Indiana's Houndmouth will be stopping by Minneapolis on Halloween at the Fine Line Music Café. Typically, these Halloween shows are great, as half the fun is also watching the audience with their various costumes. I remember one year I saw 20 belly dancers costumes (including some men!) at the Beats Antique's Halloween show (their lead singer is a belly dancer). Perhaps we will see some sexy McGruff the Crime Dog or sexy Cicada costumes...

Cicada Rhythm will open the show. They are touring in support of their self-titled album (out October 30th via Normaltown Records). I am assuming you can pick up a copy on this tour.

10/24-10/25 - Chiaha Festival 2015

Mallman recently announced his upcoming album:

My dear fans and friends, I'm excited to announce today the title of my next album: "The End is Not The End" - I can assure you nothing more than a master work has been created. To me, music is a visceral, ethereal, raucous bloodletting of emotion and split nerves, and it's taken longer than any record I've ever made (3 years) to perfect it with sound. ***Just as Sweet: After toiling amid the ruins of the music business realm these past months, I've decided to take the leap of faith and partake in the potluck dinner known as Kickstarter. (Expect a launch in the coming weeks.) Not only will you be able to pre-order the digital or hard copy of "The End is Not The End", but you'll be able to get T-shirts, a 4 CD out-takes boxed set, a 4 t-shirt Kickstarter exclusive, private concerts, and most exciting - my collection of custom studded/spray painted jackets from points in my career all the way from Marathon 3 to Parasite Eyes. More to come, my freaks and friendlies!!!! much love - MALL<MAN
