Okay, it’s not an orchestra. More like a banjo-harp-gentle-rockin-happy machine. We don’t know what to call it, but we want everyone to know about it. The music has a lot of light in it. We try to play beautiful songs from all eras. Plus a ton of my own songs dating from the beginning of my songwriting quest right up to the present. That’s Quillan Roe of The Roe Family Singers, me, Jacques Wait who touches all music in Minneapolis, and harpist Phala Tracy.

**SOLD OUT** A steadfast and exhilarating live performance of the Beatles’ beloved, rarely-performed studio years recordings, served up by a veteran cast of area songwriters, performers, gadabouts and multi-instrumentalists.

Music for your dancing soul. Celebrating Afro-Caribbean music.  Malamanya is comprised of musicians who share a mutual respect and enthusiasm for traditional rhythms and melodies from the Caribbean and Latin America.

Elektric Voodoo is a world beat rock & roll band out of San Diego, CA,  The 7-piece ensemble blends Afrobeat and Latin rhythms with rock & roll, psychedelia, jazz, blues and many other influences into its own unique genre that tastefully straddles the line between modern and vintage. What the listener is left with is a very unique sound that while is immediately very dance-able, also offers innovation, song craft, and melody. The band is led by Scott Tournet, co-founder of Grace Potter & The Nocturnals.
