TELEKINETIC YETI returns to BIGS w/ Temple of the Fuzz Witch
2025-06-20 20:00 - 23:30 | BIGS – Sioux Falls, 3110 w 12th St, SIOUX FALLS, SD, 57104, United States
Based out of Iowa, Telekinetic Yeti is a two-man band that delivers sonic brutality melded with psychedelic doom wizardry, forged by the worship of the almighty riff and honed by relentless touring and dedication to their craft.
Creating music as cryptically enchanting as it is heavy, you wouldn’t guess that the impressive cacophony pouring out of the speakers like molten, metal syrup is being produced by only two people. Founder and guitarist Alex Baumann explains, “Originally I decided not to have a bass player purely for logistical reasons, it was just another schedule to work around, another person who’s boss could tell us we can’t tour, but then I started seeing it as a challenge, like let’s see how heavy we can make it with just two people.” That started grabbing peoples attention.

Relentless touring and playing pretty much any club that would have them, the band set sail on their epic voyage, selling their debut album Abominable out of their van and cutting their teeth in the underground playing hundreds of shows. All the while receiving rave reviews of their live performance as well as their first release, which landed at #2 on the doom charts and stayed right there for months. The Sludgelord called the eight-song album “a f***ing monster from start to finish,” and The Obelisk, including the album in their year-end, best of list, dubbed it the “debut of the year,” and said “it could have been another band’s second or third record for the level of cohesion on display.”
The video for “Stoned and Feathered” racked up nearly a few hundred thousand views and counting. It was at this time that Telekinetic Yeti caught the attention of Ozzy Osbourne bass player, Blasko, who named Abominable on his “5 favorites” list.
People were starting to catch on, and soon thereafter Telekinetic Yeti would be invited to tour extensively with some of the best heavy rock bands in the business, including Clutch, Black Label Society, Red Fang and Weedeater.
Now the band finds itself in a much different, auspicious position, and with the help of famed producer Phillip Cope (Baroness, Kylesa, Damad, Black Tusk et al), Telekinetic
Yeti returns with their eagerly-anticipated, second full-length album, Primordial. With this release, the band takes their game to a whole new level. Primordial explores themes as diverse as evolution, sorcery, black magic and the contradictions of the gloriously uplifting yet simultaneously melancholic human condition. ” I wanted to write something that was an appropriate intro to the album, that brought to mind an early earth setting and featured atmospheric elements as well as some droning, sparse simplicity and lyrically, simple imagery regarding the dawn of humankind and creation of the first tools.” Explains Baumann of the title track.
As it unfolds, the album evolves into a cathartic exploration turning themes into tangible sounds and haunting fugues. Says Baumann regarding the inspiration behind “Beast”: “This song is about wanting to escape the societal constraints that keep us on the wheel, toiling away, indefinitely. Its also about questioning authority figures, or really anyone that claims to have all the answers.”
Matured songwriting, creatively brutal riffs and an exercise in monstrous tones make this listen an immersive experience taking you back to explore and appreciate the primordial ooze that we all came from. Telekinetic Yeti has partnered with stalwart Indie label, Tee Pee Records.

SunSquabi LIVE @ ICON Events w/ Tuff Roots acoustic set
2025-10-08 19:00 - 23:30 | Icon Event Hall – Sioux Falls, 402 N Main Ave, Sioux Falls, SD, 57104, United States
Music has the power to move us—physically, emotionally, and spiritually. For SunSquabi—Kevin Donohue [guitar, keys, production], Josh Fairman [bass, synth], and Scotty Zwang [drums]—that power lives in the unspoken language they share on stage and in the studio. With millions of streams and high-energy performances at venues like Red Rocks Amphitheatre, they’ve carved out a space where electronic production, jam-band freedom, and funk-rooted grooves collide.
Now, the Colorado-based trio turns the page with their most defining release yet: a self-titled album that reintroduces SunSquabi in their purest form. More than a record, SunSquabi is a creative reset—a declaration of who they are now, and where they’re headed next.
“This is the most honest version of us,” says Donohue. “It felt right to make it self-titled, because we’ve grown into something new—and we wanted to mark that.”
The album follows a strong run of EPs (Cloudburst and Grind) that saw the band evolving through collaboration, improvisation, and reinvention. Tracks often began as live jams—many from their livestream sessions during the pandemic—and grew into fully fleshed-out songs that reflect both discipline and spontaneity.

“We didn’t overthink it. We trusted our instincts,” adds Fairman. “Everything came from a real place, and we stayed true to that. This record feels like a culmination.”
Since 2015, SunSquabi has toured relentlessly and released boundary-pushing records like Odyssey (2016), Deluxe EP (2017), and Instinct (2019). They’ve collaborated with artists like Lettuce, GRiZ, Late Night Radio, and The String Cheese Incident, building a loyal following along the way. Media outlets including JamBase, Live For Live Music, and ThisSongIsSick have praised their genre-defying sound and explosive live shows.
While their past work laid the foundation, SunSquabi feels like the project that defines them. It’s not just a name on a record—it’s a statement of identity, intention, and evolution. And as always, their goal is simple: move people, lift spirits, and keep the groove alive.

