Chicago’s Weird, Grandma: November 19 The Lincoln Squares

Posted by Joe on November 13, 2012

That's Weird Grandma TWG Weekly Update Touring Performances

Chicago’s Weird, Grandma will feature The Lincoln Squares on November 19

Here is an interview between you and Barrel of Monkeys’ Artistic Director, Molly Brennan:

You: Tell me about The Lincoln Squares.

Molly: Michael Mahler and Alan Schmuckler are critically-acclaimed actors/musicians/singers/songwriters (and Monkeys) who’ve made their mark on the Chicago theatre scene; now, with their band The Lincoln Squares, they’re taking their act on the road. Featuring fellow Monkey Alex Goodrich on banjo/ukelele/harmonica/saw, the Lincoln Squares combine the pop rock of Ben Folds, the poetic folk of Paul Simon, and the churning drive of Mumford and Sons.

You: What will The Lincoln Squares bring to the adaptation process that is unique?

Molly: Their original songs bubble with idiosyncratic honesty, and their performances are marked by a charming easy showmanship. They will be sharing this magic on Monday night by performing “This Should Not Happen”, composed by Michael Mahler, words from the “ISAT Argument” story by Tianna J from Columbia Explorer’s Academy.

You: How else can I experience the Lincoln Squares if I like what I see or want to know more?

Molly: Czech out the websites of these fine gentlemen!

Discover Michael Mahler!

Discover Alan Schmuckler!
