About Mudsong: For the past decade, mudsong has been crafting original, tale-length concerts that sound the heartache and hallelujah of our breaking human hearts. Thomas King said, "The truth about stories is that’s all we are." The truth about mudsong is songstories are all we are.

Original stories. Fresh songs. Crafted from the sloppy, raw mess of life? That's what we do. As musicians, we anticipate our evenings to open on the hearthfire of the bass guitar, shimmy through the saxophone, and linger over heart and soul. We've been blessed to be featured on Lakeland PBS’ Backroads and BSU’s Live.

If your head dips & nods like a descendant of Bill Withers, if your heart takes lyrical gut-punches from Dawes, or your hips wiggle to Stax’s Memphis Soul, you’ll enjoy the rollicking, sometimes reeling, ride that is an evening with mudsong.

About Forge North: Known for their distinctive, full-bodied harmonies and textured, soulful sound, Forge North invites you to dance like no one is watching every show they do.

Helmed by Charley Wagner, who soaks his hearty, rough-sawn mantras, in warm, soulful grit, the band finds itself exploring peace and personal growth atop a sound best described as what happened When Neko Case Met Eddie Vedder.

Tristan Schultz plants rows of bass lines atop Grant Raddatz’s anchoring groove. Matt Gutzmann tends to the faded art of the pedal steel while Garret Raddatz marinates with ambience and light from his keys.

As Charley Wagner puts it, they are, “Thankful to do. Thankful to have done. Thankful for the chance, to sit, stand, or run.”

(and dance, loves, just dance )
