SUMMARY:Cedar County Cobras
DESCRIPTION:Cedar County Cobras arrive with an upright bass\, foot drum\, and several guitars to play American Roots & Blues music from the last century. The music takes on an “old time” blues feel that would most likely be found in a juke-joint down a gravel road in rural Iowa. They have played over 800 shows at venues from the small-town dive bar to the festival stage. In 2023\, the duo released their debut album “Homesick Blues” which has been charting worldwide and placed in the top acoustic blues records of 2024. They are the winners of the solo/duo category for the Iowa Blues Challenge and recently placed as semi-finalists at the 2025 International Blues Festival in Memphis.This is their FIRST TIME to the Hotel. We’re excited!!The hat will be passed. Bring cash. Let’s keep these people put gas in the car and strings on the guitar (and bass). We ask for a $5 minimum per adult listener.Thank you for supporting live music.

SUMMARY:Howard Luedtke & Dave Rogers Birthday Bash
DESCRIPTION:When these guys team up\, it’s more than just a party—it’s a celebration of blues. Connect with old friends and make a few new ones.As always\, we are sure there will be ‘special’ musical guests at this annual blowout.We welcome back Amy and Billy of The Garden of Eatin’ Blues Band. Get here early to claim a spot for your chair or blanket (leave the cement area in front of the stage open for dancin’) and don’t miss a minute of it.This is the kind of night that reminds us how music has the power to bring us all together.Tickets are $14 advance/$20 day of show and available for cash during Hotel operating hours.\nMORE ABOUT THE BIRTHDAY BOYSHoward ‘Guitar’ Luedtke is a staple in the Blues scene and with good reason. He has 40 plus years of playing guitar in both the Midwest and on the international stage.In 1964\, Howard got his first guitar and today\, when he picks up his Les Paul\, he will transport you into the world of the blues. He’s incredibly talented and his passion for what he does is clear.Howard can be seen performing solo\, as a duo with his wife Deb Klossner on bass\, or with his full band Blue Max\, that includes a talented line up of drummers.Howard’s guitar playing is hard\, fast and immaculate. He’s truly one of those players who lives in harmony with his instrument. That connection only comes with experience and an undying need to share this sound\, which runs deep in your soul. ~ Scott MorfittDave Rogers has not been able to get enough of the guitar since he was 12. He watched his older brother in a band and was hooked from that point on. He’s played in a variety of bands\, but remains firmly rooted in the area with his family and business (Dave’s Guitar Shop). His favorite guitar artist of all time is Clapton. This is evident in every performance as he seamlessly moves from one Clapton riff to another. Rogers goes into another world through his playing and you may too. There are no wrong notes from his 50’s Strat with the maple fingerboard.Grammy-winning drummer and percussionist Terry Nirva along with bass players Mark Denny and Magic Deb complete the band.\nMORE ABOUT THE OPENERThe Garden of Eatin’ Blues Band will get you in the groove with their bluesy vibe\, sprinkled with some classic rock and 80’s pop that is sure to keep your toes tapping!!!Thank you Anita’s Gig Pics for the Howard\, Dave & Deb photos!\n\nThis is a chance to celebrate two individuals who have poured their heart and soul into their craft. And\, it’s a reminder to appreciate the people who make life richer\, whether through their talent\, their kindness\, or simply their presence.\nNights like these—filled with laughter\, connection\, and the magic of live music—are what it’s all about.\nOTHER STUFFOnly food and drink purchased at The Hotel may be consumed at The Hotel.

