SUMMARY:The [LOVE] Life of a Showgirl: Ginger Does Gershwin
DESCRIPTION:Doors open at 5:00 PM for Dinner and Drink Service.\n\n\nVintage Glamour\, Jazz Cabaret\, Storytelling\nSlip into the sparkling world of Mistress Ginger. The Twin Cities’ beloved cabaret queen invites you on a joyful evening celebrating the timeless songs of George and Ira Gershwin. With Franco Holder at the piano\, Ginger weaves swoony ballads and swinging favorites like “Someone to Watch Over Me\,” “’S Wonderful\,” and “Fascinating Rhythm” into an evening of vintage glamour\, playful wit\, and heartfelt storytelling. Blending music with tales of memory\, imagination\, and a long-forgotten family legacy\, she creates a rich and intimate cabaret experience. Whether a devoted Gershwin fan or simply in search of a glamorous night out\, you’ll be swept away by an evening of music\, laughter\, and showgirl sparkle. \nMistress Ginger: Vocals \nFranco Holder: Piano \nMistress Ginger (she/her) is a Twin Cities–based cabaret artist known for her dynamic performances that blend song\, dance\, and theatrical storytelling. A devoted interpreter of the Great American Songbook\, she has created and performed tribute shows celebrating artists and composers such as Kurt Weill\, Rodgers & Hart\, Cole Porter\, and Liza Minnelli. Ginger has brought her signature sparkle to stages across the Twin Cities\, from the Bryant-Lake Bowl Theater to Crooners Supper Club. \n“Mistress Ginger is a cabaret singer who brings warmth and depth to a lyric\, and always lets the song shine through. She moves easily from the steam of a torch song to the campy wink of a double entendre – always while holding up the classic composers and lyricists she loves.” –Michael Whistler of Interact Center for the Arts\, for MPR News Art Hounds\, 2021\nmistressginger.com

SUMMARY:Big Daddy Kane at Dakota
DESCRIPTION:“one of the fiercest emcees of his era” – Albumism\n  \nBig Daddy Kane is one of hip-hop’s most lyrical\, diverse\, innovative\, trendsetting M.C.s. He is known by many attributes: Dark Gable\, Black Caesar and King Asiatic Nobody’s Equal\, but he is known to the world as Big Daddy Kane.  \nThis baritone voiced\, stylish dressing M.C. were the one to first bring the “playa” element to hip-hop. There\, Kane\, along with Bobby Brown and Michael Jordan\, put dark skin back on the map. Kane was the first rapper to ever hold two sold out shows at the world-famous Apollo Theater for women only. Also\, he appeared in magazines Right On and Source\, and let’s not forget the infamous Madonna Sex book. However\, in the words of the late Big Pun\, Kane is not only a playa\, he just crush a lot. Referring to his rapid fire\, metaphoric battle rap style.  \nKane’s influences are Muhammad Ali\, Marvin Gaye\, and his rap hero Grand Master Caz of the Cold Crush Brothers. However\, on stage the James Brown and the Famous Flames influence is evident as well. With several Gold albums\, Kane has endured over a long career giving us a deep catalogue of timeless music. \nAs a powerful figure in the rap game\, Kane has collaborated with many artists. Here\, he has worked with Kool G Rap\, Masta Ace and Craig G\, Public Enemy and Ice Cube. Also\, Heavy D\, UGK\, Busta Rhymes\, Patti LaBelle\, Quincy Jones and more. All of that along with a Grammy award makes Big Daddy Kane a hip-hop legend\, a member of the elite circle of rap royalty. Furthermore\, the 2005 VH1 Hip Hop Honors honored him during the broadcast. Additionally\, Kane continues to touch millions of fans worldwide. LONG LIVE THE KANE!!! \nRecommended for fans of Biz Markie\, Public Enemy\, EPMD and Erik B. & Rakim.

