An Evening with Gene Ween (solo acoustic show)

Erik Brandt & the Urban Hillbilly Quartet
Pezzettino

7:00 PM / $20 cover / $18 advance / 18 and up

TICKETS ARE STILL AVAILABLE AT THE CLUB FOR TONIGHT'S SHOW. WE'RE SORRY, BUT WE CAN NO LONGER ISSUE REFUNDS FOR TICKETS THAT CAN'T BE USED.

Spend an evening with Gene Ween, best known as the rhythm guitarist and lead singer his experimental alternative rock group, Ween. Don't worry, his solo performances are just as odd and charming as his work with the full band. "Most of our fans seem to be very intelligent people who don't stand out too much, but they're still total freaks. I like that - they're smart and sadistic, which I think is a reflection at us." -Gene Ween

Erik Brandt has been the ringleader of the award-winning eclectic Twin Cities-based Urban Hillbilly Quartet since 1995. On stage, Erik performs mainly original material drawn from the Americana vein. Most of his original tunes can be found on the eight albums he’s recorded with the UHQ and his two solo albums. When choosing covers, he pulls liberally from the catalogs of Bob Dylan, Big Bill Broonzy, Johnny Cash, and other Americana heroes. As a multi-instrumentalist, Erik switches between acoustic guitar, piano and accordion during performances.

Pezzettino, based in Milwaukee, is a blend of indie, folk and hip hop. American Indie describes her sound as "ethereal and haunting, bringing a fantastically different, textural sound to what is decidedly not what you would expect to hear coming out of an accordion."
