Leftover Salmon
From Denver, Colorado
First Twin Cities show since since November 16, 2013 • Third Twin Cities show on MN Live's calendar since October 20, 2012
From last.fm:
Leftover Salmon is a genre-bending band from Boulder, Colorado. Their unique blend of bluegrass, rock, country, and Cajun/Zydeco, which the band calls "Polyethnic Cajun Slamgrass", has found favor with the jam band scene. The band formed by accident in 1989 (see 1989 in music), when a local band, the Salmon Heads, asked some members of the Left Hand String Band to fill some missing spots in its lineup. The synergy worked and the result was Leftover Salmon. Read more about Leftover Salmon on Last.fm.
The Giving Tree Band
From Illinois
First Twin Cities show since since December 27, 2013 • First Mainroom show • Fifth Twin Cities show on MN Live's calendar since February 8, 2011
From last.fm:
The Giving Tree Band is a rock & roll band from Yorkville, Illinois. They all live together, travel together and perform with a wide array of instruments from acoustic & electric guitars, slide guitars & banjos to violin, mandolin & pedal steel. Though the group uses an instrumentation largely associated with bluegrass and Americana, their sound often drums up comparisons to such classic rock icons as The Band, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, CSNY, and The Beatles.
