FREE SHOW AND WINTER CLOTHING DRIVE!

My Town My Music is thrilled to be bringing The Shackletons back to Rochester! This time around, the party is at Thesis Beer Project, and it’s a FREE show! Getting the night started are local favorites Hair of the Dog!

In addition, bring in gently used children’s winter clothing such as coats, hats and gloves, or snow pants, and we’ll donate them to the United Way to help children in our community keep warm. We thought it fitting to partner with Thesis and do our part to help put the good in their motto: “For the good and thirsty.”

In gratitude of your generosity and support, you’ll receive a half-pour of your choice of one of Thesis’s fantastic beers! If you don’t have access to any winter gear, that’s okay! We’ll have a donation jar available if you feel so inclined. All in all, it’ll be a celebration of live music, community and really great beer.

The Shackletons

The Shackletons

The Shackletons are a Twin Cities band mixing garage rock, punk, blues, and lyrical storytelling. Writing and playing songs rooted in the “Minnesota Sound.”

Colin Campbell (vocals/guitar), his older brother Cameron (bass), and younger brother Evan (Drums/miscellaneous screaming) are living double lives as an indie rock band as well as a blues band. The Shackletons have been generating buzz throughout the Twin Cities area and released their video for their hit “Minnesota Girls” on 89.3 The Current.

Hair of the Dog

Hair of the Dog

Hair of the Dog consists of Tracy Sonnier (acoustic guitar/vocals), Jeremy Jewell (electric guitar/vocals), Mike Nesbit (bass), Erik Henriksson (drums/electric guitar/vocals). The musicians are long-time fixtures on the local scene, both as solo performers and with other bands. In late 2014, they found themselves band-less and looking for new people to play with. They discovered through playing together that the blend of their individual styles made for a very interesting and eclectic sound. They unveiled this sound to the public at their first public appearance together on New Year’s Eve, December 31, 2014. A local music reviewer described the band as “vintage rock.” The show went over so well that they quickly were offered other gigs around town and have played just about every venue available since, including Kathy’s Pub, North Star Bar, The Half Barrel, The Tap House, The Doggery, Forager Brewery and many others, as well as local music festivals and block parties such as Eco Fest and Social Ice.

Each band member brings their own distinct musical taste and background to the picture which results in a very organic, rootsy style that is hard to pinpoint by using any specific genre name. During any given performance, the audience can expect to hear original music, ranging from rock’n’roll to funky dance numbers, folk to blues, bluegrass and many other styles.
