KOHWI / FTHRSN – Two Ann Arbor’s finest coming to show us how it’s done. CAJUN STYLE
I’ve listened to a ton of Kohwi ever since I stumbled upon them via the blogsophere in early 2011. Plus, I had the pleasure seeing Fthrsn play at The Gravel Pit in A2 last year. Both projects are amazing and I’m super excited to see them play our fair city tonight. The Milhouse does it right. See ya in the pit.

What could be more special than an evening with love songs from the mountain tops and a finely-crafted Poet Stout? Nothing. It’s perfect.
So come on down and watch some cheerful boys play some sad songs! There may even be some R. kelly, if you’re lucky…

First, MINUTES will be throwing a record release party with plaid-shirted, baseball cap-donning Aaron Young and His Nightjars and the freshh-faced Flatbeard at the Strutt. Afterword, stick around and boogie down with DJ Special G…
