Lineup
Echoes from Iron Ore is a roots music project recorded in March 2021 at the edge of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness in northern Minnesota. Produced by Dave Simonett (Trampled by Turtles, Dead Man Winter), the album features a cast of local musicians and will help raise money and awareness for the protection of the BWCA. You can hear samples of the music online. The album is currently in post-production and will be available for purchase in September.
In the Potluck String Band, everyone brings something to the table, and, as often happens when creating something together, the result is more than the parts that made it. Call it joy, call it good old-fashioned fun, call it a bunch of strings strummed into a heart-opening chord.
With a nostalgic appreciation for old-time tunes, Katey Bellville inevitably pines for traditional sounds while composing contemporary songs. Raised both in the rolling hills of the country on horseback and deep in the heart of the city of Minneapolis, she has always stirred a brew of reverse passions. Dedicated listeners describe her original songs as ‘unforgettable’, blending modern pop sensibilities with fundamental bluegrass instrumentation.
