BIOGRAPHY: Sleeping Jesus is a Rock and Roll band started by Nick Elstadin in Winona,MN. The now five-piece Minneapolis band, featuring Tyler Steinley, Andy Bauer, Seamus St.Clair, and Dante DeGrazia, just released their new album “Hollywood Smile”.

Hollywood Smile sees the band ditching the hazy dream pop stylings of their debut album and dipping their toes into the waters of Rock and Roll and Americana for the very first time. After a release show at First Avenue’s 7th Street Entry, the band will be bringing their charming version of rock n’roll to festivals and audiences across the Midwest and beyond in 2024.

Join us for Cherokee Social on Sat. July 13, at 7:30pm! (Event logistics in the link.)

It’s rare for us to feature a performer from outside Minnesota, but we’ve been following Julian and Cherokee Social for years and can’t wait to host them at Grand Oak Opry. We hope you’ll join us!

BIOGRAPHY: Bred in Baltimore and based in Denver. Indie Pop Act Cherokee Social combines American Indigenous percussion with the stylings of contemporary pop music. This two piece brings the energy of a full band when they play live and can be seen playing with established touring acts like Devotchka and Xiuhtezcatl as well as selling out their own headlining shows.

Join us for HEYARLO on Sat. July 27 at 7:30. We’ve had the pleasure of seeing DeCarlo Jackson in person, and he appeared with the band Blue Dream in 2022. You won’t want to miss this show and these incredible performers! (Event logistics in the link above.)

BIOGRAPHY: HEYARLO is an instrumental indie-jazz group based out of Minneapolis, MN. The group is fronted by DeCarlo Jackson on Flugelhorn and supported by Megan Mahoney on Bass, Evan Slack on Guitar, Sam Rosenstone on Keys and Rick Haneman on drums. Each member is very active in the Twin Cities music scene and can be seen playing with notable groups such as Hippo Campus, Sid Sriram, Boyish, Samia, Honeybutter and more.

Press:
“HEYARLO is a group of talented artists with careers already launched separately. They come together with a sophisticated, rich sound. Their latest single, “Chanting & Gossip,” lives up to the band’s self-proclaimed mix of soul, funk, hip-hop, and jazz.” -NT (The Current)

Join us for The Orange Goodness on Saturday August 10th at 7:30. This show will be so much fun! (Logistics in event link.) Join us!

THE ORANGE GOODNESS- is an exciting groove-infused alt/indie rock group that creates out of Minneapolis, Minnesota and features Mike Michel (guitars, vocals) Ian Allison (bass) and Reese Kling (drums). This music collaboration grew organically from a solo acoustic recording and auditory health music campaign Mike Michel created called On The Mend. Mike was afforded the opportunity to perform the songs from On The Mend on multiple stages throughout the Midwest as a solo artist, but decided to expand the performance experience to a full electric band which led to the addition of Minnesota session aces, Ian and Reese. Their collective chemistry was immediate, vibrant, and exploratory! To celebrate this new music birth, The Orange Goodness released their debut single, Dare I Do, in 2020 and in the the fall of 2021, their debut EP, Flying Under The Radar Of Chaos, hit the airwaves and wifi networks of the world! Thanks to their reputations as high energy performers and diverse session musicians, The Orange Goodness have been invited to many unique festivals, house concerts, clubs and theaters around the midwest! 

The Orange Goodness are steadfast in their mission to be an all inclusive, ageless, genre less music group!

EVV was part of Mayyadda’s band in 2023, and we’re so excited to feature her solo act! Join us for EVV on Saturday Aug. 24, 7:30pm! (Logistics in event link above.)

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.
