SUMMARY:Luray
DESCRIPTION:Luray creates strange and lovely bedfellows of sound – banjo layered over ambient sounds make up this once bluegrass-picking songwriter’s approach to making music. Luray’s debut album ‘The Wilder’ was called “beautifully lush” by Bob Boilen of NPR.’The Wilder’ and sophomore album\, ‘Dig’ was produced by brother\, Sean Carey (S.Carey). ‘Dig’ was released on 6131 Records in 2019 and was featured on the New York Times New Music Playlist. “My songs tell me what’s going on with me\, like my unconscious trying to get my attention\,” says Carey. Although she called Richmond\, Virginia home for a number of years\, Luray debuted as a band in Washington\, DC in 2012. Her music also has an inescapable imprint of her Wisconsin upbringing and collaboration with brothers\, Sean and Colin. Now\, a mother of two\, Shannon has returned home to Wisconsin\, and performs with husband\, Scott Burton and the occasional brother.This is their first time to The Hotel. Let’s show them some extra love.

SUMMARY:Max & the Fellow Travelers
DESCRIPTION:There’s a type of band that doesn’t just play songs — they collect them\, test-drive them\, stretch them\, condense them\, and send them back out however they’re meant to be. Max & The Fellow Travelers belong in that category.At the heart of it all is Max: armed with a six-string guitar\, a harmonica rack\, and a catalog of songs that feel lived-in – whether it’s a front porch blues or a sprawling piece of electric alchemy.Around Niemann’s songs\, the band builds a sound that can lean rustic or exploratory. Organ lines shimmer\, fiddle and pedal steel soar over guitars braided together in ragged\, interlockingpatterns just above a rhythm section that might swing\, shuffle\, or hit a wide-open drive. There’san emphasis on feel over flash\, and while any member might occasionally hit the gas\, thecollective momentum is held above all.Niemann’s lyrics hold tight to a timeless human experience— broken-down characters\, doubts\,responsibilities— but they’re carried by dynamic arrangements. Old-time chord changes collidewith art rock tension; a lone fiddle drifts over krautrock-inspired rhythms. It’s music that honorsthe lineage of American roots while insisting that there’s more roads for it to wander down.The Fellow Travelers aren’t trying to revive anything\, they’d rather chase the same spirit that animated their mentors – drawing from deep wells and crossing borders in the meantime.This show is part of a larger Midwest tour\, that comes ahead of their debut full-length album\, set to be released later this year. Their most recent release\, The Fellow Travelers\, was previously named one the Top Five Milwaukee EPs of 2024 by Milwaukee Record and one of the top releases of the month by Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.\nSince that release\, we’ve toured across the Midwest\, Southeast and PNW\, played Mile of Music Festival\, and have shared stages with established national and regional touring acts\, including Jeffrey Lewis\, A. Savage (Parquet Courts)\, Them Coulee Boys\, Dusk\, Ike Reilly\, Brennan Wedl and Brett Newski. This tour will take us across the Upper Midwest\, including shows in Milwaukee\, Madison\, Eau Claire\, Minneapolis\, Duluth\, Viroqua\, Dubuque\, Chicago and TREMPEALEAU! We ask for a minimum of $5 per adult listener. All money goes to the artists. Your support of live music keeps it flowing here. Thank you.

SUMMARY:Mike Munson April Residency
DESCRIPTION:Join Mike Munson each Sunday afternoon in April for a set of music\, a bite to eat and a drink next to the World Famous Mississippi River! There will be occasional guests (Mikkel Beckmen on the 12th and Kelley Smith on the 19th) and\, if the spring weather is inviting\, the music will move out to the deck. This is a “pass the hat” event\, a minimum of $6 a person is requested.\nMike Munson (Winona\, MN) is a renowned guitarist with an unmistakable sound. His prolific catalogue of original songs blends elements of indie folk\, roots\, jazz and improvised music. He has warmed the stage for legends like Mavis Staples\, traveled the country with Grammy nominee Jimmy “Duck” Holmes and been invited to perform at multiple international festivals. Munson’s long career as a solo touring musician has garnered a devoted fan base and a reputable place within the bustling Minnesota music scene.\nMunson’s song-writing leaves much to interpretation while his voicing on the guitar is distinctly recognizable after decades of pursuit of the perfect tone. He has been mentioned in reputable publications including Smithsonian\, Guitar Player and No Depression. His recordings are in regular rotation at both urban and rural radio stations throughout the region. He has also been invited to appear at the Vancouver Folk Music Festival\, the Montreal International Jazz Festival\, and the Waterfront Blues Festival\, proving that he belongs in multiple genres at an elite level.\nIn addition to a robust solo career\, the Mike Munson Trio is an incomparable rhythm section of three where Munson is joined by Nick Salisbury on bass and Lars-Erik Larson on drums. Together they explore Munson’s newest original compositions\, transportive jazz-like instrumentals and tragic Americana ballads\, exhibiting a symmetry that is easy on the ears. The group relishes live performance where the nightly set list will include familiar songs encountered from a new angle\, expanding or contracting arrangements depending on the inclination of the players. The Trio’s first full length album “Sometimes\, Not Always” is due out on Liatris Records in spring of 2026.\nIn 2024 Munson released his tenth full-length album “Perihelion Day” (Liatris Records). Using the moniker upup/OVER\, he continued to expand his creative playing field with this acoustic\, instrumental record. Inspired by time and space and the distance between humans and nature\, upup/OVER is an exploration of big issues through the lens of American primitive guitar. From galleries to house concerts to churches\, this sparse\, ambient music has mesmerized and entranced audiences.\nThe easily recognizable voice that Munson has developed can be traced back to the early years of his career when he had the privilege of recording the album “Rose Hill” at the Blue Front Cafe in Bentonia\, Mississippi. He had thrived under the direct and poignant mentorship of Jimmy “Duck” Holmes\, who invited him to join Blue Front Records. Having come face to face with the living history of blues music\, Munson’s sound is marked by a reverence for this historic southern art form\, which is laden with intricate finger picking and hypnotic rhythms. While no longer fitting squarely in the blues genre\, his regard for his teachers and their guidance continues to drive Munson’s many artistic pursuits.

