Tony the Scribe: Mixed Blood

Tony the Scribe, of Killstreak, is releasing a solo EP called Mixed Blood on Monday — with a release show at Honey the following Thursday. "It's dark and vulnerable," writes the rapper, who's already dropped a chess-themed single called "Checkmate." Big Cats, Eric Mayson, and Chance York will be on hand to support the release show.

Dakota Dave Hull: Heavenly Hope and This Earthly Life

Dakota Dave Hull is a Twin Cities music legend — a comic personality heard on A Prairie Home Companion and elsewhere, and a singer-songwriter called "one of the best guitarists in the world" by none other than Dave Van Ronk. He's just released two crowdfunded albums (Garrison Keillor was among the backers); he'll be celebrating the dual release of Heavenly Hope and This Earthly Life with a Saturday show at the Celtic Junction that he's billing as "The Sacred and the Profane."

Reimagining electrosoul, Minneapolis multimedia artist Sevadar Sehaj is hitting Honey tomorrow night for the release of his Blue Bridge EP.

"Amy" is Amy Jo Westin, a singer-songwriter who met Mark Adams in 1993 when she played a women's open stage at the Blue Guitar in Stillwater — where she caught the ear and the eye of Mark, the establishment's proprietor. Eventually they formed a musical duo, and they keep up a busy schedule of live performances at local venues that often include senior centers and churches. Tomorrow they'll release their sixth album with a house show in Woodbury.
