The Rupple Brothers are a psychedelic folk ensemble who combine a love for family, music, life, and improvisation to create a musical space unlike any other. Born unto song, brothers Evan and Cole, and an ever expanding cast of soul brothers, traverse the entire spectrum of sound and space; each being proficient in multiple ways of musical strangeness, while bringing a positive and powerful family message with their brand of wild folk. They have carved themselves out a respected place amongst the Michigan music scene, throwing their own annual grassroots festival Handmade Music Festival in their home of Chesaning, opening for bands like Chirp & Good Old War, opening up for White Denim at Ann Arbor's Sonic Lunch, and playing top tier venues and festivals across the state. They plan to carry their stories of song to the furthest reaches of the universe.

Kinda rock. Kinda folk. Kinda bluesy.
Rooted in original songwriting, our sound blends soulful rock and blues with big-hearted feels. The tenor guitar and saxophone give our songs a different texture, and the rhythm section keeps everything in check.
We tell honest stories as we zoom in, and out, on everyday truths, It's the sound you might get if a nineties chick grew up on Muscle Shoals.

The Stray is a music and arts cafe located in Grand Rapids, MI. In addition to our craft beer, coffee and wine selection, our kitchen will be open serving our full dinner menu until 9pm! Get here early to snag your favorite seat and grab a bite to eat before the show begins. Save money by getting discounted tickets online in advance.
The Stray curates a listening room style venue, where performers are front and center, not background entertainment. We frequently ask attendees to silence their phones and keep conversations low out of respect to performers and other audience members.
