Lifted directly from the Facebook Wire: “Miguel Soria returns to the newly re-opened Public Space One (basement of the Jefferson Building downtown) for a night of monologues, photography, and yes, music. Miguel (as Monadnoc) has toured the country with These United States, lived in Iowa City, and written books. He sings like a poet who learned to play guitar, which I understand is exactly how things shook down. Come check it out. It’s only $3.”
And we’ve added our own bit: this is going to be a cool show. First off, Public Space One is a DIY / arts venue that provides a space for anything interesting and independent. It’s great to have it back in effect so let’s support it. Marc Hans (of the sublime Quiet Bears), punky bluegrassers A Paper Cup Band, and monologue mastermind Arlen Lawson join Monadnoc on stage, if we can call it a stage.
Check out some mp3s of Monadnoc, a little video tour of Public Space One, and some in-depth reporting on the space’s revival over at the Daily Iowan.
Let’s do this.
