6:00pm–Tae Popour
8:00pm–Kyle Megna & Ross Caterton Duo (8:00pm)
No Cover! 21+

Kyle Megna and Ross Caterton are two strong song writers that play in the same band Kyle Megna and The Monsoons! Their “dark-indie-blues-folk-rock feel” is a magnetic force that’s ever-charged with surges of creativity and artistic experimentation. Fused with a healthy dose of spontaneity and humor, Kyle and Ross channel “can’t-get-enough energy” that’s good for the soul.

Tae Popour–Passionate, open-minded, and willing. As a young human, made of many ideas and drawn to the arts, those are accurate statements that briefly support my works’ entirety. I am Tae, a 19 year old musician that was born and raised in Green Bay, Wisconsin; driven by the hunger for growth, experimentation, and creation. With the help and networking of many people, and with my drive to make music and share it with the world, I have been on the journey of performing at a plethora of different venues. The people I have met, the things I have learned, and the motivation I have gained from these experiences have only driven me to have a hunger for more. I will dedicate my life to the creation of art, and utilize the power I have to be an agent of social change regardless of my state and place in life. Ultimately, I strive to make people feel and think, in the way their interpretation allows them.

We’ll kick things off around 5:30 with some traditional Irish bagpipes followed by Liv Mueller, Spatola and Brother O’ Brother!

6:00pm: LIV Mueller (of The Lovelies): “She’s an individualistic songwriter with a thing for haunting, minimalist guitar, which she multitracks with the reverb turned all the way up, building a creepy, majestic backdrop for her slowly unwinding anthems and a waltz or two.”

8:00pm:  Spatola is a family band from Silver Lake, WI and Milwaukee consisting of brothers Matt and Kyle Spatola, Matt’s son Benjamin, and father/grampa Mikey. Party Rock, Dance Rock, Rock & Roll genres. If you haven’t seen them yet, you need to!

10:30pm:  Brother O’ Brother! (a crowd favorite last summer during Mile of Music) began in late 2013, transitioning to a 2 piece in 2014 and has never looked back. Defying notions of what a 2 piece act should be, Brother O’ Brother’s live performance has been dubbed the best live performance in all of Indianapolis by multiple press outlets. Mix MC5 with early Black Keys and you’ve got it!

Blue Collar Blues Band was founded circa 1980 by Hoss Hosmer and Terry Mewhorter. The group has gone through many changes to personnel over the years but one thing has remained constant (We Love The Blues). The foundation of the group consisted of Guitar, Harmonica, Bass and Drums, with the addition of Saxophone from time to time. Current members: Hoss Hosmer on Guitar, Terry Mewhorter on Harmonica, Russ Allen on Drums, Aaron Pantol on Bass. Mike Meidl on Sax joins the group for most of the year but loves his winter Hiatus from time to time. Rick Maki (AKA Malletkat) tickles the Vibes since joining recently.  All members of the group have taken part in vocal duties.

Midwest-raised popfunksoulectro singer-songwriter. Professional tacky chain-wearer. Ivory James was born out of Prince-worship and bad luck in romance. A kinetic fusion of soul music, jazz piano, vintage synthesizers, wailing saxophone, clattering drum machines and one man’s cynicism and humor. Human connection is the mission, but I’ll settle for making you dance.

Lil’ Davy Max plays vintage Chicago blues the way they should be played, steeped in the Windy City tradition replete with guitar, harp and piano melding as one in the ensemble style that was the feature of the town’s blues in the 50s and 60s. He is also blessed with a tough blues voice that is ideally suited to his chosen genre.
