Line up includes:
Robi Meyerson
Hailing from Richfield, acoustic musician Robi Meyerson has seemingly exploded with songs since moving to Duluth in 2000. She has performed at an eclectic array of venues, including coffee houses, bars, nursing homes and children’s events. With more than seven albums completed, including Christmas and children’s albums, it’s clear that her passion is making and sharing music. Recent funding from the Arrowhead Regional Arts Council supports her most recent effort, volume two of her children’s recordings, Little Treasures Sing and Dance.
Hidden Roots
Adam and John Sippola have been fixtures in the Duluth music scene since 1981. The father-and-son duo has been making music since Adam was 5 years old. As the experimental-folk duo Hidden Roots they connect their structured songs with rich, operatic vocals and improvised bridges. Adam also performs solo and with his rock band, Cold Current.
Rachael Kilgour
Rachael Kilgour sings about love, heartache, family and social justice with determination and charm. Born and raised in Duluth, she is a multi-instrumentalist who has toured throughout the Midwest as a backup singer and violinist for Catie Curtis. Kilgour released her self-titled debut CD in December 2008. Produced by Haley Bonar, the album has received considerable radio play in the region. Kilgour will be joined on stage by backup vocalist Adeline Wright and bassist Matt Mobley.
