Pianist Ari Nahum has been collaborating with bassist Jim Pacala for the past 17 years and will be joined by the sensitive\, prominent Twin Cities drummer Ken Goldman.\n—The Jazzologists are a jazz ensemble born in the halls of Regions Hospital in Saint Paul\, Minnesota\, where five physicians first came together to play music in the lobby during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic. With the hospital eerily quiet amid shutdowns\, Stephen Jackson (trumpet)\, Ashish Mahajan (saxophone)\, Ari Nahum (piano)\, Judson Pollock (bass)\, and Scott Loewenstein (drums) discovered that playing together offered a creative outlet they sorely needed. What began as informal sessions to fill the silence has since evolved into a serious musical collaboration\, with the group deepening their commitment to the craft.

Blending classic rock\, indie\, and alternative influences\, they play a mix of covers and original material\, focusing on strong live energy and evolving songwriting. \n\n \nSince starting to perform in January\, they’ve played venues across Minneapolis and St. Paul\, quickly building a growing local following. The band plans to record their first demos this summer\, including original tracks like Juicy Lucyand Minnesota Lakes\, which lean into symbolic and metaphorical storytelling. \n\n \nStill early in their run\, Tainted Canyon is focused on developing their sound and establishing themselves in the local scene.\n\n\n—YES WE ARE is a genre-blending band creating songs that embrace the full spectrum of the human experience. The band is fronted by vocalist Dylan Bode and multi-instrumentalist Reed Knutsen\, who work hand in hand to write and compose the music and lyrics. \n\n \nThe music they create channels different perspectives and emotions\, acknowledging all that we are as individuals – yes we are kind\, yes we are mean\, yes we are happy\, yes we are sad\, we can be helpful\, and we can also hurt each other. \n\n \nTheir debut EP\, Into This Garden\, released on November 14\, 2025. It’s an initial statement from the band that their music creates a place where everybody is welcome. The album uses the metaphors of garden themes to take the listener along a path of important personal moments to reach a place of belonging.

With influences ranging from Fats Domino and the Preservation Hall Jazz Band to Aretha Franklin and Tom Waits\, the band is converting audiences one show at a time\, from Vancouver to Miami and across Europe.\n \nMuch like the music\, the story spurns era\, expectation\, and classification. The often unbelievable\, sometimes harrowing\, and wholly inspiring journey of Davina Sowers gave birth to her eponymous band Davina and The Vagabonds in 2004. As the tale goes\, she grew up in the economically depressed Allegheny town of Altoona\, PA\, which she now describes as “awesome in the industrial era\, but horrible for high school.” She was adopted by her much older stepfather when he was in his 80s; he passed away when she was just 13. Through him and his Edison phonograph\, she first heard The Ink Spots\, Sidney Bechet\, Louis Armstrong and Louis Prima\, Sister Rosetta Tharpe\, and many others. “Great man. He was my angel and still is\,” she says.\n \nOn her own\, she vividly recalls hours in front of the record player where she religiously spun Led Zeppelin\, Black Sabbath\, and Simon and Garfunkel records belonging to her folk singer mom.\n \nTo this day\, Davina still refers to music as “my first and eternal love.” Despite early dalliances with classical piano and guitar\, she developed a heavy drug habit in high school\, which morphed into heroin dependency\, left her homeless\, sent her in and out of jail\, and brought on all manner of trouble. Kicking dope on the streets\, she “got clean\, started the band\, and worked [her] ass off every day since.”\n \nDavina and the Vagabonds shine every time they play. To date\, they’ve performed in forty-five states\, twelve European countries\, and two Canadian provinces. Not to mention\, they’ve earned feverish acclaim from the Chicago Tribune\, NPR\, and more in addition to performing on BBC’s international favorite late-night program Later… With Jools Holland and appearing on PBS’s Bluegrass Underground.\n \n“Davina and the Vagabonds combat heartache with sugar and sass.”  DOWNBEAT MAGAZINE\n\n \n\nThank you to our sponsors\, partners\, & neighbors: \n\n\nSummit Brewing • RKR Ganja Beverages  • Tito’s Handmade Vodka • Jameson Irish Whiskey  • High Noon • Lucky One Lemonade • Nobool Presents • The Zen Arcade  • Longfellow Rising • Lake Street Council • KFAI 90.3FM • Firehouse Perfroming Arts Center • Moon Palace Books • Arbeiter Brewing   \n\nThe Award-Winning* Under the Canopy series at The Hook & Ladder Theater returns with its uniquely seasonal urban footprint to the Longfellow neighborhood of South Minneapolis in 2025.\n \nThe Hook has committed to having a food truck Under the Canopy throughout the 2026 season for our guests.

A true multi-instrumentalist\, Malone has performed on trombone\, trumpet\, saxophone\, tuba\, flute\, and more\, bringing his powerhouse brass sound to decades of recordings\, television\, and live performances alongside some of music’s biggest names.—American Soul is a fitting brand for Mark Joseph; since his 2017 album by that title\, he has charted a relentless and soulful course through America\, and Americana\, from blues to country to psychedelic rock and everything in between. Mark has also been a full-time member of legendary MN Jam act The Big WU for 14 years and is a founding member of The Dire Wolves and Momentary Lapse of Floyd. \n=================Steeling Dan has been a fixture on the Minneapolis music scene since 2002. Specializing in the music of Steely Dan and Donald Fagen\, this 13-piece band spans the complete range from flawless execution to unique reinvention. For any true music fan\, the music of Steely Dan needs no introduction. Renowned for their impossibly perfect production value\, complex and cynical songwriting style\, and a who’s-who of A-list session musicians coloring their albums\, the brainchild of Donald Fagen and Walter Becker has set a high standard in the oeuvre of modern music.\n\n\n \n\nThank you to our sponsors\, partners\, & neighbors: \n\n\nSummit Brewing • RKR Ganja Beverages  • Tito’s Handmade Vodka • Jameson Irish Whiskey  • High Noon • Lucky One Lemonade • Nobool Presents • The Zen Arcade  • Longfellow Rising • Lake Street Council • KFAI 90.3FM • Firehouse Perfroming Arts Center • Moon Palace Books • Arbeiter Brewing   \n\nThe Award-Winning* Under the Canopy series at The Hook & Ladder Theater returns with its uniquely seasonal urban footprint to the Longfellow neighborhood of South Minneapolis in 2025.\n \nThe Hook has committed to having a food truck Under the Canopy throughout the 2026 season for our guests.

