Mason Jennings at Sacred Heart
Minnesota troubadour Mason Jennings returns performing old favorites and work from his new album "Dark Wings."
"I love song craft," says Mason Jennings, a folksinger who has spent over two decades honing his craft both on stage and in the studio. "A song is like a boat on the water, and you're trying to make it float with as few pieces as possible. If you do it right, a song can be very healing."
For Jennings, songwriting has always been about a personal connection, both with his audience and himself. He's known for an unpretentious, emotive approach to folk music, combining introspective lyrics with acoustic melodies. His work has drawn comparisons to genre greats, including Nick Drake, John Fahey, and Tom Waits. But Jennings' sound is distinctly his own, one that blends vulnerability with strength, simplicity with complexity.
That style comes through on his new record: "Dark Wings." His 18th studio album, the record finds Jennings moving between raw honesty about childhood scars, dark thoughts, spiritual questioning and a stubborn belief in the power of love.
Duluth-based singer-songwriter and bandleader Breanne Marie of Breanne Marie & The Front Porch Sinners will open with a solo set.
Advance E-tickets are available for $25 (plus $3.52 in fees) on Eventbrite. Paper tickets will be available for $25 at Zenith Bookstore in West Duluth (plus $1 handling fee) and at Globe News in Superior (cash only). Tickets will be available at the door for $30 while supply lasts. Doors at 6:30. Music at 7:30.

Breanne Marie and the Front Porch Sinners return to Minneapolis for the first time in three years with a new album and some very special guests OPNR and Dead North. Recorded at Sparta Sound, produced by Jillian Rae, mixed and mastered at Clubhouse Studios in St Paul with Eric Martin, “Two Trees” is the 4th album from this Duluth-based Americana band.
---
Breanne Marie & The Front Porch Sinners deliver high-energy Americana jams and soulfully sentimental ballads. Featuring singer/songwriter and sometimes trumpeter Breanne Marie on lead vocals, the band blends traditional pedal steel and fiddle with guitar lines, driving bass and drums which Americana Highways described as “a brilliant blend of 90s indie and country.”
--
OPNR is the latest project from Minnesota songwriter Dave Mehling. A musical celebration of all things Americana with a tinge of psychedelic experimentation. Bassist Beau Jeffrey, Guitarist Eric Carlson (Val Son, Big Lake) and Drummer Scott McPherson (Elliot Smith, She & Him) turn gentle ruminations on daily life into dense sonic explorations. For fans of Bill Calahan, Sam Phillips and Gastr Del Sol.
--
Dead North is a progressive bluegrass band from the northwoods of Michigan’s Keweenaw Peninsula. Now residing in Minneapolis, the band is composed of Luke Pascot (guitar, vocals, banjo) and Kora Melia (mandolin, fiddle, vocals). Together, they push the limits of the bluegrass genre with bold experimentation while still maintaining a high level of respect for tradition. Their sound elegantly mixes bluegrass with elements of jazz, rock, country, funk, and so much more. Influenced by the likes of Tony Rice, Billy Strings, David Grisman, etc., Dead North is a must see for any fans of progressive acoustic music.

Homegrown: Friday Night at The Moorish Room
The Moorish Room by Blackwoods is one floor below the Greysolon Ballroom where your cousin maybe got married that one time. Featured in the 1994 major motion picture "Iron Will," the stunning Moorish Room is rumored to have a haunted bar. At least that's what my friend told me in college so it's gotta be true. There's a beautiful dance floor space right by the stage but maybe you're wondering about chairs. I believe there were some chairs in there last year to sit on. We'll ask the venue 'bout that because, oh my, chairs are so great after 9:30 pm the week of Homegrown, am I right?
