blues/soul singer/songwriter who pours out her heart with every note. Her songwriting ranges from honest emotion and earthly imagery to the raucousness of horses, strippers and whiskey. Myhre possesses the ability to hypnotize listeners by creating sympathy between her voice and guitar that resonates a true American and northern Minnesota spirit. For this show, she is backed by her band, The Jebberhooch, a mixture of musicians from different bands. July 1 - the 4onthefloor The 4ontheFloor will be back! Joining together in the name of fun and joy, the 4onthefloor bring their welloiled, high-octane, rock ’n roll to the world. The furious delivery ebbs and flows with sing-a-long anthems and breakdowns to soaring guitar solos and unbridled full-bore rock. Camaraderie is a common theme. Hailing from Minnesota, they take the heavy road route, grooving in the tracks of road musicians
before them. Following in the footsteps of some of the band’s influences, being on the road plays a large role in the writing. Gabriel Douglas writes about experiences, failures, successes and notso-much the what-could-have beens. July 8 - Pat Lenertz Band Moorhead native Pat Lenertz is a veteran of the Fargo/Moorhead scene with 15 years experience playing, singing and fronting several bands. Whether it’s onstage at The Hub belting out Bob Marley covers backed by a nine-piece reggae tribute act or strapping on an acoustic and kicking off the HPR Best Bets winning open mic night at the Sidestreet Bar and Grille, he is comfortable commanding the attention of any space. Drawing on his love for Americana and roots musicians like Willie Nelson, Wilson Pickett, Bill Withers, John Prine and Bob Dylan, Lenertz found the perfect band of brothers to help tell his musical stories.
