Saturday Lineup

September 15, 2007

12:00 • Barbara Piper & Bill Hammond

Faribault's own Barbara Piper combines her lovely vocals with Bill Hammond's masterful acoustic guitar stylings.


12:45 • Paul Holland/Moses Oakland (Acoustic Duo)

Two of Minnesota's outstanding bluesmen sling out their guitars and lay down a smoking acoustic set.


1:15 • Justin Roth

Extraordinary guitar playing and beautifully written lyrics from this talented, young new folk artist.


2:00 • Annie Lawler with Wheel House

Fronted by Rochester native, Annie Lawler, Wheel House plays a nice blend of Americana and roots rock.


3:00 • Kevin Bowe & The Okema Prophets

Original playing style, gut-wrenching songwriting and diversity of roots and Americana influences make this band a perfect fit for Tree Frog.


4:00 • TREE FROG INTRODUCES - Alison Scott

An up-and-coming young talent with a one-in-a-million voice… soaring, agile, and deeply soulful.



5:00 • The Brothers Curtis

Curtis Marlatt (guitar/vocals) and Curtis Blake (harp/vocals) deliver bourbon-smooth, hot and sassy blues.


6:00 • Chester Bay

This could well be the last gig for these popular, young Rochester rockers before they head back to college.  You don't want to miss them!


7:00 • Prairie Creek Group

Enjoy a rare performance by this Southern Minnesota-based band that blends a tasty mix of rock, gospel, blues and bluegrass.


8:00 • Savage Aural Hotbed

Rhythmic barrages of pulsating, percussive music!  "...the sound of steel and rust, oil drums and hubcaps, screeches, sparks, grinders and gears finding new fury and energy... It's also fun, it makes you smile to see a man make music with an electric saw..."  — Scott Simon, Weekend Edition, National Public Radio


9:00 • Chris Duarte and Bluestone

Austin, Texas blues/rocker Chris Duarte does things with his six-string Strat that you just wouldn't think were possible.  This is lean and mean, ferocious guitar playing.  Tree Frog is proud to be part of Chris Duarte's national tour with the Japanese band – Bluestone.
