Kilted Farmer Koncerts is composed of a group of people who eat, sleep and breathe music, and in particular, live music. You’ll often see us at shows featuring local, national and international acts, at dance nights such as Chamber, Transmission, Hard Mondays or the various dance nights at Ground Zero, at the Elysium Society’s Gothic Coffee meetups, or Goth Prom planning meetings. You might also see us around the web blogging, podcasting, posting about music, or discussing music at Dark Twin Cities.

Some of you know us and some of you don’t, so we’ll be doing a series of “getting to know you” blog posts to give you an idea of who we are via some things that have caught our attention musically. First up is our fearless leader, Trace.
