Join Pioneer 90.1 for a free show from Twin Cities band The4ontheFloor, Friday (6/28) 9-10:30PM at the Black Cat Sports Bar and Grill in Thief River Falls.

The 4onthefloor’s new album, Spirit Of Minneapolis, evokes the spirit of American rebellion. That same pioneering spirit brought us everything from modern aviation to rock & roll. Harnessing that spirit, the band is breaking down modern music’s barriers to basic musical traditions. The ageless sound of rock & roll isn’t what it used to be, but the rumble of stomping feet emanating from Minneapolis is an omen of great things on the horizon!

• The 4onthefloor named Vita.MN’s Best New Band 2011
• The 4onthefloor Hit #6 on Billboard’s Uncharted
• The 4onthefloor’s “Workin Man Zombie” featured on ABC’s Nashville

This event is made possible by the Minnesota Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund.
