Lucky Pineapple describes themselves thus: “six people, six points-of-view, a schizo-suicide of stylings and sounds.” Equal parts math rock, jazz fusion and even a small dose of indie-pop make Lucky Pineapple a unique collective for the literate mind. The band members seemingly contribute their respective parts equally to create a refreshingly original, unified sound. Look for the band to be featured on the forthcoming Louisville edition of the Burn to Shine film project alongside other great Louisville artists such as Will Oldham, Shipping News and Liberation Prophecy.

Indianpolis band Abner Trio have been accused of being “extremely off-kilter indie-pop for fans of shifting time signatures and spoken word wisdom.” A fair assessment whittled down to one sentence, but the Abner Trio are much more than a sentence neatly sumarized. In fact, they’d also likely be accused of unconventional sentence structure and the occasional run-on, experimenting with their own way of writing and arranging, carving out a niche occupied by few more than themselves.
For fans of: Pavement, Sonic Youth and a mysterious place called the Midwest
Louisville newcomers Virgin Flame open.