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.

SUMMARY:Brothers Burn Mountain
DESCRIPTION:It has been nearly a year since we last hosted The Brothers. Show upfor what is certain to be a surreal AND fabulous experience. Brothers Burn Mountain\, Jesse and Ryan Dermody\, built a recording studio deep in the Minnesota woods years ago. They’ve tried to capture the sound of the howling north wind\, warm spring rain and evening crickets ever since. The guitar-drum duo has logged over to 2\,000 shows in 25 years of performing. Their 11th full-length album\, The Thrill and the Flame is described by the brothers as “our ode to resilience\, our mantra to joy\, our attempt at describing brief encounters with the divine in each of us.” Most recently they released a compilation of their favorite 20 songs.If you’ve not experienced The Brothers\, it is time. Come with an open heart and an open mind. They take listeners on a trip to another dimension. The first set builds you up for the beautifully organic\, organized chaos that occurs in the second set. Be here for the ride. Minimum $7 cover with all $$ going to the artists. Call 608 534 6898 for a room and make a weekend of it.

SUMMARY:Mike Munson April Residency
DESCRIPTION:Join Mike Munson each Sunday afternoon in April for a set of music\, a bite to eat and a drink next to the World Famous Mississippi River! There will be occasional guests (Mikkel Beckmen on the 12th and Kelley Smith on the 19th) and\, if the spring weather is inviting\, the music will move out to the deck. This is a “pass the hat” event\, a minimum of $6 a person is requested.\nMike Munson (Winona\, MN) is a renowned guitarist with an unmistakable sound. His prolific catalogue of original songs blends elements of indie folk\, roots\, jazz and improvised music. He has warmed the stage for legends like Mavis Staples\, traveled the country with Grammy nominee Jimmy “Duck” Holmes and been invited to perform at multiple international festivals. Munson’s long career as a solo touring musician has garnered a devoted fan base and a reputable place within the bustling Minnesota music scene.\nMunson’s song-writing leaves much to interpretation while his voicing on the guitar is distinctly recognizable after decades of pursuit of the perfect tone. He has been mentioned in reputable publications including Smithsonian\, Guitar Player and No Depression. His recordings are in regular rotation at both urban and rural radio stations throughout the region. He has also been invited to appear at the Vancouver Folk Music Festival\, the Montreal International Jazz Festival\, and the Waterfront Blues Festival\, proving that he belongs in multiple genres at an elite level.\nIn addition to a robust solo career\, the Mike Munson Trio is an incomparable rhythm section of three where Munson is joined by Nick Salisbury on bass and Lars-Erik Larson on drums. Together they explore Munson’s newest original compositions\, transportive jazz-like instrumentals and tragic Americana ballads\, exhibiting a symmetry that is easy on the ears. The group relishes live performance where the nightly set list will include familiar songs encountered from a new angle\, expanding or contracting arrangements depending on the inclination of the players. The Trio’s first full length album “Sometimes\, Not Always” is due out on Liatris Records in spring of 2026.\nIn 2024 Munson released his tenth full-length album “Perihelion Day” (Liatris Records). Using the moniker upup/OVER\, he continued to expand his creative playing field with this acoustic\, instrumental record. Inspired by time and space and the distance between humans and nature\, upup/OVER is an exploration of big issues through the lens of American primitive guitar. From galleries to house concerts to churches\, this sparse\, ambient music has mesmerized and entranced audiences.\nThe easily recognizable voice that Munson has developed can be traced back to the early years of his career when he had the privilege of recording the album “Rose Hill” at the Blue Front Cafe in Bentonia\, Mississippi. He had thrived under the direct and poignant mentorship of Jimmy “Duck” Holmes\, who invited him to join Blue Front Records. Having come face to face with the living history of blues music\, Munson’s sound is marked by a reverence for this historic southern art form\, which is laden with intricate finger picking and hypnotic rhythms. While no longer fitting squarely in the blues genre\, his regard for his teachers and their guidance continues to drive Munson’s many artistic pursuits.

SUMMARY:Wes Urbaniak & The Mountain Folk
DESCRIPTION:Wes Urbaniak is an amalgamation of songwriting\, storytelling and unique craftsmanship. His music is real\, honest\, bold and a little odd in the best way possible. The experiences of his life have created stories through his songs. He pushes the limits within the human mind while opening up the possibilities for the human spirit to explore what’s dwelling within. There are so many special things about this band and its music\, its artistic – through reclamation – endeavors\, and its call to persist through the hard things is exceptional. For instance\, even the instruments represent the story of the music. Each instrument contains original reclaimed Red Rocks Amphitheater bench redwood – *Wes is the Luthier behind the magical matter. You should watch the band try to explain it in its most simplest way. By listening to the music and thumbing through the story you’ll discover one of the most beautiful efforts whispered into song in these times while finding what’s good and holding care for the world we live in. It has been a bit of a destiny for Wes Urbaniak to bring his music through these instruments out into the world and then again back to Red Rocks…
