Local ‘grass band Pert Near Sandstone will be having their annual “Winter String Band Gathering” show at the Turf Club, in St Paul, on Feb 28, 2025.

We saw Pert Near Sandstone in December 2023 and wrote, “The members of Pert Near Sandstone are also from the Twin Cities suburbs, Brooklyn Park and Maple Grove. They first got into music by playing in heavy metal and ska bands. But as their music lessons progressed they too were caught by infectious music of bluegrass. And for almost twenty years they have been playing music that is impossible not to dance to, mainly because their percussionist, Andy Lambert, wears a pair of clogs. He was joined on stage with Nate Sipe on fiddle and mandolin, Kevin Knibel on banjo, J Lenz on guitar, Chris Forsberg on fiddle and Justin Bruhn on bass.”

Dig Deep and Katey Bellville to open on Friday.

Bronwyn Keith-Hynes and Feeding Leroy to open on Saturday.

Hey y’all! We are excited to announce our annual Winter String Band Gathering! The Turf Club in St Paul will be hosting us again this year for two nights with amazing guest artists to join, including the Clown Lounge stage and official after parties at The Midway Saloon!

Looking forward to welcoming Dig Deep and Katey Bellville on Friday; Saturday we welcome Bronwyn Keith-Hynes and Feeding Leroy!

The after party sets at the Midway Saloon by Barefoot Bluegrass on Fri and Potluck String Band on Sat!

We saw Enger on her very first tour in Oct 2022 and wrote, “Enger opened the all-age show with a crowd huddled in close as she sang with guitar in hand, starting off with “Me and You” followed by “Bad Guy.” She then sang a cover of Wheatus’ “Teenage Dirtbag” before someone in the audience asked when she would be releasing her first E.P. That was still a secret. She was just happy to be on her first tour, but she did sing a possible song from the anticipated release, “Neighborhood.””
