Aaron Freeman (formerly Gene Ween)
An Evening with Aaron Freeman. Aaron performs an equal mix of Ween favorites and songs from his new solo album, Marvelous Clouds. A splendid evening, guaranteed!’
Aaron (former front man for Ween) is embarking on his first-ever tour as ‘Aaron Freeman’, performing his “amazing” (SPIN) solo record, 'Marvelous Clouds' (Partisan Records) in its entirety, as well as favorites from the Ween catalog.
Marvelous Clouds, produced by Ben Vaughn (Ween’s Twelve Golden Country Greats) is a collection of 13 heartfelt interpretations of songs written by 20th century poet/songwriter, Rod McKuen. The Wall Street Journal says 'Marvelous Clouds' is "performed with charm and reverence", while Rolling Stone calls it Freeman's "most straight-faced and emotional endeavor to date.
Cass McCombs
Mr. Cass McCombs is no run of the mill singer/songwriter. Imagine the quirky pop of Robyn Hitchcock crossed with the swoonsome elegance of Rufus Wainwright and laced with the British melancholia of Morrissey, but then drench it all in cavernous cathedral reverb a la Neko Case or My Morning Jacket. Sound good to you? He's sure got quite a knack for crafting seemingly straightforward songs that your ears will like, but he's got a few tricks up his sleeve to boot. Pitchfork calls Cass McCombs one of indie rock's most enigmatic figures.
