Jay Ernest\, the driving force propelling Minneapolis-based Church of Cash\, has both in spades. With his bandmates\, Ernest brings the iconic Man in Black to life every time he takes the concert platform\n \nThe award-winning Church of Cash is a premier Johnny Cash tribute show band with the attitude and the chops. In 2019\, Church of Cash received “Best Tribute Act 2019” honors from the Midwest Country Music Organization. In 2021\, Jay Ernest and by extension the Church of Cash\, was inducted to the Minnesota Music Hall of Fame.  \nSince forming in 2009 in Honolulu\, Hawaii\, Church of Cash has steadily forged a reputation for excellence. The band\, which relocated to Minneapolis a year later\, made it clear early on that channeling Johnny Cash was anything but a vehicle to gain instant notoriety. Cash\, choirs\, and rock ‘n’ roll reign supreme. So\, when Jay Ernest steps in front of a microphone he embodies the true artistic spirit of the man he reveres. \n\n \nThe Church of Cash is true to the music of Johnny Cash\, and singer Jay’s deep baritone voice sings like a prairie breeze and stomps like a boot heel. Church of Cash is not a country band. Church of Cash is a tribute band with the express purpose of honoring the indelible legacy of Johnny Cash. Road-tested and always road-ready\, The Church of Cash is celebrating the soul of American music.\n \nWhether you are an ‘ol timer that grew up listening to Mr. Cash in your tractor or a young soldier driving your tank across the deserts of the Middle East with the Man in Black in your headphones\, the Church of Cash will bring his music\, with style and energy to fans everywhere.\n \nWhat the Church of Cash has that no one else can match is their loyalty to the song and the message that Johnny left to all of us. The band merely keeps this word alive with a youthful spirit that has entertained audiences completely.\n\n \n \n\nSaint Paul-based Mary Cutrufello has been hailed as a Texas honky-tonk heroine and a fiery Midwestern heartland rocker.  Connecticut-raised and Yale-educated\, Mary Cutrufello spent the 1990’s in Texas\, where her hard-driving honky-tonk style won her a loyal following\, as well as kudos from the local media and such Texas legends as Willie Nelson\, Billy Joe Shaver\, Joe Ely.  She also made 2 appearances on “Austin City Limits”\, a spot on “The Tonight Show”\, and toured with the Allman Brothers and Gov’t Mule\, among others.  \n—–The Award-Winning* Under the Canopy series at The Hook & Ladder Theater returns with its uniquely seasonal urban footprint to the Longfellow neighborhood of South Minneapolis in 2023. *Voted Best in MN 2021 by StarTribune readers.—–The Hook has committed to having a food truck Under the Canopy throughout the 2023 season for our guests.Come hungry and enjoy dinner with the show! \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \nThis activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a Minnesota State Arts Board Operating Support grant\, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.

But bring whatever you got.\n2.       Play on the downbeats. No salsa beats\, Tito Puente.\n3.       Don’t play cowbell on Telephone Line. Or any ballad for that matter. Just watch Jeff Lynne #1 for guidance. \n\nIt’s that easy! We’ve cooked up a particularly cowbell-centric set full of all the Electric Light Orchestra bangers as well as a few other cowbell classics.

