“It’s impossible to stand still during a Mae Simpson Music set. Simpson’s raspy, dynamic voice is larger than life — but not as large as her uncontainable energy that radiates from the stage.” – Colleen Cowie (Minneapolis Public Radio)

Mae Simpson is known for their high energy and stage presence that speaks for itself. Tight horn and Rhythm section set the tone, immediately pulling fans to engage. The band includes Jorgen Wadkins on guitar, David Kellerman on bass, drummer and background vocalist Aaron Silverstein, and trumpeter Paul Pederson. In 2023 they released Chandelier & Bloom.

Feed the Dog is an eclectic and action-packed, experimental jam-grass act. The midwest based 4-piece masterfully blends soul-pleasing songwriting rich in imagery and storytelling with a genre bending, shake-your-hips, instrumental flair. Their high energy performances are driven by the unique and progressive approach of each player: imaginative melodies with graceful ambiance skillfully crafted on the violin, tireless beats both dynamic and soulful confidently assembled on the drums, driving low end with finesse and intention forged on the bass guitar, and unique approach to playing the acoustic guitar blending fast picking bluegrass runs with the strength of blues and rock to evoke an emotional contrast between melancholy and hopeful.

Join us where every night is ladies' night and rock & roll reigns! Based in Minneapolis, Rebel Queens is a collective band of women featuring top musicians performing music influenced by the gritty rebel spirit of Joan Jett and the electric energy of vintage rock 'n' roll. The band's set list offers something familiar and something new with dynamic takes on classic tracks alongside original compositions that showcase the band’s unique style and talent. From the wailing guitars to the powerhouse vocals and fun-loving stage presence, Rebel Queens is proof that rock & roll is not only surviving, but thriving with the bands and fans that carry it forward.
