For more than 30 years, Trailer Trash has been a cornerstone of the Twin Cities roots music scene, blending classic country, honky tonk, swing, and American roots music into one unforgettable live show. Known for their legendary residency at Lee’s Liquor Lounge and their infectious, good-time energy, the band has earned a reputation as Minnesota’s premier honky tonk outfit. Over the years they’ve racked up multiple Minnesota Music Awards, released six albums, appeared in films, and become the soundtrack to countless dance floors, celebrations, and late-night barroom memories across the Midwest.

 

Jack Knife & The Sharps, led by the exceptional vintage guitar playing of Rick Hollister, is one of the leading rockabilly bands playing in Minnesota today. Formed in 1984, Hollister is joined by long-time producer and engineer, Jeff Bjork on drums and Scotty Christianson on upright bass. Rockabilly and roots music fans enjoy Rick Hollister’s precise, deep-toned guitar sounds and right-on-the-money vocals and find the relentless rhythms from the bass and drums to be irresistible. Jack Knife & The Sharps’ primary musical style is rockabilly, although they blend different musical styles with ease and artistry. Country, blues, swing, and surf sounds all come together in one of the most spirited sets of good-time, rockin’ music you will hear. Hollister’s original songs are also standouts that could have been written 40 years ago and when the band plays the classics, they do it with a unique upbeat style that can’t help but get under your skin. The group roars onto the stage like a custom-built vintage car with all the chrome and flash and no muffler. Their music is fast, loud, fun and definitely made for dancing. Retro rockers, rockabilly fans, and swing dancers count them as one of their favorite dance bands in the Upper Midwest.
