Half Ivory
Half Ivory creates narrative-driven indie alternative performances that ask audiences to disappear into another world. Every element—from the songs to the storytelling to the pacing of the show—is built in service of a single idea: that music is at its most powerful when it isn’t just heard, but experienced. The result is a performance that unfolds with the focus and intention of a larger narrative, inviting audiences to leave feeling a little more understood than when they arrived.

Join us for an unforgettable evening of original music at Day Block Brewing on Wednesday, September 9, as three standout Twin Cities acts take over the Tap Room for a night of immersive performances and infectious songwriting.
Headlining the evening is Half Ivory, whose narrative-driven indie alternative performances transform a concert into an experience. Blending music, storytelling, and thoughtful pacing, Half Ivory invites audiences into a world where every song is part of a larger journey—leaving listeners feeling inspired, connected, and understood.
Supporting the bill is YES WE ARE, a genre-blending band whose heartfelt songs celebrate the full spectrum of the human experience. Their debut EP, Into This Garden, earned praise for its rich songwriting, with the single “Daisy” featured on editorial playlists from Spotify and TIDAL.
Opening the night is Dave’s Manual, a Twin Cities power trio delivering irresistible, hook-filled rock with sharp melodies, driving rhythms, and songs that stay with you long after the show ends.
Whether you’re a fan of indie alternative, emotionally honest songwriting, or catchy rock anthems, this lineup offers something for every music lover.
