February 2012 – February 2013
When he’s not writing Good Life songs or touring under his own name, Tim Kasher still plays in Cursive – the band that made him famous long ago. Or was it him who made the band famous? Wait, does anyone even know who the hell Tim Kasher is?
For this Chicago stop, Tim’s playing with Cursive in promotion of their 7th studio album, I am Gemini.
Openers = Cymbals Eat Guitars, Conduits
↑ NEW Cursive | OLD Cursive ↓
A folk band from Raleigh, North Carolina visits Lincoln Hall to promote their third album The Clearing.
Opener = Dry the River
↑ NEW Bowerbirds | OLD Bowerbirds ↓
You may know her from her parts in Dum Dum Girls, Chrystal Stilts, or The Vivian Girls – but I like her best as herself, Frankie Rose (at least I think that’s her real name). A friend at work turned me on to her and I’ve never been to Township, so I’m excited to check it out.
Opener = Dive
He is the voice of Archer. He has/had(?) a show on Comedy Central called Jon Benjamin has a Van. He was the voice of the can of vegetables in Wet Hot American Summer. AND he’s coming to Schuba’s.

Compliments of their intensely descriptive facebook page: “Margot [& the Nuclear So and So's] is a rock band from Chicago and Indianapolis.” They even went so far as to add, “They make recorded music and play shows.” They’re heading on tour to promote their fourth-ish* full-length, which comes out tomorrow.