THAT1GUY returns to ICON Events w/ local Gabriel Michael
2025-10-23 20:00 - 23:30 | Icon Event Hall – Sioux Falls, 402 N Main Ave, Sioux Falls, SD, 57104, United States
With an extensive and amazing track record of unique and imaginative performances featuring his curious instrument and copious amounts of originality, Mike Silverman, a/k/a That1Guy, has set himself apart as a true one-of-a-kind talent that rivals any other artist currently in the entertainment industry. Averaging 150-200 shows a year all over North America and Canada, he has been a consistent favorite at such festivals as: Wakarusa, Electric Forest, Big Day out, All Good Music Festival, Bella, High Sierra Music Festival, Summer Meltdown, Montreal Jazz Festival, and many more. He was also the ʻTap Water Award’ winner at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival for best musical act. His legendary collaboration and multiple tours with Buckethead performing as The Frankenstein Brothers has further cemented his virtuoso story as a creative visionary.
His innovation continues to soar with his latest tour, That1Guy & The Magic Pipe Present: An Evening of Musical Magical Wonder… The Likes of Which Ye Haven’t Yet Seen, which kicked off in 2014. Along with his pioneering main instrument, The Magic Pipe, a monstrosity of metal, strings, and electronics, he facilitates the dynamic live creation of music and magic in ways only That1Guy can conjure. You can also expect to see magic seamlessly integrated into the already clever performance. With the addition of magic in his live shows, he has legitimately achieved an all-inclusive audio/visual performance unlike anything experienced before. “So much of my music has miraculous qualities to it because it’s hard to tell what’s going on. There are lots of slights of hand and sonic misdirection. It feels like I was meant to do magic”.

Silverman’s back-story is similar to many musicians that have come before him. He grew up a self-proclaimed music geek, soaked in the influence of his jazz musician father, and enrolled in San Francisco Conservatory of Music before joining the local jazz scene himself as a sought-after percussive bassist. This is where the similarities end though and where That1Guy truly began. “In my case, being a bass player, I just felt very restricted by the instrument itself,” he says. “I’ve always wanted to sound different and have my own sound. I was headed that way on the bass, but for me to fully realize what I was hearing in my head sonically I was going to have to do it my way”. His influential and innovative double bass style eventually evolved into what we see today as That1Guy and The Magic Pipe.
As his story continues to develop, Billboard has famously noted, “In the case of Mike Silverman’s slamming, futuristic funk act… the normal rules of biology just don’t apply.” In addition, Silverman also has new music and videos in the works for 2015 that will further validate his status as an industry trailblazer. “I like being my own person”, he says. “I didn’t set out to be a weirdo, but I’m starting to embrace it”. Ultimately, his motivation can be encapsulated as this: “Human beings do our best work when we’re challenged and pushed up against the wall”. That1Guy goes on to further explain, “By nature, we’re hunters and gatherers, spending each day looking for their next meal. It’s easy to be lazy when you don’t have to come up with something creative right away.”
w/ special guest Gabriel Michael

Gabriel Michael is a passionate and talented musician who performed 100+ shows in 2024. He draws on his varied influences to bring a powerful repertoire of soul, blues, and rock music.

Gabriel is a prolific songwriter, singer, and guitarist that prefers the energy of recording live with a band. When he can’t bring his backing band, The Enablers, he brings energy and showmanship to his solo performances. These shows inlcude a mix of americana, acoustic rock, blues, funk, and soul, accompanied by acoustic guitar, electric guitar, a looper pedal, and a melodica.
Gabriel lived in Ecuador for ten years, returning to the United States around 2019. In 2022 he and his wife welcomed their first child into the world. He works hard to make music his primary source of income, happily spending the rest of his time with his family.

Riffmas Celebrates 10th Anniversary with Epic Night of Riffs and Holiday Cheer at Icon Lounge
Get ready to deck the halls with heavy riffs! The beloved annual holiday metal extravaganza Riffmas returns for its milestone 10th anniversary on December 27th, transforming the Icon Lounge into a winter wonderland of face-melting music and family-friendly festivities.
For just $20 per person, fans of all ages are invited to join the Riff family in celebrating a decade of Christmas cheer, crushing guitar solos, and unbreakable community spirit. This all-ages event promises great music, fun times, and memories that’ll last longer than your uncle’s fruitcake.

• Headliner: RIFFLORD – The undisputed kings of riff worship close out the night with their signature blend of stoner-doom thunder and holiday-tinged anthems. Expect sleigh bells to meet sludge riffs in a set that’ll leave the Icon Lounge shaking.
• Sinking Steps Rising Eyes – Kicking off the evening with atmospheric post-metal soundscapes that build like a blizzard and hit like an avalanche.
• Thought Patrol – High-octane punk-metal hybrids patrolling the stage with razor-sharp riffs and rebellious energy.
• Indigent – Intelligent, intricate prog-metal that’ll have your brain and your fists equally engaged.
What started as a small gathering of riff-obsessed friends in 2015 has grown into Sioux Falls’ premier holiday metal tradition. Over the past ten years, Riffmas has welcomed thousands of fans – from wide-eyed kids discovering metal to grizzled veterans headbanging with their grandkids – all united under one roof for a night of music, merriment, and metal.
“This isn’t just a show – it’s a family reunion,” says RIFFLORD frontman Wyatt Bartlett. “Ten years of Riffmas means ten years of new friends, epic sets, and proving that Christmas can absolutely shred.”
