Masters of the fiddle, guitar, bass and drum — The Barley Jacks meld their divergent backgrounds of blues and bluegrass, classical and Celtic, R & B and bebop — and inspire each other to create something entirely new. Their first two albums, Either Side of Night and The Lighthouse, received great praise and audiences and critics alike eagerly await the release of their third album, Coming Down the Mountain. Virtuosity, magic, and a little danger combine to make every performance by The Barley Jacks unique. Audiences are struck with how much fun the band has when they perform. These Minnesota–based veterans of years in the musical trenches enjoy making music together so much that they sometimes giggle like little kids! The Barley Jacks are: Brian Wicklund – fiddle, mandolin, vocals Mike Cramer – guitar, vocals Joel Arpin – drums, percussion, banjo Kevin Rowe – bass, vocals “A double threat…This exceptional fiddler also proves to be an able composer and appealing singer. — Bluegrass Unlimited “Wicklund’s fiddling rings in pristine tonality… Superb originals.” — IndieMusic.com "Wonderful original tunes, gorgeous harmonies and a level of musicianship that few can dream of matching" — Inside Bluegrass “They raise the notch by performing innovative bluegrass, engaging the audience and making every performance unique.” — City Pages "The Barley Jacks are musicians' musicians playing seriously good music. If you can sit there and listen to these guys without smiling or tapping your toe, check your pulse.” — Ron Arsenault, Rock Bend Music Festival "The Barley Jacks had the crowd standing, clapping, dancing and shouting for almost the entire final hour. They are one finely tuned machine And absolute treat!" — Greg Schmitz, Sioux River Folk Festival "I LOVED the band... The Barley Jacks are dynamic, exciting and just plain fun!” — Mary Doub, Grey Fox Bluegrass Festival Winners of The Parkway Theater's 2019 Bluegrass Battle of the Band! Website // Facebook // Spotify // YouTube Based in Minneapolis, Honeybutter is the perfect match of sweetness and salt. These three pieces of toast—Zak Khan on guitar/production, Clara Wicklund on vocals/bass, and Andreas Fenner on vocals/keys—are multigrain babes: Acoustically-rooted, leavened by jazz and baked to a perfect Honeybutter golden brown. With the velvety romance of old cinema, they mix Brazilian guitar, honeyed vocals, and homemade percussion to make music that’s earth-bound and timeless. Their songs are dreamy and familiar: set in Minnesota’s harsh landscape, where the trio’s songwriting takes place, they’re warmth and sugar on a cold winter day. Eat them for breakfast.
