David von Schlegell (Shhh-Lay-gull) is a 15+ year veteran Singer Songwriter from Portland Oregon originally and currently based in St. Paul MN. Since he was a wee bairn, David has enjoyed both traditional mainstream folk and Americana as well as large helpings of alternative rock and roll ranging from John Prine, Jeff Tweedy, Chuck Berry, Paul Westerberg and Ray Davies to Black Francis, Elvis Costello, Robert Pollard and Stephen Malkmus.

The Sparks are a Rock and Roll Band from Minneapolis. Matt Mundinger and Nathan Walker met five years ago and vibed over their shared interests in artists like The Rolling Stones, Bruce Springsteen, Tom Petty, Lou Reed and Bob Dylan. They started jamming and writing songs that connected those sounds with the contemporary indie rock soundtrack (Wilco, Weezer, The Strokes, and Guided By Voices) that was playing in the background during their formative years. Bolstered by Rick Snyder’s nimble drumming and Jeremy Gulikson’s melodic touch on bass, the band occupies a space connecting classic and indie rock with lyrics that sometimes approach poetry and other times just rock.

Francis Emil Johnson is a singer/songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and bandleader based out of the Twin Cities. His sound is inspired by the likes of Townes Van Zandt, Ella Fitzgerald, David Berman, Johnny Cash, Nick Drake and others. In 2020, he recorded his debut full-length album “Dumb Punchlines,” which is available for streaming everywhere. Since then, he has released four singles (and counting) to streaming platforms, including the anti-perfectionist banger "Bobby Wobby" and the humorous and self-deprecating capitalist critique “Where Does Your Money Come From?” Johnson’s sound combines humor with melancholy and includes acoustic guitars layered with textures and smooth vocal delivery.
