Jam in the Stream

Minneapolis jamgrass quartet Buffalo Galaxy heads out to Colorado this week for four shows. The band has more shows booked in May, festival appearances booked in June and is working on an album. A single, including music video, is on track to be released in the next month.

N.J.-based Dogs in a Pile is on tour, with Midwest, Northeast and Colorado dates scheduled, as well as an opening slot for the Disco Biscuits at the Capitol Theater in Port Chester, N.Y. Minneapolis string band Buffalo Galaxy opens for them when they hit Minneapolis March 3.

It’s taken me a couple of days to recover from what was the first Ice Dance Music Festival at Heidel House Hotel & Conference Center in Green Lake, Wis.

Would do again.

Up here in the cold, frozen tundra, we’re always looking for fun shit to do come late winter that doesn’t necessarily involve plane tickets south (one day, Phish Mexico, one day).
