Rainbolt Mountain Project
2024-07-18 19:00 - 22:00
Rainbolt Mountain Project

In April of 2015, four musicians met up at a jam session. Recognizing how they blended and jived, Jay Manke, Joe O’Malley, Dan Rainbolt, and Dave Kuenstler started something called The Rainbolt Mountain Project. Word caught on and bass player Marty Rice (yes, THE Marty Rice) joined the band.
As of late these guys have been getting asked to play at pubs and festivals throughout MN and WI. With great classic tunes and fun originals, RMP entertains like no other!!! Playing their own originals and classic Americana songs, they have developed into the Upper Midwest’s finest Bargrass band.

Spells and Curses with Jack Swagger and AJ Stone
2024-07-19 19:00 - 22:00
Spells and Curses
After losing a parent, ending a relationship and leaving unhealthy friend circles all within a few months, theRave was forced to start a new chapter in life by exercising unfamiliar feelings of love and loss: so he turned to music and formed Spells and Curses.
But it was the loss of a family member to suicide that gave his work a focused purpose; to prove that despite our past trauma, surviving and making a better life is the ultimate revenge. Spells and Curses attempt this by creating music to explore one’s “inner space”, with songs that act as a “spell” to enhance the moment, or a “curse” to damn it.
Since then, the mission has been to inspire those looking to free themselves from toxic and traumatic environments. To empower people whose attempts at improving their lives are met with resistance or negativity. To show anyone that the venom of opposition can be turned into the basis of courage. This focus on love, hate, vitriol, and freedom has been the tenet of Spells and Curses’ entire output; as seen through self-produced albums (such as SUADADE and Sinful Things), to currently releasing a new song and music video every 2 months.
This show is free to the public and all are welcome!