SUMMARY:Sophie Coyote
DESCRIPTION:Sophie Coyote is a singer/songwriter from the small mid-western town of Waddams Grove\, Illinois. Born in an old farm house surrounded by rolling fields. She was raised on a broad range of musical influences that includeclassic rock & roll\, honky-tonk country and a bit of blues. This open mind of influence has led to a songwriting style that is reminiscent of the raw and honest age of music; lyrically driven with interesting stories\, unique twists and word-play.\nIn March of 2022 she released a live recorded E.P. titled “Indigo Child” featuring 6 of her original songs. The E.P. was recorded on a small microphone with raw\, single-take acoustic tracks showcasing the bare-bones of Sophie’s songwriting talents as well as her unique vocal stylings. The E.P. propelled her into the regional music scene with a full schedule of performance dates around and throughout the Midwest.Grand Rapids\, MI is where Sophie’s first full production song titled\, “Venom” came to fruition. Showcasing producer Mark Lavengood’s talent on guitar\, bass\, mandolin & piano. The haunting fiddle was performed by Nashville\, TN country artist Lillie Mae. Drums by Cassady Feasby of the Dierks Bentely band. With producer Misa Arriaga\, Sophie went on to make her recently released single “Coyote Queen.” Featuring six talented Nashville musicians\, as well as some howling coyotes.This is her first time here at The Hotel. Let’s give her a nice warm welcome! We kindly ask for a minimum of $5 per adult listener. Show will be outside weather permitting.

SUMMARY:Musical Chairs
DESCRIPTION:Our monthly Musical Chairs is a showcase for original music created and curated by Tim Eddy. This month it features Kris Risch\, James ‘Mudkat’ Grant and Hans Reimer.Risch is a local singer songwriter that plays music because it brings him joy. He has played in a few collaborations including The Pinch Hitters and with the recently formed Substitutes. He also plays in a duo with his wife Lisa. He has published one CD and was a winner of the Larryfest songwriters competition in 2017. He is a founding member and regular participant of the Organic Music Cooperative which gathers every other Tuesday at the Historic Trempealeau Hotel. He is especially excited to join his OMC comrades\, James “Mudkat” Grant and Hansel Reimer in this Saturday’s Songwriter Showcase at the Hotel. “I’ve played with these guys a bunch over the Years at the OMC and greatly respect and enjoy the passion they bring to their music. It will be a treat to share the stage with these two. ” Hope to see some old friends and meet some new ones too.James “Mudkat” Grant began listening to rock n roll\, classical\, and country music at an early age. He joined his first band in high school after seeing the Beatles on TV\, extending it through college years playing hundreds and hundreds of gigs. Having the opportunity to open for the Flying Burrito Brothers in May\, 1970\, changed their repertoire and musical direction. The band\, now called North Country\, moved to Denver\, where they opened for the comedian Steve Martin\, but within a year the band had broken up\, so Grant moved into doing solo work with vocal\, guitar and harmonica.Recording his first CD in ’95\, “Not the Only World”\, which was nominated for a Minnesota Music Award\, James continued writing and performing in the upper midwest with occasional forays with other musicians. “This Town”\, an EP\, with This Town \, the title cut\, Southern View\, Distant Light\, and Something New\, was recorded in 2013\, with other songs waiting for studio production.James Grant has been heavily influenced in his writing style by Sting\, Neil Young\, Dylan\, James Taylor and others\, along with environmental and social justice issues. His passion for writing and performing\, with guitar and vocal study\, has continued to this day.This very early member of the Organic Music Cooperative delivers reflective originals and digs deep for obscure tracks that need to be shared and brought back to life.Hans Reimer was born right here in Trempealeau county\, was homeschooled and started playing music at a very young age. The family band began first with his parents then later with his siblings. They even backpacked through Europe\, playing music and writing songs for two months. Now\, 20 years later he is still writing songs and playing music. ‘I love music. I love life\, I love jamming and connecting with people through music. I probably have written hundreds of songs but I can only remember the good ones and I am excited to share them with you!!’These three will take turns playing their originals. No cover. The hat will be passed. Thank you for your support of live music!