To create their distinctive sound\, the band “turns” to the distant past of early American recorded music\, “turns” again to that renaissance of the 1960s and 1970s\, and finally “turns” again to the present looking forward.  Even though Turn Turn Turn was born as a cover band\, the group’s original material – sweetheart alt-country folk-pop – quickly stole the spotlight.\n \nTurn Turn Turn’s Laurel Canyon meets 70’s-Nashville-cosmic soul vibe is layered with three-part harmonies that stitch the band’s musical tapestry together. Members Adam Levy (guitars\, vocals)\, Savannah Smith (guitar\, vocals) and Barb Brynstad (bass\, vocals) are all mainstays of the Minnesota music scene and together craft an infectious\, pop-infused Americana. They each have a distinct voice\, and the combination – a “fourth voice” – is greater than the sum of its parts.\n​​\nAdam Levy is a veteran of the Minnesota rock scene\, best known for leading up the alt-rock band The Honeydogs. As a prolific songwriter and producer\, he has worked across many genres and performed worldwide. Besides writing\, recording\, and performing music\, Adam is a social activist and educator\, teaching high school students social studies and songwriting.\n \nSavannah Smith has worked with such acts as Trampled by Turtles\, William Elliot Whitmore and Laura Stevenson. In 2019\, Savannah released her debut full-length album\, Leo. The follow-up to her EP Leaving Eau Claire\, it was written in a house built by her great-grandfather and was recorded and produced Minneapolis’ Brett Bullion (Low\, Halloween Alaska\, Bad Bad Hats).\n \nBarb Brynstad is an in-demand musician with decades-long roots in the Twin Cities music community. As a singer\, bassist and guitarist\, she has performed with a variety of musicians\, including Chastity Brown\, Tina Schlieske\, and the late-great Willie Murphy. She has also performed with comedian Lizz Winstead (The Daily Show) and contributes her musical talents to a variety of theater and dance projects.\n \n\n \n\nThe Scarlet Goodbye\, labelled “the most unlikely mash-up in Minnesota Music History”\, is the creative combination of Daniel Murphy and Jeff Arundel.\n \nDaniel D. Murphy was a critical element in the formation of two favorite bands\, Soul Asylum and Golden Smog\, sharing the stage with fellow hitmakers Dave Pirner\, Gary Louris\, and Jeff Tweedy.  After a career at the top\, including the GRAMMY for “Runaway Train” and sharing the biggest stages around the world\, Danny decided he was ready to leave the road\, and\, in 2012\, stepped aside.  \n\nA chance meeting at a 2019 holiday party with Minnesota yacht-rocker Jeff Arundel was the bait. Arundel had released 8 records of original songs\, toured extensively\, and was also active as a producer of various artists including Bryan White\, Keri Noble\, Billy McLaughlin\, and Adrianne Lenker. And\, the most unlikely mash-up in Minnesota music history was formed and off to the races.\n \nWith the first collaboration\, “Paris”\, they realized that they were onto something\, as Murphy shoved Arundel into a swagger\, and Arundel tip-toed Murphy onto revealing some vulnerabilities. Meeting in an attic studio during the Pandemic\, Murphy and Arundel fashioned a collection of songs that producer John Fields\, who was brought in to mix the record\, calls “both timeless and unique\, part Rolling Stones and part Townes Van Zandt”.\n \nIn 2022\, The Scarlet Goodbye released three singles and a video to critical acclaim\, and has performed on stages large and small\, bracing for the 2023 release of their full-length record “Hope’s Eternal”\, on Ingrooves/Universal\, via Nashville’s The Label Group.\n \n \n\n—–The Award-Winning* Under the Canopy series at The Hook & Ladder Theater returns with its uniquely seasonal urban footprint to the Longfellow neighborhood of South Minneapolis in 2023. *Voted Best in MN 2021 by StarTribune readers.—–The Hook has committed to having a food truck Under the Canopy throughout the 2023 season for our guests.Come hungry and enjoy dinner with the show! \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \nThis activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a Minnesota State Arts Board Operating Support grant\, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.

He began releasing his own albums of roots-drenched music in 2000 and would go on to spend the next two decades amassing a litany of critical acclaim as he worked his way up from playing street corners and tattoo parlors to sharing bills with luminaries like Ray Charles\, Etta James\, Dr. John\, and Mavis Staples. When he’s not on the road\, La Botz can be often be found onscreen (he’s appeared in everything from True Detective to On the Road and even starred in the stage musical Ghost Brothers of Darkland County\, written by Stephen King and John Mellencamp) or teaching meditation in prisons\, Buddhist Centers\, and living rooms around the country. \n \nOver the years\, Jake’s work has been praised by Rolling Stone\, World Cafe\, No Depression\, Folk Alley\, Atwood Magazine\, American Songwriter\, PopMatters\, Glide\, Bluegrass Situation\, and many more.\n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n\n—–\nThe Award-Winning* Under the Canopy series at The Hook & Ladder Theater returns with its uniquely seasonal urban footprint to the Longfellow neighborhood of South Minneapolis in 2023. *Voted Best in MN 2021 by Star Tribune readers.—–The Hook has committed to having a food truck Under the Canopy throughout the 2023 season for our guests.Come hungry and enjoy dinner with the show!\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \nThis activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a Minnesota State Arts Board Operating Support grant\, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.

