Welcome to Crooners Classics – every Wednesday will have a 5:30 PM show highlighting a classic act from music history! Wednesday’s Crooners Classics Eric Clapton Tribute Minnesota native and singer/songwriter Vinnie Rose, joined by his two longtime musical collaborators, Graydon Peterson (bass) and Adrian Suarez (drums + percussion), present the music of Eric Clapton. Vinnie Rose, vocals, guitarGraydon Peterson, bassAdrian Suarez, drums, percussion Vinnie Rose had only started on the guitar in the Spring of 1992 at 12 years old when just months later Eric Clapton’s now infamous MTV “Unplugged” performance was recorded, given regular airtime on MTV, and subsequently released on CD. The music had a lasting influence on Rose and became the bedrock for his passion for guitar, and served as a launching point for studying blues, classical and jazz guitar styles. Three decades later Vinnie returns to his early guitar roots with “Wonderful Tonight” showcasing both major hits and deep cuts of the indelible blues music of Eric Clapton. “Wonderful Tonight” will feature many songs from the 1992 Unplugged album as well as songs from Eric Clapton’s earlier stints with Cream, Blind Faith, Derek and the Dominos and songs from his subsequent solo albums. Vinnie, Graydon, and Adrian have joyfully created music together for over 20 years. Their focused, whimsical style makes for both a captivating, yet relaxed performance atmosphere. www.vinnierose.com

Patty and The Buttons preach the gospel of hot rhythm and happy feet. The band is similar to what you would find in a dance hall, cafe or nightclub anywhere around the world between 1920-1940. Despite being an ensemble firmly rooted in tradition, the band presents their music without being shackled to history. They play their own compositions as well as takes on music of the era. Patty’s eclectic taste gives the band diverse influences including New Orleans Traditional Jazz, Western Swing, Gypsy Melodies, Ragtime Piano Blues, Jug Music and 1930′s Popular Song. The core instrumentation of accordion, clarinet, guitar and bass is light and swift, but also melancholic and lush when it needs to be. Patty, mostly known as an accordionist doubles as the bands vocalist. His voice is inspired most by the old time hollers and croons from the dawn of recording once described as “Tom Waits meets Rudy Vallee.” More than anything, The Buttons is a group that is always enjoying themselves… Which seems to give audiences permission to do the same.

As noted by The Current, LeBlanc’s music is “so delicate, understated, and careful in its construction that you forget it’s taking apart how to live in such an unstable world while giving solace and a place for rest.” Luke’s music has received critical acclaim from numerous music magazines, including Bluegrass Situation, Americana Highways, and Glide Magazine, and he has shared the stage with the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Charlie Parr, and Grammy-Nominee Amythyst Kiah. His newest record, Places, was produced by Erik Koskinen and is his debut album for Real Phonic Records. Weeping Covenant Based in St. Paul, MN, The Weeping Covenant is headed by vocalist and songwriter, Michael Beatrez. Writing from a lyrically driven perspective, he generally touches on themes of hope, vulnerability, and love. Beatrez leans into his comfortable sweet spot by singing over soft fingerstyle guitar ballads and rock songs that drive with measured intensity. The music of The Weeping Covenant is rooted in Americana, with pop sensibilities akin to Jeremy Messersmith, piercing storytelling of Jason Isbell, and spacious, sustained vocals that melt into reverb like the ballads of John Denver. #gap-763065484 { padding-top: 30px; } #gap-913043683 { padding-top: 22px; } #image_1830565886 { width: 100%; } This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a Minnesota State Arts Board Operating Support grant, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund. #col-1009732513 > .col-inner { padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px; margin: 0px 0px -21px 0px; } #row-1880441089 > .col > .col-inner { padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px; } #col-1633065804 > .col-inner { margin: 0px 0px -27px 0px; } #row-739202678 > .col > .col-inner { padding: 0px 0px 15px 0px; }
