We can't wait to be back at the Aster Cafe. Come enjoy some Original Indie Americana music !Root River Jam
The band performs the original music of David Ross Wilson. Growing up the son of a veterinarian, he helped with work on many farms within the Root River region of MN. His mother taught David and his siblings to play piano and sing melody and harmony. His songwriting combines life's experience of love, longing, and learning with his love for music. His songs are a telling experience of his life in relationships gained and lost, social conscience and greater good, and good fun with people you love.
Root River Jam elevates musical improv through the fusion of blues, country, rock and americana music. Their music draws from the spark of creativity and individuality in each musician, producing songs and sounds that draw you in to their eclectic style!
Listeners instantly connect with expressive melodies, improv, and interaction. Recalling the "Jams" of the past and renewing the dreams of the future!
If you love "Americana Roots" music, like Mumford and Sons, Dave Matthews and Bonnie Raitt, then you'll love Root River Jam.
A country rock music band performing live shows!
