Live Music with Joe Bartell, A Sunken Ship Irony, and Lucas Kurmis

  • Bookstore 1228 2nd st NE Minneapolis, MN Hennepin (map)

Mainly described as "weird," Lucas Kurmis is a singer songwriter from Minneapolis Minnesota. Lucas' music ranges from folk-punk, to indie rock, to spoken word, to noise-rock. Lucas' focus is often on guitar, as he's played since his teens, but he uses strings, drums, and a toy casio keyboard in his own style.

Lucas is currently releasing a visual album song by song on youtube, bandcamp, and spotify. The album is called Another Time/Life/Universe and focuses on grays of fiction/nonfiction and missed connections.

A Sunken Ship Irony has been performing across the Midwest for almost two decades, creating an emotionally charged blend of indie and folk rock. Their song “Island of Misfit Toys” was featured in the 2009 film Friends with Benefits.

Joe Bartel is an internationally beloved folk musician. With swift and direct lyricism and songwriting that can’t be boxed neatly by genre, Joe and their band the Vandalia Cretins are one of the most handsome acts in the Twin Cities DIY scene. Their new EP 'Anhedonia' is available now!!
