SUMMARY:The Arcadian Wild in Concert!
DESCRIPTION:The MEL welcomes the Arcadian Wild! \nWednesday\, April 30\, 2025 \nDoors- 7p \nShow- 7:30 P \nThe Cedar Cultural Center416 Cedar AvenueMinneapolis\, MN\, 55454 \nTickets here \n\n\n\nWelcome. It’s a word The Arcadian Wild hold dear\, an invitation to be present\, to let your guard down\, to share in something deep and divine and communal. \n“No matter who you are or where you come from\, that word just makes you breathe a little easier. When you feel welcome somewhere\, you can be yourself\, you can be open to whatever the space and the moment have to offer. That’s how we want people to experience these songs.” – The Arcadian Wild \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTHE ARCADIAN WILD\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Arcadian Wild is a four-piece indie folk/pop group from Nashville\, TN. Ledby songwriters Isaac Horn and Lincoln Mick and Bailey Warren on fiddle\, The Arcadian Wild confidently inhabits and explores an intersection of genre\, blending the traditional with the contemporary. Combining elements of progressive bluegrass\, folk\, and formal vocal music\, The Arcadian Wild offerup songs of invitation; calls to come and see\, to find refuge and rest\, to journey and wonder\, to laugh and cry\, to share joy and community and singalong.The band’s 2023 album Welcome marks the start of a captivating new chapter for the genre-bending trio\, who returned to the studio with renewed purpose and insight after devoting the last few years to a series of critically acclaimed singles and EPs. Like much of the band’s catalog\, the album blur the lines between chamber folk and progressive bluegrass\, drawing on everything from country and classical to pop and choral music with lush harmonies and dazzling fretwork\, but this time around there’s a rawness to the writing\, an embrace of candor and simplicity that cuts straight to the heart of things like never before. The result is perhaps the most arresting collection yet from a band known for its ability to stop listeners dead in their tracks\, an exquisitely beautiful celebration of community\, connection\, and the power of belonging that feels tailor-made for these challenging times. \nTo learn more about The Arcadian Wild:

SUMMARY:Bruce Cockburn: O Sun O Moon True North Tour
DESCRIPTION:The MEL welcomes Bruce Cockburn for two nights!\n\n\n\nMonday\, May 5 & Tuesday\, May 6\, 2025\n6:30 pm Doors // 7:30 pm Music\nAll Ages \n\n\n$65 ($79.63 w. taxes/fees) Premium Seating \n\n\n$55 ($68.07 w. taxes/fees) Preferred Reserved Seating \n\n\n$45 ($55.38 w. taxes/fees) Advance General Admission \n\n\n$50 ($58 w. taxes/fees) At The Door General Admission \n\n\nTicket purchases are final and non-refundable\nFacebook RSVP Monday\, May 5\nFacebook RSVP Tuesday\, May 6 \n\n\n\n\n\nMonday\, May 5 // BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\nTuesday\, May 6 // BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n \nRevered Canadian singer-songwriter and activist Bruce Cockburn returns to The Parkway for two nights in support of his latest album\, O Sun O Moon (True North)\, a collection of 12 new original songs that demonstrate the songwriting and guitar-playing skills that come from more than 55 years of artistry. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Time takes its toll\, but in my soul I’m on a roll\,” Bruce Cockburn sings on his latest studio album\, O Sun O Moon. Smart and catchy\, it’s the kind of memorable line—like “gotta kick at the darkness ’til it bleeds daylight” from his classic song “Lovers in a Dangerous Time”—the world has become used to hearing from Cockburn. \nAn inspired poet and exceptional guitarist\, the award-winning artist has spent his entire career kicking at the darkness with songs that tackle topics from politics and human rights to the environment and spirituality. And he’s not letting up. While other singer-songwriters his age are slowing down\, Cockburn\, on the eve of his 78th birthday\, has released a dozen new compositions as powerful as any he’s written. You could even say his songwriting is on a roll as well. \nExquisitely recorded in Nashville with his longtime producer\, Colin Linden\, O Sun O Moon exudes a newfound simplicity and clarity\, as Cockburn focuses on more spiritual than topical concerns this time around\, looking back and taking stock. “I think it’s a product of age to a certain extent\,” he explains\, “and seeing the approaching horizon.” Then\, lightening the tone\, he adds with a laugh: “I think these are exactly the kind of songs that an old guy writes.” \nOld or not\, Cockburn exhibits a palpable urgency on the opening “On a Roll\,” playing a driving resonator guitar with all the vigor of his veteran blues heroes. Similarly “To Keep the World We Know\,” one of the album’s few explicitly topical numbers\, bristles with Cockburn’s buzzing dulcimer as he and Inuk music star Susan Aglukark\, with whom he co-wrote the song\, sing about the growing threat of global warming. \n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMost of the songs strike gentler tones\, from the jazz sway of “Push Come to Shove” and the folky drone of “Into the Now” to the string-laden “Us All” and the hymn-like “Colin Went Down to the Water.” The whimsical “King of the Bolero\,” is unlike anything else on the album. Over a woozy clarinet and drunken\, New Orleans-style horns\, Cockburn paints a cartoon portrait of an oversized barroom musician “with a double chin all the way round his neck and a pot belly in the back.” Is it a dream or a figment of his imagination? In a gravelly voice\, Cockburn leaves us guessing as he sings “it’s moon high noon—I’m not in my bed.” \nAs with so many Cockburn albums\, the musicianship on O Sun O Moon is superb. Along with usual suspects Linden on guitar\, Janice Powers on keyboards and Gary Craig on drums\, the album features bassist Viktor Krauss\, drummer Chris Brown\, accordionist Jeff Taylor\, violinist Jenny Scheinman\, and multi-instrumentalist Jim Hoke. And Cockburn’s guest vocalists include Shawn Colvin and Buddy Miller as well as mellifluous singers Allison Russell\, Sarah Jarosz\, and Ann and Regina McCrary\, daughters of gospel great Rev. Samuel McCrary\, one of the founders of the Fairfield Four. The McCrary sisters shine brightest on the title track\, whose full name is “O Sun By Day O Moon By Night.” They sing the euphoric chorus of the song which relates\, during spoken verses\, a dream Cockburn had in which he makes the journey to heaven. “In the dream\, which was really powerful\,” says Cockburn\, “I see myself silhouetted on a ridge with this jar of blood pouring it on the soil. It wasn’t scary or disturbing at all.” Cockburn adds that he wrote the line “and if that sun and moon don’t shine” in the spirit of songs from the folk ballad “Mockingbird” to the blues number “Bo Diddley.” \n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe album’s jazzy closer\, “When You Arrive\,” finds Cockburn confessing to feeling his age when he sings “You’re limping like a three-legged canine\, backbone creaking like a cheap shoe.” But it’s clearly a song of acceptance\, about eventually slipping one’s mortal coil\, as he’s joined on the chorus by all of his guest vocalists\, singing “bells will ring when you arrive.” \nO Sun O Moon includes just one song without vocals\, “Haiku\,” a four-minute showcase of Cockburn’s fleet-fingered guitar work\, where his previous studio recording\, 2019’s Crowing Ignites\, was a collection of all instrumental numbers. In between those albums\, Cockburn\, the Order of Canada recipient\, 13-time Juno Award winner and Canadian Music Hall of Fame inductee released a 50th anniversary box set\, greatest hits package and rarities collection. \nNever one to rest on his laurels—even when\, as he notes\, “time takes its toll\,” Cockburn keeps finding and conquering new challenges\, never repeating himself in the process. “I just don’t want to ever keep doing the same thing\,” he says. “I’m grateful that I can keep on doing anything at this point\,” he adds. “My body doesn’t hold up and perform the way it once did.” \nThat may be so. But the legendary musician has just made his 38th studio album. And it may stand as one of his best of his long and storied career. \nWebsite // Facebook

