SUMMARY:Lone Piñon Live!
DESCRIPTION:overview\n\nThe Talent\nLone Piñon is a New Mexican string band\, or “orquesta típica”\, whose music celebrates the integrity and diversity of their region’s cultural roots. With fiddles\, upright bass\, guitars\, accordions\, vihuela\, and bilingual vocals\, they play a wide spectrum of the traditional music that is at home in New Mexico. The Norte has long been a crossroads of cultures\, and centuries of intersecting histories\, trade routes\, migrations\, and cultural movements have endowed the region with an expansive and rich musical heritage that weaves together Spanish\, Mexican\, Indigenous\, European immigrant\, Anglo-American\, and Afro-American musical influences. The oldest strands of this tradition have survived in continuity\, renewed by each new generation’s contribution to core style and repertoire that has been passed from musician to musician\, in some cases over many centuries. Though rapid cultural change since the ‘50s has led to these sounds becoming scarce in their home territory\, they never fully disappeared–thanks to the elders and past generations that lovingly and tenaciously carried them forward\, renewing the voice of their musical ancestors at each step into changing circumstances. The musicians of Lone Piñon learned from elder musicians who instilled in them a respect for continuity and an example of the radicalism\, creativity\, and cross-cultural solidarity that has always been necessary for musical traditions to adapt and thrive in each generation. In 2014\, Lone Piñon was founded as a platform for creativity around the oldest sounds of traditional New Mexico string music\, sounds that had all but disappeared from daily life in many Northern New Mexico communities. Through relationship with elders\, study of field recordings\, connections to parallel traditional music and dance revitalization movements in the US and Mexico\, and hundreds of local and national performances\, they have brought the language of the New Mexico orquesta típica back onto the modern stage\, back onto dance floors\, into a contemporary aesthetic/artistic conversation\, and into the ears of a young generation. The musical landscape of Northern New Mexico bears the record of interconnecting musical movements that cross state\, national\, generational\, and ethnic borders. Lone Piñon’s active and recorded repertoire reflects that complexity\, and has included a wide range of regionally-relevant material (Western swing\, conjunto\, New Mexican Spanish and Mexican ranchera\, Central Mexican son regional\, country\, onda chicana\, etc.) around the core New Mexican violin and accordion-driven polkas\, cunas\, inditas\, valses\, and chotes learned from elders. \n \nTicketing\n$21.50 online\n$24.00 at the door \nAgenda\n\n6:30-7:30 Doors\n7:30-9:30 Music\n\nLocation\nAddress: 67011 hwy 63\, Lake City\, MN 55041 \nParking\nONLY PARK ON EAST SIDE OF 82 (general store side of the gravel road) \nrefer to picture on homepage if confused \nAccessibility\nThe music venue itself is only accessed via staircase.

SUMMARY:Chris Acker and The Growing Boys with The Montvales Live!
DESCRIPTION:overview\n\nThe Talent\nIn a genre full of tall tales and marketable lies\, New Orleans’ Chris Acker crafts candid songs – weaving his wit and woes into a body of work that exposes the stale plight of the American Songster to the honest\, and sometimes hilarious\, light of day. In the tradition of Guthrie and Prine\, Chris lends a quavering voice to the half-rotten romance of the unremarkable and unrefined. Regardless if you’re sitting by a backyard fire on a muggy Louisiana night or standing stage-side in some far flung town\, when you hear Chris Acker playing\, you’re hearing the end result of countless hours of observing the masters of the craft…and the end result of repeating their mistakes. From the folk revival through the golden age of country music\, deafened by punk shows and brass bands alike\, Chris’s songwriting is a nod to the absurd yet muted brilliance that inhabits the molded corners of the bars he patrons and cratered street he treads\, paired with a pained honesty that merits a long second look. Acker released his fourth full-length album\, Famous Lunch\, on Gar Hole Records in October of 2024. Famous Lunch contains some of his best work yet: laid back\, country-rockers like “Wouldn’t Do For You (Buddy)” and “Shit Surprise” (which Paste Magazine called a “song of the year contender” in 2024)\, a few raucous\, bar-ready joints like “Don’t You Know (Who I Think I Am)” and “Bunn Machine”\, and tender\, folky triumphs like “Stubborn Eyes” and “Eyelash”\, all showcasing Chris’ gift of building “vivid scenes at an impressively low word count” (No Depression). Acker tours solo or with his band The Growing Boys — Zach Thomas (bass)\, Nikolai Shveitser (pedal steel)\, Dave Hammer (guitar\, vocals)\, Sam Gelband (drums\, vocals)\, and occasionally Howe Pearson (piano). \nChris Acker is gonna play with The Growing Boys and the Montvales are gonna open for them. \n \nThe Montvales: Born and raised in Knoxville\, TN\, Sally Buice and Molly Rochelson of The Montvales spent much of their formative years busking amidst the Elvis impersonators and musical saw players of the town’s Market Square\, honing their uniquely boisterous harmonies and perfecting the art of people-watching. Some fifteen years later\, the two are still at it-maintaining their study of the robust chaos of the commons as they tour the country playing their descriptive\, textured songs on the self-described “feral outskirts of country music.” Their lyrics tackle everything from heartbreak to gentrification to abortion rights\, pulling audiences in alongside their well-worn harmonies and nearly telepathic musical connection. \nTicketing\n$21.50 online\n$24.00 at the door \nAgenda\n\n5:00 pm Doors\n6:00-8:00 pm Music\n\nLocation\nAddress: 67011 hwy 63\, Lake City\, MN 55041 \nParking\nONLY PARK ON EAST SIDE OF 82 (general store side of the gravel road) \nrefer to picture on homepage if confused \nAccessibility\nThe music venue itself is only accessed via staircase.