The music of Shrimp Olympics follows in the tradition of home-taping heroes like R Stevie Moore and Ween\, with heavy jazz\, country\, and psychedelic pop elements.

This rockin’ quartet is considered one of the torch bearers of American roots music.\n \nSince forming in 1988 in Southern California\, Big Sandy and His Fly-Rite Boys have become one of the world’s most beloved Americana/Roots acts\, drawing from the deep musical waters that flow just beneath the surface of Rock & Roll’s fertile soil. A childhood passion for Country\, Doo-Wop\, and Rhythm & Blues 45s led Sandy (born Robert Williams) to pursue a singing career as a teenager\, beginning a life in music that continues decades later. \n \nAnd as his personal record collection continues to grow (75\,000 and counting)\, so does the depth of the musical influences that stream through his songwriting and singing style. A critically acclaimed tribute to Tex-Mex hero Freddy Fender\, released at the beginning of the 2020 lockdown\, points the way forward for Big Sandy and his Fly-Rite Boys as they continue on a path of musical growth. After nearly 35 years on the road\, and more than two dozen releases to their credit\, they remain key figures on the ever-changing Americana circuit\, both on record and in live appearances.\n \n \n\nKinda Fonda Wanda is a high-octane\, rock ‘n’ roll\, honky-tonk experience inspired by the “Queen of Rockabilly” Wanda Jackson. The band features Amanda White\, a vocal powerhouse and compelling band leader. Minneapolis Star-Tribune said: “Amanda White has a voice that is glorious and a heart full of passion for Wanda Jackson. And\, Alan Subola is beyond words on guitar.”\n \nPrior to the outdoor music event\, Miss Shannon of “Miss Shannon’s Sock Hop” will be giving free swing dance lessons to get you ready for Big Sandy!\n \n\n\n\nThe Award-Winning* Under the Canopy series at The Hook & Ladder Theater returns with its uniquely seasonal urban footprint to the Longfellow neighborhood of South Minneapolis in 2024. *Voted Best in MN 2021 by Star Tribune readers.—–The Hook has committed to having a food truck Under the Canopy throughout the 2024 season for our guests.

This co-bill presents 3 sets of music taking us past the outdoor curfew and into the night… just the way they like to do it in the Crescent City. We will open up the evening Under The Canopy with an intimate solo performance from John Papa Gros\, followed by the Caribbean combos\, soul\, funk & blues of Paul Cebar and Tomorrow Sound (Milwaukee). Then we close the night indoors with a John Papa Gros’ full band performance for that funky Big Easy dance party! \n6pm – Doors7pm – John ‘Papa’ Gros (Solo) – Under The Canopy8pm – Paul Cebar and Tomorrow Sound – Under The Canopy9:30pm – John ‘Papa’ Gros (Full Band) – Inside Theater \n—\nNew Orleans has its fair share of musical ambassadors\, but few are more rooted in the cracked sidewalks and popping speakers of the Crescent City than John “Papa” Gros. Born and raised in the city\, Gros melds funk\, rock\, jazz\, and blues to deliver a sound that is both innovative and unmistakably New Orleans. \n \n\nIn keeping with the energy and spirit the Big Easy is known for\, Gros is a consummate live performer. His infectious band shows have been the highlight of festivals and venues across the U.S. and Europe\, showcasing versatile musicianship\, relentless grooves\, and eclectic songcraft of the highest order. Drawing on the full breadth and depth of his extensive catalog\, Gros’ live performance marries style with substance\, bringing that unique\, can’t-put-your-finger-on-it magic of New Orleans and infusing the audience with a joyous energy few artists can match. \n\n“John “Papa” Gros is a bedrock New Orleans artist\, a keyboardist\, singer and songwriter who draws on funk\, rhythm & blues and Americana songcraft; he also knows his way around the Mardi Gras music repertoire about as well as anyone.” – Keith Spera The New Orleans Advocate\n——————– \nPaul Cebar Tomorrow Sound bring forth a funky\, lyrically charged performance that sits comfortably with soulful sounds the world over. Intricate but free-swinging\, explosive yet intimate\, fresh and green as grass. Taking cues from the dance bands of western Louisiana (and his native Midwest)\, the streets (and 45’s) of New Orleans\, touring African and Caribbean combos and the soul\, funk & blues of his youth coupled with early\, teeth-cutting experience in the verbal hotbeds of  the coffeehouse scene\, Paul Cebar is a masterful synthesist of rhythmic culture. \n“I’ve been a fan of Paul’s for a long time. He and his band play great funky\, original music\, drawing from a wide range of styles I love. We love touring with them and his radio show is awesome.” -BONNIE RAITT\n\n\nThe Award-Winning* Under the Canopy series at The Hook & Ladder Theater returns with its uniquely seasonal urban footprint to the Longfellow neighborhood of South Minneapolis in 2024. *Voted Best in MN 2021 by Star Tribune readers.—–The Hook has committed to having a food truck Under the Canopy throughout the 2024 season for our guests.

