L'Resorts

Minneapolis Indie Rock act Bad Bad Hats brings their new record "Lightening Round" on tour. Newly minted Milwaukee indie act L'Resorts opens. http://www.badbadhats.com/ https://lresorts.bandcamp.com/ Bad Bad Hats is an indie rock band from Minneapolis, Minnesota. The band consists of Kerry Alexander, Chris Hoge, and Connor Davison. Named for a trouble-making character from the Madeline children’s books, Bad Bad Hats is defined by a balance of sweet and sour. Their music honors classic pop songwriting, with nods to nineties rock simplicity and pop-punk frivolity. Through it all, Alexander’s unflinchingly sincere lyrics cut to the emotional heart of things. Alexander and Hoge met while attending Macalester College in Saint Paul, Minnesota. In 2012, they formed Bad Bad Hats with friend and bassist Noah Boswell, and began performing around the Twin Cities. That same year, they were signed by Minneapolis label Afternoon Records. Their 2015 debut album Psychic Reader caught the attention of outlets including The New Yorker, NPR, Pitchfork, and Paste. Since the release of Psychic Reader, Bad Bad Hats has toured the U.S. extensively, supporting artists including Margaret Glaspy, Hippo Campus, and Third Eye Blind. L'Resorts is the product of a once believed one-time collaboration from Kircher (known for indie-rock band Jaill) and Cannon (from Milwaukee Americana band). It is now a seven-piece group that includes members from both the bands. Each taking influence from each other to make something truly unique. Vincent Kircher's raspy vocals pairs perfectly with Martha Cannon's unique voice. This creates a sound thats reminiscent of Edward Sharp and the Magnetic Zero's.
