Cooper, Corey-Flatau, Ilhang, and Pollesch come together for the Duluth-based songwriting project, Old Love. If the image of Adrianne Lenker and Jerry Garcia watching an episode of Carl Sagan’s Cosmos on a starry night brings a smile to your face, Old Love might just fall for you. And if you like music that breezes between upbeat indie folk and heart string tugging bops, you might just fall for Old Love.

The Spine Stealers and Ross Thorn kick off their Western tour in Duluth! The show doubles as an album release for Thorn’s second album, Fitting In. They’ll be joined by TNT HiFi The Spine Stealers are a two-gal duo making “spooky folk” influenced by the north-wood Wisconsin pines, 24/7 truck stop diners, heartbreak and dark lakes. Kate and Emma started learning guitar together around bonfires in their shared hometown during the height of the pandemic, soon writing songs inspired by lonesome winters, the heartaches of nostalgia and broken ideas of love. The duo started frequenting open mics in July of 2022, which led them to a whirlwind first year as performers. It began with opening for Dead Horses at Madison’s Majestic Theater for Folk Fest 2023, then winning the 2023 Blue Ox Music Festival Virtual Band Competition, and releasing their first ever EP, “River Teeth Tapes” in July, 2023. 2024…
SALTYDOG Their rhythms may be a little bossy. Their drummers commanded me to feel Saucy. Another Duluth band that can hold a groove. The Bass lines funk and the bootys move. Some songs tell stories and others tell moods. They sing about friends and they sing about foods. With Improvisations both jarring and dreamy, one guitar clucks and the other ones creamy. Looking for a band to follow outta the fog? Well look no further than Saltydog. Duluth-based northwoods funk jam band Saltydog consists of Jacob Mahon on guitar and vocals, drummer Owen “Owie”Mahon (who also does vocals), Sam Deters on guitar, Bryon “Lefty” Johnson on percussion, Calvin “Calzone” Lund on the Bass and Gavin St. Clair on the keys. QUINNE + JAMIE NESS opening!
