as fiddler for the “Downtown” Celtic band Whirligig\, Lisa is also known for her scoring\, performance\, and music direction in the two time Tony award-winning play\, Indecent. She had an on-screen cameo and compositions featured in Sex and the City; has performed in Sting’s Broadway musical The Last Ship; and her song Gonna Get Through This World – with words by Woody Guthrie – was hailed by Pete Seeger as “a piece of genius”. Lisa’s playing and stories are fun and poignant\, and her voice has been praised by the LA Times as “hauntingly emotional.”   —\nDi Bayke Klezmer Band (backing band for Lisa Gutkin) plays the energetic party music of Eastern European Jewish tradition.

Di Bayke’s adventurous takes on beloved Klezmer and Yiddish sounds encourage audiences to get on their feet and explore family stories of journey\, roots\, and home. Bayke is Yiddish for “tall tale”\, and is an acronym for Backyard Klezmer Ensemble\, which is where the band got started: playing outside during the COVID pandemic. (say: “Dee Bye-keh”)\n—\nAhmed Yusuf & Araa Ensemble is the project of Minneapolis-based author and educator Ahmed Ismail Yusuf. Committed to revitalizing the Somali musical genre of Qaraami\, Araa Ensemble brings together star vocalists and instrumentalists from the Midwestern Somali diaspora.

Barking at Ghosts was born. \nAll three members share a background in the fine and applied arts. Johnny works by day as a freelance graphic designer after a long career designing for Best Buy Corporate. After a career in graphic design\, Chris now runs Owl Optical in Minneapolis with his wife Julie. Rob is currently working towards his BFA degree at the University of Minnesota. Before that he worked in film and theater and owned his own company for over twenty years. \nThe Long HoneymoonMinneapolis-based pop-rock band The Long Honeymoon has been filling venues and exciting fans with their high-energy shows\, featuring original songs with rich vocal harmonies\, catchy pop grooves\, and clever arrangements. Its members\, all 20+ year veterans of the Twin Cities music scene\, combine a deep love of classic pop-rock with a modern sound and joyous spirit that’s attracting music lovers of all ages.  \nHaving shared bills while playing in separate bands in the early 2000s\, founding members Lee Zukor (Lee Rude\, Charlie Bucket) and Adam Marshall (The Humbugs\, The Bazillions) reconnected in 2022\, finding instant chemistry through a shared love of artists including Elvis Costello\, The Beautiful South\, Stevie Wonder\, and Teenage Fanclub. Excited by the songs they were writing\, Lee and Adam enlisted Adam’s wife Kristin Marshall (also of The Humbugs and The Bazillions) to help flesh them out. Right away\, the three knew they had something special – they just needed to find the right band. And did they ever! \nBassist Volney Hendrix (Lee Rude\, Charlie Bucket) brings unique and catchy melodies to the band’s rhythm section\, while drummer Dennis Olson (RadioSpares) anchors the band with tight grooves and smart pop sensibilities. Volney and Dennis’ combined experience includes extensive gigging with jazz bands\, cover bands\, hard rock bands\, and pop bands\, and the music The Long Honeymoon plays draws on all of these influences.  \nLead guitarist Mike Senkovich (Atomic Flea\, The Humbugs\, The Bazillions) and keyboard/vocalist Eric Kreidler (Atomic Flea\, Fever Pitch) have been playing catchy\, original pop songs together since the mid 90s. In addition to their “day jobs” in the band\, both are expert singers\, songwriters\, and arrangers\, drawing on a love of power-pop\, soul\, jazz\, and funk that gives The Long Honeymoon a rare sophistication.  \nWith a supergroup vibe and two years of playing shows to full houses under their belts\, The Long Honeymoon is poised to take it to the next level\, with an album in the works and more gigs on the horizon.  \nThe Famous Volcanoes  For 20 years Famous Volcanoes has been spewing musical lava of full on rock\, rootsy Americana\, multi-layered pure pop and traditional bluegrass.  The Volcanoes proudly wear their influences on their ragged shirtsleeves putting a Midwestern spin on a Crazy Horse meets quirk pop sound.  With three full length recordings (and another on the way) this five piece Minneapolis band have performed on stages from regional dive bars to Hollywood hotspots to back yard BBQ’s.
