DESCRIPTION:EVENT DETAILS \n\n    RSVP ON FACEBOOK\n  \n\n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\nThe Hook and Ladder Theater \n\n\nDoors 7:00pm :: Music 7:30pm :: 21+\n\n\nReserved Seat: $17 Box-Office / $19.51 Online \n\n\nBOX-OFFICE Tickets Are Available at The Hook & Ladder Box Office or The Zen Arcade (Open During Hours of Operation.)

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. A supergroup made of celebrated Twin Cities musicians\, including Pat O’Keefe\, Sarah Larsson\, Josh Rosard\, Daniel Lentz\, and Anthony Afful; Di Bayke has collectively studied with master-artists from klezmer tradition\, including Lisa Gutkin of The Klezmatics\, Ethel Raim of The Pennywhistlers\, and Michael Alpert of Brave Old World. 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.

DESCRIPTION:EVENT DETAILS \n\n    RSVP ON FACEBOOK\n  \n\n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\nThe Zen Arcade Stage at The Hook and Ladder\n\nDoors 7:00pm :: Music 7:30pm :: 21+\nGA: $11 ADV (Box-Office) / $13.71 ADV (Online) / $16 DOOR\n\nBOX-OFFICE Tickets Are Available in The Zen Arcade During Hours of Operation.For More Information visit www.ZenArcadeTHC.comNO REFUNDS \n		\n					\n\n	\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\n EVENT DESCRIPTION \n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\nBarking at Ghosts Release Show \nw/ The Long Honeymoon & The Famous Volcanoes  \n— \nBarking at Ghosts is a Minneapolis-based power-pop trio specializing in tightly crafted original songs\, hooky riffs and melodic vocal harmonies. Their music reflects a shared passion for classic rock and pop\, psychedelia\, post punk and rockabilly. Debut LP Hearing Horns arrives in April 2025 and features ten original songs that range from punky power-pop to folky jangle and achingly pretty melancholy. \nGuitarist Johnny Wilson (Go Buttons\, Evil Sulu) is a native North Carolinian and has fronted bands in NC\, St. Louis and Minneapolis. Drummer Chris Hansen (Pioneer Son\, Clockwork) is a native Minnesotan and gigged for years around the state before forming the band Hearing Horns in 2013 with Johnny and bassist John Hile. In late 2023\, Montana transplant and veteran bassist Rob McClain (Tim Montana & the Shrednecks\, Jeremy Scared)\, met Chris by happenstance at Chris’ optical shop. 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.

Front man\, Clay Rose was raised between an outlaw\, truck-driving father in the mountains of Colorado and a country song-writing mama in the sticks outside of Nashville\, Tennessee. Clay’s penchant for open roads and trouble making are the backbone of the Gas Pops’ sound. The rest of the band consists of Don Ambory\, Scott Coulter\, “Bad” Brad Morse\, and Kevin Matthews who all come equipped with music degrees from Chicago\, Boston\, Jacksonville\, and Denver\, respectively. They each add flavors of their own background and heritage\, further diversifying the band’s signature sound.—-Clarence Tilton\, the Omaha-based band known for its sharp storytelling and harmonies to match announces the release of their latest album\, Queen of the Brawl. The record features collaborations with country icon Marty Stuart and Presley Tucker (bandmate and daughter of the legendary Tanya Tucker). It weaves together personal history\, road-worn experiences\, and a love of place into a collection of songs that “blends alt-country grit\, rich\, melodic hooks\, and evocative.” (The Country Note)—-Late-blooming Minnesota singer-songwriter Becky Kapell writes gritty\, no-nonsense songs that come from the crossroads of old-time rock and roll and country. Always walking the line between mischief and heartache\, her music doesn’t shy away from life’s truths and her own shortcomings\, and with over 50 years of life’s ups and downs\, she has plenty of material to draw from. Working with her all-star band The Fat 6\, Kapell has quickly become a fixture in the Twin Cities music scene\, sharing the stage with some of Americana’s biggest acts like Southern Culture on the Skids\, Rosie Flores\, Wayne Hancock and The Cactus Blossoms. Becky released her third album In It to Win It in 2022 which was recorded during the pandemic with partner and bandmate Paul Bergen. The album made several year-end favorite lists and mixes the raw grooves of Lucinda Williams\, the haunting sounds of Emmylou and the classic rock and roll feel of Nick Lowe.

The popular rock/garage group has been on semi-hiatus since member Jim McGuinn moved to Philadelphia for a job at WXPN-FM in 2022. Named after a phrase used in St. Paul when you meet someone new and discover a surprise connection – a mutual friend\, a past lover\, bandmate or neighbor – Saint Small refers to the way everyone and everything seems to be connected. The band surfs between songs that are serious\, and songs that will seriously make you laugh or smile (or cry\, laughing). \n \n\n \n\nThe best of classic guitar-driven rock in one small package\, Little Man (Chris Perricelli) has been described as a cross between George Harrison\, David Bowie\, T. Rex\, and Jack White\, with a familiar rock sound that is somehow all his own while being heavily inspired by spiritual and Zen themes. The Little Man live rock show is not to be missed.  Exuding with passion and a rock-star quality that pulls you into a performance with a classic rock\, psychedelic and garage rock feel that is uniquely their own.  \n \n\nThe unique fuzzpop sound of The Mood Swings developed when guitarist/songwriter Ashley Ackerson joined forces with kindred spirit Sallie Watson in the early 2000s and started cutting some 4-track demos. A little punk here\, a little 60s garage there\, a lot of attitude everywhere – The Mood Swings sound melded all these ingredients into hard hitting tunes prickly with pop hooks\, sharp-witted lyrics and searing guitars. The Mood Swings released three ace albums\, all produced by the late\, great Ed Ackerson. These albums featured catchy tunes with an edge and a bit of psychedelic mayhem thrown in.

Simpson’s raspy\, dynamic voice is larger than life — but not as large as her uncontainable energy that radiates from the stage.” – Colleen Cowie (Minneapolis Public Radio) \n—\nMae Simpson is known for their high energy and stage presence that speaks for itself. Tight horn and Rhythm section set the tone\, immediately pulling fans to  engage. The band includes Jorgen Wadkins on guitar\,  David Kellerman on bass\, drummer and background vocalist Aaron Silverstein\, and trumpeter Paul Pederson. In 2023 they released Chandelier & Bloom.\n \nFeed the Dog is an eclectic and action-packed\, experimental jam-grass act. The midwest based 4-piece masterfully blends soul-pleasing songwriting rich in imagery and storytelling with a genre bending\, shake-your-hips\, instrumental flair. Their high energy performances are driven by the unique and progressive approach of each player: imaginative melodies with graceful ambiance skillfully crafted on the violin\, tireless beats both dynamic and soulful confidently assembled on the drums\, driving low end with finesse and intention forged on the bass guitar\, and unique approach to playing the acoustic guitar blending fast picking bluegrass runs with the strength of blues and rock to evoke an emotional contrast between melancholy and hopeful.\n \n\nJoin us where every night is ladies’ night and rock & roll reigns! Based in Minneapolis\, Rebel Queens is a collective band of women featuring top musicians performing music influenced by the gritty rebel spirit of Joan Jett and the electric energy of vintage rock ‘n’ roll. The band’s set list offers something familiar and something new with dynamic takes on classic tracks alongside original compositions that showcase the band’s unique style and talent. From the wailing guitars to the powerhouse vocals and fun-loving stage presence\, Rebel Queens is proof that rock & roll is not only surviving\, but thriving with the bands and fans that carry it forward.\n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\nThank you to our sponsors\, partners\, & neighbors: \n\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 2025 season for our guests.
