2:30-3:15: Matt Hannah is a Minneapolis-based folk Americana singer-songwriter. His music has been heard on KCMP The Current and radio stations throughout the country. His album Dreamland was called “not only original…but inspired” by the Star Tribune and City Pages.
3:30-4:30: King Wilkie’s Dream is a Minnesota bluegrass band that has a wonderful energy and unique ability to engage a crowd. Bluegrass, blues, swing, Americana, country, tin pan alley, and a little pop are all represented in their music, which entertains in a way that transcends generations and connects with audiences.
4:45-5:45: Pleasure Horse is the duo of songwriter Tim Evenson and guitarist Ben Mahowald. Dave Hoenack of Hymie’s Records says: “Pleasure Horse offers just a little of everything you’ve ever loved about country music: beer-soaked heartbreak and twang, a little Tex-Mex, and a little rock and roll.”
This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the East Central Regional Arts Council, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund. #ArtsLegacy #ecrac
