Jeremy Messersmith & Andy Thompson @ The Cake Shop

As mentioned in the previous post those who gathered in the warmth of The Cake Shop's living room were treated to one of the two intimate sit down sets by Mr. Jeremy Messersmith and well known local multi-instrumentalist Andy Thompson. These fellas are working together on an album concerning the themes of murder and death. Without giving to much away there I wanted to share a couple of the superbly done (in my opinion) covers played by this duo last night. You know the songs but you have not heard them in this fashion before. Special thanks again to Cake In 15 for hosting.

The Cake Shop

Plenty of people in South Minneapolis care enough about the local music & arts scene to keep it alive and thriving but this post is about two people in particular. Without disclosing their location outright I'll just say if you're into local acoustic music there are opportunities to indulge your addiction. Tonight we were treated to a couple of sets of Murder and Death from Jeremy Messersmith and his homeboy Andy Thompson. Those who were there for either of the two sets can testify that it was a grand evening of music featuring beautiful acoustics. If you're interested in seeing a tastefully stripped down line-up of The Pines on February 21st please contact Cake In 15 to secure your seats. Tickets are limited and both shows will go fast so whether you'd like to attend the 4PM or 7PM show I'd suggest acting quickly. For more info please visit Cake In 15.
