Description

Green/Blue play their first show since the lockdown on our patio along with Scrunchies and Products! What a show! When asked to describe the sound of Green Blue, Minneapolis based musician Annie Sparrows formerly of the Soviettes and Awesome Snakes laughed and said, “Our friend came up to me after a show and he said ‘Do you like Belle and Sebastian?’ and I was like--I don’t really listen to them but I know who they are so ...maybe? Then he goes, ‘I love Belle and Sebastian and you guys are the Belle and Sebastian of psych rock.’” The Belle and Sebastian reference was in describing the vocal harmonies shared between Jim Blaha formerly of the Blind Shake and herself. On a more serious note, she described Green Blue as post punk or melodic college rock. Though they just played their first gig in April at the Moon Palace in Minneapolis each member a veteran of the Minneapolis music scene. In fact, Green Blue can and has been described as a Minneapolis “supergroup” made up of Jim Blaha of Blind Shake, Hideo Takahashi of the Birthday Suits, and Daniel J Henry also of the Soviettes and Awesome Snakes. Scrunchies is a Minneapolis-based rock band. Their debut album, Stunner, is "filled with catchy hooks and relentless riffs, anthems that worm their way deep into your head, to be shouted loud and often. This is the release of emotions that has no time for sympathy... Scrunchies are here to rip and destroy." - Post-Trash Products is a rock band from Minneapolis/St. Paul. Since forming in early 2018, Jo, Kon, Al + Jack have been making tightly-wound guitar music that dribbles and dunks - equal parts impressionistic snark and political bark. They ride tension and release through alleyways, superstore aisles, and art-gallery storage units. Products’ debut LP, Pink Puma, was released in 2020.