SUMMARY:Marques Morel
DESCRIPTION:Marques Morel is an American songwriter/story-teller\, midwestern-twanger/folksinger\, guitar-thumper/harmonica wailer\, street-performer/wandering troubadour\, steadfast woodcutter/migrant worker\, a father\, a son\, and a friend to all.“Taking his cue from the likes of Townes Van Zandt\, Woody Guthrie\, Hank Williams\, and any number of other tattered troubadours\, (Marques Morel) sounds like a cross between Johnny Cash\, Bob Seger\, and the late John Stewart (solo\, The Kingston Trio) reciting ragged tales of the American West and its once-former glories\,” writes Lee Zimmerman of The Alternate Root.Originally from the Illinois corn country\, he has performed just about anywhere that anybody would listen: big city street corners around the world\, county fairs\, folk festivals\, hole in the wall taverns/divebars/honky tonks\, cabin porches\, backyard barbeques\, listening rooms\, theatres large and small\, and beside many campfires and woodstoves amongst the ghosts of his songwriter heroes.Marques has had the honor of sharing stages with some of the great songsters of our time- Charlie Parr\, Arlo McKinley\, Joe Pug\, Willy Tea Taylor\, Riley Downing\, Billy Don Burns\, Pokey LaFarge\, and Chicago Farmer to name a few of his favorites.Marques has released five original albums to date: “Live and Raw in Rockford” (2013) and “Searching for America” (2014) were recorded bare bones with passion before his hiatus from solo work for about 6 years. In 2021 Morel returned to the studio for “Trail of The Ghost” and in 2022 he released his first full band record- “Wind and Rain.”In June of 2024 Morel released “Tales and Tellings\,” his first work to earn widespread critical acclaim. “Tales and Tellings” was recorded at Bomb Shelter studio in Nashville\, TN and produced by Andrija Tokic (producer of The Deslondes\, John R. Miller\, Ian Noe\, Luke Bell\, etc.). In response to the record\, NO DEPRESSION stated- “There’s no filler here. Every song on ‘Tales and Tellings’ is packed with plenty of ear candy\, revealing Morel’s wry wit that never turns smarmy. It’s delivered from the heart\, dusty and roadworn\, but undaunted.”Known for his intense and infectious energy on stage and his gritty and honest songwriting and delivery\, Marques Morel has been described by his fans as “raw and rustic” and “guts on the floor\,” sometimes abandoning the mic and guitar cable to march into the crowd and lead a raucous bar or a sterile listening room into a grand finale of singalongs and stompalongs. He currently plays around 150 shows a year and will be found performing either as a one man show accompanied by his old guitar\, harmonica on the rack\, and makeshift kick drum\, or with his dynamic and spirited band\, The Midnight Wind.We ask for a minimum of $6 per adult listener for the artists-the price of a pint.First two photos by Cozette Morel. Third photo stamped by the photographer.

SUMMARY:Eli Gardiner
DESCRIPTION:Soulful\, weathered Americana for fans of Jason Isbell\, John Moreland & Springsteen’s Nebraska side. Honest songs\, close up.Eli Gardiner writes songs that feel weathered\, human\, and wide open — the kind of Americana that carries the dust of old roads\, the ache of real life\, and the quiet hope that keeps people moving.Born and raised in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula and now based in Minneapolis\, Gardiner blends Americana\, heartland rock\, and folk into songs that are intimate\, soulful\, and deeply rooted in story. His music has drawn comparisons to the emotional grit of John Moreland\, Jason Isbell\, and Chris Knight\, while still carving out a voice that is unmistakably his own.Gardiner’s latest EP\, Sliver\, released in March 2026\, follows his haunting 2023 album Transient — a hushed\, home-recorded collection inspired in part by the stark storytelling of Springsteen’s Nebraska. His songs move between the personal and the political\, the lonely and the communal\, always circling back to what it means to be human\, to endure\, and to keep reaching for connection.Music in Minnesota called him “relatable\, soulful\, and honest\,” while Americana UK praised his voice as “full of character and soul.” Whether solo\, acoustic\, or backed by a full band\, Eli Gardiner brings the kind of songwriting that belongs in a listening room — raw enough to feel immediate\, crafted enough to stay with you long after the last note fades.
