June 2 at 6:00pm: BreAnne Stone
Joined by Nathan Hoeft on lead guitar and Joe Hinrichs on drums, the music takes on new life—layered, dynamic, and rhythm-driven while still holding onto the intimacy at its core. For fans of artists like Brandi Carlile, Maggie Rogers, and Lake Street Dive, BreAnne Stone offers a sound that’s both deeply personal and effortlessly inviting.
June 16 at 6:00pm: Casey Joe and The Foxes
Casey Joe and the Foxes are a folk trio from Des Moines. With thundering upright basslines, swashbuckling mandolin and inviting harmonies, songs written by Casey Joe come to a whole new life with this band.
July 14 at 6:00pm: The Bone People
Poet and singer/songwriter Debra Marquart and her collaborators, Peter Manesis and Anthony Stevens, fuse elements of acoustic rock, jazz, and rhythm & blues in The Bone People with a female vocal and lush guitar parts underpinned by intricate congas and other hand drums—to find a sliver of listening space where music can be as close & intimate as acoustic but also as powerful and moving as electric.
July 28 at 6:00pm: Beggars’ Bargain
Bio
August 18 at 6:00pm: Society of Broken Souls
Society of Broken Souls is the songwriting duo of multi-instrumentalists Dennis James and Lauryn Shapter. Performing their own brand of American Roots Music, they write unflinching songs that confront our shared, raw humanity while celebrating the beautiful mosaic of the human experience. Having performed in 34 states from coast to coast over the last decade, their live show features seamless harmony vocals and a wide array of instruments and sounds. From stripped down, bare-bones acoustic arrangements to a denser and edgier electric sound, their songs invite the listener to walk through the fire with them — and to find freedom, strength and courage on the other side.
