   About Couch Forts
What can you say about a band like Couch Forts? A three-man band out to change history is typically the overwhelming response. The members of this fine group are Owen Kelley, Matt Opachick, and Tyler Evans. Kelley, a former lion tamer, plays guitar, bass drum, and also sings. MattO, a world renowned rodeo clown, plays the fiddle. And last but not least, Tyler "Turkey Fart" Evans, the father of both Kelley and Opachick, plays banjo. With their powers combined, they create music that is often referred to as, "architectonic, heavy industrial folk rock with a crude awareness of the human condition." They would love to build a couch fort with you. - Harold Bloom

Hey guys, Maria from a Light Sleeper here. I'll be seeing you this weekend, no? Remember Bloomington last year? I'm hoping this show involves fewer people doing acid and more people over 16. Looking forward to the show. Cheers!