Never content to allow himself to be confined to any particular category\, he embarked on a solo career that’s yielded many critically-acclaimed albums and consist kudos for his exceptional instrumental prowess\, his searing vocals\, and live performances that have dazzled audiences from coast to coast.  \n\n \nIt’s little wonder that Miami’s New Times lauded him as South Florida’s “Best Blues Guitarist” or that USA Today was inspired to remark “It’s a revelation to discover the thrilling retro-electric blues from this astonishing young guitarist.” M Music & Musicians once noted\, “His back-to-basics approach follows in the footsteps of those who fostered the blues in the Mississippi Delta and the smoky late-night haunts of Chicago.”  \n\n \n“It may be a bit premature to crown Albert Castiglia America’s newest King of the Blues\, but there’s little doubt that he at least deserves the title of heir apparent.”— Miami New Times\n \nIf the last few years are any indication\, that comment from the Miami New Times is certainly the case. In 2020\, he won a Blues Music Award “Blues Album of the Year” – in 2023\, he won both “Blues Rock Artist of the Year” and “Blues Rock Album of the Year.” \nCastiglia has never allowed himself to be confined to a musical genre and AllMusic said his style“combines hardcore blues with soul\, rock\, and country flavors for a sound that will appeal to rockers and purists alike.”\n \n \n\nMato Nanji\, longtime front man of Native American band Indigenous\, improves his craft with each record. His playing and singing have never been better as he pushes himself to new personal bests.  The group’s music is motivated not only by blues and rock greats such as Jimi Hendrix\, Carlos Santana\, Stevie Ray Vaughan\, and B.B. King\, but also by the social issues and cultural bonds of the Mato’s Nakota roots.   \n\n \nThey have won Native American Music Awards for “Blues Recordings of the Year” as well as “Artists of the Year” honors. Indigenous’ sophomore release\, Circle\, was produced and arranged by Stevie Ray Vaughan’s longtime friend and collaborator\, the late Doyle Bramhall\, Sr. \n \nBorn and raised on the Yankton Sioux Reservation in South Dakota\, front man Mato dedicates his latest release Time Is Coming to the indigenous youth and all young people on the indigenous reservations.\n \nIn addition to his Indigenous ‘day job’\, Mato Nanji has been a member of the critically acclaimed Experience Hendrix Tour since 2002.  Playing alongside original Jimi Hendrix band members Billy Cox and the late Mitch Mitchell\, the tour roster includes some of today’s blues greats including Jonny Lang\, Kenny Wayne Shepherd\, Eric Johnson\, Dweezil Zappa\, Doyle Bramhall II\, and Robert Randolph. \n \nMato and fellow EHT tour mates  David Hidalgo (Los Lobos) and Luther Dickinson (North Mississippi Allstars) collaborated on the hard-driving\, psychedelic blues-infused 3 Skulls and the Truth disc.  The album’s no-holds barred setting is the ideal foundation for the three veteran axemen to simply ‘let it fly’.\n \n \n\n\n\nThe Award-Winning* Under the Canopy series at The Hook & Ladder Theater returns with its uniquely seasonal urban footprint to the Longfellow neighborhood of South Minneapolis in 2024. *Voted Best in MN 2021 by Star Tribune readers.—–The Hook has committed to having a food truck Under the Canopy throughout the 2024 season for our guests.
