“Starting with duo Spooky Ghost (Jesse Pedersen and Jordan)... although for their live setup, they had a full backing band. They spent most of the time in near darkness with a party light. The band seemed really new, so far, only the song "Brooklyn Girls" is available on their Bandcamp.”
$10 advance, $13 at the door.
Additional details below:
Come out to the 7th St. Entry to celebrate the release of The Horizon Lines EP. Every person in the club will get THE NEW EP FOR FREE! We will also be joined by our friends: Early Eyes, Newstrange, and Spooky Ghost! Tickets are $10 presale and $13 at the door. Shoot me (Colin) a message and I will hand deliver you a hard copy ticket. This event is 18+ (Sorry minors, you can get in if you have a parent with you!) Tell your friends, it should be a fun one. See you at the rock show!

CLAPS
at 7th Street Entry
Thursday, 12/29/16, 8pm ($6)
first-avenue.com
Join local Minneapolis synthy three-piece Claps (Patrick, Jed, and Sara) as they close out the year at this show on December 29th. The band has a deep love for Depeche Mode, OMD and Joy Division (so no doubt they were probably at the Peter Hook show earlier this year).
We previously wrote about Claps in 2011 and described them as forming in 2009 and featured two synth players. Their debut album Wreck is out now.
Show up early to check out Slumberland Records’ Real Numbers as they play some songs from their album Wordless Wonder, which came out earlier in October.
Also on the bill are Posh Lost (formerly called Gloss) and Zina. Additional details below:

finelinemusic.com
The Los Angeles-based Grammy winning trio King (Paris and Amber Strother, and Anita Bias) is celebrating New Year at the Fine Line Music Café in Minneapolis this December 31st. This should be a special show, as we previously caught the group at the Dakota Jazz Club in October and noted that they had a ton of friends and family in attendance, showing support and love for the singers. If Prince was alive, he would also be at this show.
Special guests tiny deaths, K.Raydio, and DJ Willie Shu to open.
