MinionFest w/ Hot Kunch, Display Case, & Formerly Gifted – ISU Student Union Board, M-Shop

ISU Memorial Union-Maintenance Shop 2229 Lincoln Way, Ames, IA, United States

Hot Kunch was formed at Iowa State University in 2016 via the now defunct ISU music-making club, GENRE, which helped musicians meet each other based on what sound and genres they were pursuing. What would become Hot Kunch all auditioned to be part of “The Bar Band” and ended up getting a weekly gig at Paddy’s Pub on Welch Ave. Des Moines hard-rock favorites Display Case will support the show and Ames’ own and alt-rockers, Formerly Gifted, will open.

$15 – $20
