Earlier this September, Tyler Fassnacht (Proud Parents, Baby Tyler) continued his folk-leaning TS Foss project with the single “Grown Used To It.” Following the release of that single, a small band Fassnacht had assembled embarked on a short tour that will conclude with a stop on September 12 at the Bur Oak. New and lightly reworked material from TS Foss will be on tap at this show, with the band appearing as a trio. Joining Fassnacht on the bill will be two other acts Tone Madison has featured: Americana-pop artist Julia Blair and alt-punk mainstay Graham Hunt.

Blair, who released the lovely Better Out Than In earlier this year, has a wide discography to choose from that includes her work with both Holy Sheboygan! and Dusk. Hunt, who rose to prominence in Wisconsin via frenetic Milwaukee power pop act Midnight Reruns, will be appearing fresh off the release of June’s superlative If You Knew Would You Believe It. Blair, Hunt, and Fassnacht have all left a significant impression on Wisconsin’s music scene at large and have proven incredibly versatile over the past decade-plus. Having them all together on a bill represents an unmissable opportunity. —Steven Spoerl
