Help us give a warm welcome to Kick-Ass goth rockers Mr. Softheart out of Des Moines/Cedar Falls Iowa!
About this event
Mr. Softheart is an American 3-piece from Des Moines/Cedar Falls, IA.
Formed in 2021 by brothers John and Nick Fisher, alongside their long-time creative partner Charlie Patterson, Mr. Softheart’s sound fits most closely within a post-punk ethos — albeit one that favors minimalism and intimacy over more conventional iterations of the genre.
This new project arrives on the heels of the trio’s previous group, Hex Girls, a 5-piece glam punk staple of Iowa’s most notable festivals, appearing at Hinterland Music Festival in 2021, 80/35 in 2018 and 2019, and Max Ames in 2019.
Mr. Softheart’s debut release, “Caravaggio”/”Flower of Tomorrow” was released on June 10, 2022. Critics described the double single as an impressive calling card and a striking new territory for the band, comparing the title track “Caravaggio” to the likes of Nick Cave and Talk Talk, and calling the b-side “Flower of Tomorrow” reminiscent of Peter Gabriel and Pink Floyd.
Mr. Softheart is currently recording new music, and plans to announce tour dates in summer 2022. A third single will follow in late summer.
With special guests, local band Malamiko.
