[local-music] Saturday, November 11th...Molitor and The Jeremy Rowe Band

[Teresa Woods]

"Amps for Animals," an all ages benefit concert for the Copper Country 
Humane Society, will take place this Saturday, November 11th at the Finnish 
American Heritage Center in Hancock.  The concert starts at 7:00 
p.m.  Doors will open at 6:30 p.m.

The benefit concert features local favorite "The Jeremy Rowe Band" and the 
Milwaukee-based "Molitor," a 2006 "Zippo Hot Tour" semifinalist.

Internationally known, The Jeremy Rowe Band has molded a powerful blend of 
raw rock verses with explosive choruses that contain beautiful 
melodies.  With his varied musical tastes Rowe has created a style that is 
truly his own.  Influenced by musical greats such as Jimi Hendrix, Led 
Zeppelin and The Tragically Hip, the band performs a blend of rock 
originals as well as modern rock covers.

Molitor brings its power-pop music to the Upper Peninsula.  Their sound is 
described as a blend of music from influences like Jimmy Eat World and 
Weezer.  Molitor's original music has made them into one of the Midwest's 
top up-and-coming bands.  According to OnMilwaukee.com, their new release, 
"Sometimes I Get Like This," is a melodic, propulsive five-song punk pop disc.

All proceeds raised from ticket sales will be donated to the Copper Country 
Humane Society.  The event is sponsored by the Finlandia University Campus 
Enrichment Fund.  Members of the Humane Society will be on hand to answer 
questions about adopting and volunteering.  A drop box for donations of pet 
food, toys and bedding will also be available.

Tickets are $5.00 per person and are available in advance or at the 
door.  Please contact (906) 487-7360 for additional information or to 
reserve tickets.  Seating is limited so act quickly!

The Copper Country Humane Society, founded in 1972, seeks to prevent and 
reduce the suffering, neglect and abuse of animals and to provide 
professional, compassionate care for the pets they shelter.  Animals are 
not judged by "time of stay" to determine adoptability.  They are evaluated 
by temperament, health and quality of life.
