Thanks, Studio Winery + Geneva Lake Distilling; we’ll return there May 25
We had a huge crowd all night Feb. 24 for our gig at the Studio Winery + Geneva Lake Distilling. Thanks to Doug for inviting us back to perform from 5-9 p.m. Saturday, May 25. Until then, we’ll be working on some new material and hope to announce a few more dates for summer performances, so stay tuned.
Next Up: Studio Winery
Our 11th year together as a band begins Saturday, Feb. 24, when we take the stage at 5 p.m. at the Studio Winery + Geneva Lake Distilling in Lake Geneva. We’re looking forward to another fun year together with performances, in addition to two more later this year at Studio Winery, already scheduled at the Wisconsin State Fair and the baaree in Thiensville. We’re hoping to add performances at Summerfest and Bastille Days, so stay tuned. We’re so grateful to have a fan base that supports our music.
Here’s a toast to 2023, and a second WAMI nomination
The band wishes all our fans a Happy New Year and thanks those who supported us and live music in 2023. We celebrated our 10th year as a band in style, performing at venues from Summerfest’s largest side stage and downtown Milwaukee’s largest street festival to the smaller confines of Kochanski’s Concertina Bar in Milwaukee and the baaree in downtown Thiensville. We ended the year receiving a nomination from the Wisconsin Area Music Industry for performer of the year. We are so grateful and honored to have been nominated two years in a row for WAMI awards. Stay tuned for updates to our 2024 schedule, including a date in Lake Geneva later in February.
A scary night coming to Studio Winery
Happy Halloween! The band plans to be scary good while playing its original hits along with material from various female vocalists and bands from the Beatles to Led Zeppelin and everything in-between from 5-9 p.m. Oct. 28 at Studio Winery + Geneva Lake Distilling, 401 E. Sheridan Springs Road, Lake Geneva. Bring your scariest costume or come as you are and enjoy an evening of live music and beverages from wine to cocktails, all locally made.
Thanks, State Fair. Up next: Studio Winery
We wrapped up our two-day annual residency at the Wisconsin State Fair with a large crowd and some unexpected guests, including the legendary Larry Lynne. Thanks to Major Goolsby’s for playing host and treating us so well. And thanks to all our fans who enjoyed two days of beautiful weather to support live music. Next up: a return engagement from 5-9 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 9, at the Studio Winery + Geneva Lake Distilling in Lake Geneva.

Thanks, Kochanski’s and Bastille Days; next up: State Fair
We had a great time playing the historic Kochanski’s Bar on Milwaukee’s South Side and our return engagement at the incredible Bastille Days. Next up: Major Goolsby’s Heartland Stage at the Wisconsin State Fair, where we’ll be performing from noon to 3 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 5, and Sunday, Aug. 6. We’ll be playing three full sets of great music, from our original tunes to material from the Beatles to the Allman Brothers to Linda Ronstadt and everything in-between. Hope to see you there!

Thanks, Kochanski’s. Next Up: Bastille Days
The band will be returning to the Beaux Arts Stage at Bastille Days for a free two-hour show beginning at 4 p.m. Saturday, July 15. The four-day Bastille Days, held at Cathedral Square, is Milwaukee’s largest street festival and one of the oldest French gatherings in the nation. We may get our largest crowd because Bastille Days is being held on the same weekend as Harleyfest. So our set list will include songs not only for the music connoisseur, but also for the party-hardy Harley riders.

Thanks, Summerfest! Next: Kochanski’s
How best to describe our show June 23 at the BMO Harris Pavilion at Summerfest? One hour of music, one ton of fun. After five appearances at the US Cellular Connection Stage, we were fortunate to be booked onto the plush BMO Harris Pavilion stage. What a fantastic venue, and what a great crowd. Next up: July 2 outdoors at Kochanski’s Concertina Beer Hall, on S. 37th St. just south of Burnham Ave. on Milwaukee’s South Side. First chord will be struck at 2 p.m., with another band appearing at 3:15. Admission is $10.
