The New Standards Holiday Show!

From the Star Tribune:

THE NEW STANDARDS
Dec. 3-5: If you think it's fun hearing these rockers-turned-pop-jazzists reinventing modern classics by Britney Spears and Arcade Fire, you should hear what they can do with some of the oldest standards in the holiday books. Co-vocalists Chan Poling and John Munson -- of the Suburbs and Semisonic/Trip Shakespeare, respectively -- and their ace-in-the-hole vibraphonist Steve Roehm always use the season as a good reason to bring out some guests. The other names are still TBA, but no matter. The Saturday show (Dec. 4) sold out in a flash, so they added both a Friday-night set as well as a lower-key, family-friendly Sunday matinee. (8 p.m. Dec. 3-4 & 2 p.m. Dec. 5, Fitzgerald Theater, 10 E. Exchange St., St. Paul. $20-$32.)