SUMMARY:Strings and Heart! 7th Street Entry! September 6!
DESCRIPTION:98.5 HD3 theMEL.fm welcomes STRINGS & HEART! A band of 3 brothers…Angelo\, Michael and Eric Espinosa from Tuscon\, Arizona.  From Relevant Magazine: Strings & Heart isn’t interested in being boxed into a genre. When asked how they describe themselves\, they settle on “indie Christian”—a broad enough label to capture their ethos without limiting their sound. Their inspirations range from The Beatles and Nirvana to Switchfoot and The Beach Boys\, and their music reflects that range. Some songs lean into surf rock\, others veer toward indie pop. Their upcoming album\, Plastic Wine\, cements their identity in indie rock but the brothers remain open to evolution. \nStrings and Heart says “The reason we make music\, is for people to not only have an encounter with Jesus\, but to truly follow him. We feel our generation is a generation of passion\, looking for the truth. And so it excites us to share the Truth that we’ve encountered in Jesus through music.”

DESCRIPTION:Colony House lead singer\, Caleb Chapman\, reflects on a conversation with his dad concerning the notion that he’s not sure if their new album is the best thing they’ve ever done or just more of the same – “And wouldn’t that be great…” his dad replies. \nColony House’s fifth studio album\, 77\, is both a sonic departure and a spiritual arrival; a retro-futurist meditation on eternity\, nostalgia\, and the invisible threads that hold us together. Rooted in the aesthetics of ‘90s sound\, 77 finds the Franklin\, Tennessee-raised  four-piece—brothers Caleb and Will Chapman\, alongside Scott Mills and Parke Cottrell—reaching beyond what can be seen\, touched\, or even easily explained. \n“77\, the number\, means a lot of things to a lot of people\,” Caleb explains. “Biblically\, it’s the number of forgiveness. Spiritually\, it represents reassurance and provision. For us\, it’s become a symbol of eternal perspective—a lens to look at love\, loss\, and life with a little more intention and remind us that we are right where we’re meant to be.

SUMMARY:Lecrae Reconstruction Tour w/ Miles Minnick & Gio\, Oct 4!
DESCRIPTION:TheMEL.fm welcomes the Lecrae Reconstruction Tour with special guests Miles Minnick and Gio to the Uptown Theatre\, Saturday October 4 at 630pm. \nTickets available through Ticketmaster \nWhy see LeCrae?\n\n\nThought-Provoking Hip Hop From A Fresh Perspective\nAs modern pop culture purveys the pursuit of hedonism\, the mainstream success of a rapper who champions faith\, monogamy\, and spiritual well-being seems highly unlikely. Yet\, Christian rapper\, LeCrae has beaten the odds with multiple chart-topping albums and a Grammy award. \nThis multi-talented artist\, producer\, and actor rejects mainstream hip-hop’s gangsterism and antagonistic cliches yet never comes across as self-righteous. Polished production\, skillful use of rhythm and scansion\, and charismatic and athletic on-stage prowess means this is a show not to be missed.
