The richly evocative music of Duluth's the Murder of Crows is crafted by violinist/vocalist Gaelynn Lea and Low/Retribution Gospel Choir frontman Alan Sparhawk. The distinctive group formed in late 2011 when Lea and Sparhawk provided a soundtrack to a Lon Chaney film, and they enjoyed working together so much that the Murder Of Crows was born. While Sparhawk's name will always draw the most attention, Lea is the true star of the show, as she produces hauntingly elegant melodies on her violin while occasionally injecting direct, personal lyrics into her already poignant songs. This is their debut Minneapolis performance. With Jack Campbell and Andy Elwell. 18+