SUMMARY:THEM COULEE BOYS with Kiernan at Cedar Cultural Center
DESCRIPTION:Them Coulee Boys spent the past decade-plus establishing themselves as one of the Midwest’s premier purveyors of bluegrass and Americana.\n\n\nThe Cedar Presents \nTHEM COULEE BOYS with Kiernan\nFriday\, April 17\, 2026 / Doors: 7:00 PM / Show: 8:00 PM \nAll Ages \nStanding \nThis is a standing show with an open floor. To request seating or other access accommodations\, please go to our Access Page. \nFor Cedar presented shows\, online ticket sales typically end one hour before the door time\, and then\, based on availability\, tickets will be available at the door. Tickets purchased at the door will include a $1 Eventbrite fee. \n\n\nABOUT THIS SHOW\nThem Coulee Boys spent the past decade-plus establishing themselves as one of the Midwest’s premier purveyors of bluegrass and Americana. The Cedar is thrilled to welcome the Eau Claire-based band to our stage for the first time. \n\n\n\nTHEM COULEE BOYS\n“A rollicking blend of bluegrass\, folk\, and rock and roll” – Folk Alley  \nSoren Staff and Beau Janke—co-founders of folk/rock/Americana outfit Them Coulee Boys—met as camp counselors in northern Wisconsin in 2011. Their weekend workshopping of Avett Brothers and classic country tunes led to original songs and adding Soren’s brother Jens on mandolin\, Neil Krause on electric bass and Stas Hable on drums.  \nThe band’s name is a nod to the glacial melt-carved river valleys they call home\, known by early French fur trappers as coulees. Known for wild swings of emotion during sets\, it is not unusual to see fans in tears and minutes later dancing with abandon. The honesty and ability to talk and sing about the feelings and emotions that shape them has endeared them to a growing group of fans and friends.  \nOver the course of five albums\, the band has garnered international attention and earned press in Americana UK\, American Songwriter\, Ditty TV\, Folk Alley\, and The Bluegrass Situation. The band has played support to Trampled by Turtles\, Los Lobos\, Old Crow Medicine Show and Band of Heathens and No Depression writes of the recent release\, “a remarkably wide-ranging\, enduringly sympathetic examination of the human condition.”  \n2025 marks the release of No Fun In The Chrysalis\, an expansive new collection that finds the band picking up where their 2021 release\, Namesake\, left off. Goldmine writes “TCB present their material with the presence of War on Drugs and Band of Horses (“Mountains”)\, but with an intimacy at times of Rick Danko’s best work with The Band (‘I Am Not Sad’).” \nThe band’s co-founder\, Soren Staff\, wrote about his ongoing struggles with self-worth and anxiety on “I Am Not Sad\,” the first single from the album – “it was a tonic\, 4 minutes of musical therapy hearing this for the first time\,” claimed Americana UK. The band worked again with Grammy-winning producer Brian Joseph (Bon Iver\, Sufjan Stevens\, Humbird)\, whose production on Namesake shepherded the band beyond their folk-grass\, Americana roots to “go electric.” No Fun In The Chrysalis was recorded at The Hive in the band’s hometown of Eau Claire. The Bluegrass Situation calls it\, “Rambunctious\, playful\, and wonderfully inspired\, the recording is submerged in the mystery of transformation; the relentless blitz of change the most dominant theme of the songs.”  \nTo learn more about Them Coulee Boys: \n\nVisit their website here\n\n\n\n\nKiernan\nKiernan is the Minneapolis-based musical project of Laura Kiernan\, who is very excited to be playing with a band. Her indie folk tunes can be described as “sounds for when you’re feeding the pigeons.” In other words: soft\, silly\, spacious and best done with friends. She is joined by Nate LeBrun (Humbird\, Squinny) on drums\, Maddie Thies (anni xo\, Sister Species) on bass\, and Jared Johnson on guitar. The band released its first full length album in 2025\, after being named one of the Best New Bands by First Avenue that year. They’re excited to release more this year – they hope it nourishes your ears like a nice hunk of bread. \nTo learn more about Kiernan: \n\nVisit their Instagram page here

SUMMARY:Big Daddy Kane at Dakota
DESCRIPTION:“one of the fiercest emcees of his era” – Albumism\n  \nBig Daddy Kane is one of hip-hop’s most lyrical\, diverse\, innovative\, trendsetting M.C.s. He is known by many attributes: Dark Gable\, Black Caesar and King Asiatic Nobody’s Equal\, but he is known to the world as Big Daddy Kane.  \nThis baritone voiced\, stylish dressing M.C. were the one to first bring the “playa” element to hip-hop. There\, Kane\, along with Bobby Brown and Michael Jordan\, put dark skin back on the map. Kane was the first rapper to ever hold two sold out shows at the world-famous Apollo Theater for women only. Also\, he appeared in magazines Right On and Source\, and let’s not forget the infamous Madonna Sex book. However\, in the words of the late Big Pun\, Kane is not only a playa\, he just crush a lot. Referring to his rapid fire\, metaphoric battle rap style.  \nKane’s influences are Muhammad Ali\, Marvin Gaye\, and his rap hero Grand Master Caz of the Cold Crush Brothers. However\, on stage the James Brown and the Famous Flames influence is evident as well. With several Gold albums\, Kane has endured over a long career giving us a deep catalogue of timeless music. \nAs a powerful figure in the rap game\, Kane has collaborated with many artists. Here\, he has worked with Kool G Rap\, Masta Ace and Craig G\, Public Enemy and Ice Cube. Also\, Heavy D\, UGK\, Busta Rhymes\, Patti LaBelle\, Quincy Jones and more. All of that along with a Grammy award makes Big Daddy Kane a hip-hop legend\, a member of the elite circle of rap royalty. Furthermore\, the 2005 VH1 Hip Hop Honors honored him during the broadcast. Additionally\, Kane continues to touch millions of fans worldwide. LONG LIVE THE KANE!!! \nRecommended for fans of Biz Markie\, Public Enemy\, EPMD and Erik B. & Rakim.
