Americana music with Noah Lekas of American Restless.
This week I talk with Noah Lekas, who is originally from Racine, WI. He's coming back to Milwaukee for a hometown show with his group, American Restless and Silent Comedy. Milwaukee's own band Alley Eyes will be opening up the show at Shank Hall on May 12th. Tickets will be going sale soon on Shank Hall's website. Tickets on sale starting December 22nd. 3 great bands for $12.oo No Ticket Master fees, just a great price that goes to the bands directly.
Silent Comedy:
Brothers Joshua and Jeremiah Zimmerman and their band The Silent Comedy know trouble. Facing that trouble head on permeates their work. Rough-hewn, expansive American rock & roll with dirt under its nails and whiskey on its breath, the music of The Silent Comedy channels the iron spine of the blues, Honky-Tonk sweat, and punk swagger into a euphoric declaration that when trouble rears its worrisome head it's time to crack knuckles, lock arms, and lift our voices high.
The brothers spent their formative years traveling the world with missionary parents before settling in California. In search of catharsis, the teens found solace in songwriting and stage lights. The young band proved capable of raucous shows and word spread. Years of touring followed, performing with Dave Matthews Band, Queens of the Stone Age, Mumford and Sons, Arctic Monkeys, and Vampire Weekend, and festival plays at Bonnaroo, Wakarusa, Under The Big Sky, Summer Meltdown and more.
Alley Eyes:
Alley Eyes is a Milwaukee based garage rock band, where last call love songs meet indifferent odes to modernity, where seedy guitar riffs meet haunting synth lines, where desert psychedelic rock meets John Carpenter themes...
Alley Eyes has played everywhere from the Uline Stage at Summerfest '22 to a sold out Back Room at Colectivo, & all throughout the Wisconsin. We're always looking to expand our presence!
