The Kissers
The Kissers are American bred, but you’d never know it to hear them. This cover band plays a brand of Celtic rock that will get your fist a shakin’ and feet a stompin’ while you down a few pints. Founded by bassist/vocalist Ken Fitzsimmons, the Kissers unify Irish traditionalism with American roots music and a pinch of British punk. The Madison, Wisconsin based quintet burst onto the scene in 2003. Don't miss even a minute of this music!
9:30 pm - Midnight
Pat McCurdy
Wisconsin's own Pat McCurdy is a musician who hails from Milwaukee and is finding a small but growing cult following across the country. He writes all his own songs, in a variety of styles. One person has said that it is "good drinking music." It's really kind of hard to pin down; if you have a good description, let him know. His main appeal is to the college crowd, but it is not unusual to see others not fitting this stereotype enjoying his music.
In addition to playing in Milwaukee, he regularly plays all over Wisconsin, as well as northern Illinois (mainly Chicago) and Minneapolis. Sometimes he takes roadtrips to other parts of the country; the next time he does, we'll tell you.
