Steve Isakson

 

Rock n roll with some classic sounds!

 

Boss Mama (Colleen Myhre)

 

​Colleen (Boss Mama) Myhre has soul, and she pours it into every note. With complete control of her voice, “Colleen (Boss Mama) Myhre has soul, and she pours it into every note. “- Tony Peterson – Social Animals.  With complete control of her voice, Colleen takes listeners on an emotional ride from smooth country heartbreak to foot stomping Americana blues and beyond. Her songwriting ranges from honest emotion and earthly imagery to the raucousness of horses, strippers, and whiskey. Myhre is a true American singer/songwriter grounded in her passion of soulful and heartfelt music.

 

Ian Alexy

 

The new record by singer-songwriter, guitarist Ian Alexy is inhabited by misfit characters struggling to navigate their way in a morally complex world. The Deserters in this sense are not disloyal, just in need of escaping their surroundings for higher ground. This character driven approach to songwriting is exemplified in the infectious first single Misfits In Love which tells the story of three sets of unlikely lovers.

 

    Ian wrote the songs on Deserters while living in Minneapolis, just before moving to a more rural setting in nearby Wisconsin. “Now that I have some perspective on my time in Minneapolis I can see how much the city and it’s music affected my songwriting.”

 

    On the turntable, Ian was fueling his inspiration with Pretenders, Thin Lizzy and Tom Petty records which helped shape the style of the new EP. “The great thing about collecting old records on vinyl is hearing the obscure tracks that never made it to radio.” Alexy studied jazz composition at Berklee College Of Music and has a voracious appetite for songwriting.  

 

Special Guests: DERECHO

 

DERECHO is a new danceable funk group fronted by Al Sparhawk (Low) and Al Church. Hear covers by groups like Funkadelic, Curtis Mayfield, and Isley Brothers and original material by the newly assembled Minnesota-based 4-piece.
