Target Free Thursday Nights Summer Edition | June 4: Aviette | June 18: Beatrix*JAR

Merging music and sculpture, local bands venture out of the club for performances inside and around artist James Turrell's meditative Skyspace chamber in the greenspace on the west side of the Walker. From tango to zydeco, electro to pop, these are exclusive, one-night-only sets from some of the area's hottest music-makers.

In conjunction with the Sky Pesher performance each of the performers is generously offering a free song to download and enjoy. 

June 4: Aviette | 8:30 pm
Minneapolis-based indie popsters Holly Muñoz, Justin Hartke, and Kyle Larson as Aviette weave catchy hooks inspired by the likes of the Cure and Aimee Mann.

June 18: Beatrix*JAR | 8:30 pm
Bianca Pettis (Beatrix) and Jacob Aaron Roske (JAR) create fuzzy sound collages with glitch beatboxes, rewired toys, circuit-bent keyboards, and other mutant sound machines.

Events continue in July and August. Watch for details to be posted here on Mandrágora Tango Orchestra (July 2), Machinery Hill (July 23), and Solid Gold (August 27).
