The Grand Oak Opry is pleased to announce the 2025 summer line-up:
The weather will be PERFECT for this Saturday’s show with iLLism. Logistics below. This is our last show of the 2024 Season. We hope you will join us!
BIOGRAPHY: iLLism is a Twin Cities-based duo comprising husband and wife Envy and Fancy. Their sound spans across various genres, such as Hip-Hop, R&B, Jazz, and Minneapolis Funk, and is enriched by the use of live instruments in their performances.
With two EPs and three full-length albums under their belt, they have performed on prominent stages like Super Bowl Live, NAMM, SXSW, and Paisley Park. Beyond their musical talent, iLLism is committed to uplifting the black artistic community. In 2022, they opened The Legacy Building, in south Minneapolis. A creative space that supports the local creative community. They also are the lead organizers of the Soul of the Southside Juneteenth Arts and Music Festival, which takes place at Minnehaha and Lake Street annually each year on Juneteenth. iLLism’s unwavering commitment to music and community has created a space for themselves and others to thrive, inspiring hope, perseverance, and artistic excellence.

BIOGRAPHY: EVV is a Minneapolis-based musician that does not claim a genre. Drawing influences from blues, jazz, and rock, the solo project of Evelyn Speers is one that is years in the making. With each song, EVV sings about heartbreak and their experiences as a black femme in today’s society. EVV hopes to inspire young femmes to pursue the music that inspires them and to let their voices be heard.