Members of Little Feat\, Trey Anastasio Band\, Johnny Winter\, and more! OUT NOW! \n \n\n“Marcus is a force to be reckoned with…As born guitarist songwriter and vocalist it was a real pleasure to produce his latest album which I feel showcases his diversity and amazing talent.”—  PAUL NELSON (GRAMMY WINNING PRODUCER & GUITARIST\, JOHNNY WINTER)\n\n\n“Marcus kills it\, shreds it\, and has it for breakfast with a side of nails.”\n— ARTHUR BARROW (FRANK ZAPPA’S BAND)\n \n“Marcus Rezak is one of the most compelling and gifted guitarist / composers to come along in a long time. He is one of the new generation of musicians who I feel will be one of the pioneers in innovative music. He has the ability to connect the dots and take it to the next level. His playing reminds me of a cross between John McLaughlin\, Jimi Hendrix and Jake Cinninger!! Marcus Rezak is here to stay.”\n— BILL EVANS (SAXOPHONIST w/ MILES DAVIS)\n\n

The Nth Power bring their New Orleans born\, soul driven album release tour to town\, delivering powerful vocals\, deep grooves\, and the kind of musicianship that hits you in the chest. Minneapolis favorites Purple Funk Metropolis and BZ3 Organ Trio lock in with raw funk\, blazing horns\, and Hammond B3 heat\, while Colorado’s The Burroughs turn up the energy with their full throttle “sweaty soul” and electric stage presence. Hipshaker MPLS keeps the dance floor alive between sets spinning rare funk and soul cuts on original vinyl. This is a full night of rhythm\, sweat\, funk and connection in the heart of Minneapolis\, come ready to dance.\n—6:00pm – Doors6:30pm – BZ3 Organ Trio (Outdoors)7:30pm – Purple Funk Metropolis (Outdoors)8:45pm – The Nth Power Album Release (Outdoors)\n10:00pm – The Burroughs (Theater Stage)\nHIPSHAKER MPLS will be spinning Rare Funk & Soul 45’s in the Zen Arcade & Between Sets All Night!================== \nThe Nth Power believes in the healing power of music. Featuring guitarist Nick Cassarino\, bassist Nate Edgar and drummer Nikki Glaspie\, the seasoned trio delivers a transcendent blend of soul\, funk\, rock and rhythm and blues. Multi-part vocal harmonies and elevated musicianship inspires audiences to dance\, groove\, make love or just stand there with goose bumps. \nThe Nth Power’s electric live performances have been flooring audiences ever since the group first aligned in New Orleans during Jazz Fest. After the band’s breakout 2013 EP\, Basic Minimum Skills Test\, The Nth Power went on to release two acclaimed studio albums and two live albums – garnering national coverage in Relix\, Modern Drummer\, Huffington Post\, Glide\, Consequence\, Okayplayer\, Paste and Sirius XM Radio.\n \nThe trio’s individual music credentials include collaborating with artists like Beyonce\, Snarky Puppy\, Maceo Parker\, Dumpstaphunk\, Big Daddy Kane and John Brown’s Body. “It’s my dream team\,” said bandleader and drummer Glaspie. “Each one of us is a songwriter\, so when we get together\, everything becomes that much stronger. We’re going as far as you can go on the planet Earth and playing music.” \n \nThe Nth Power’s inspirational sets have floored audiences at music festivals like Electric Forest\, High Sierra\, Peachfest\, North Coast Music Festival and Hulaween. They maintain New Orleans as their spiritual home\, and the celebratory essence of that city’s music culture is palpable in each performance. Simply put\, there is something pretty magical happening in this band\, and they’re only just getting started.\n—————— \n\nPurple Funk Metropolis is a charismatic seven-piece instrumental group out of Minneapolis blending soul\, jazz\, funk\, and beyond into a raw\, groove-heavy sound. Formed from University of Minnesota jazz circles\, the band has grown steadily since their 2017 debut EP Morsels\, evolving through constant gigging\, recording\, and deep musical chemistry. With a dual guitar attack\, tight rhythm section\, and standout horn work\, their live shows are built for movement and energy.  \n——————The Burroughs have spent the last decade evolving from a soul cover band in Greeley\, Colorado into a powerhouse 9-piece known for their signature “sweaty soul music” and electric live shows. Led by frontman Johnny Burroughs\, whose vocals and stage presence drive the room into a full-on frenzy\, the band delivers tight grooves\, blazing horns\, and a rhythm section built to move bodies. ——————The BZ3 Organ Trio stands as a high-octane powerhouse that injects a modern\, edgy funk aesthetic into the classic organ trio format. Hailing from the vibrant Minneapolis music scene\, the group features three stalwarts of jazz and soul: fiery Hammond B3 organist Brian Ziemniak\, award-winning guitarist David Feily\, and transcendent drummer Kevin Washington. Together\, they defy simple categorization\, seamlessly fusing jazz\, deep funk\, soul\, and R&B with a commitment to dynamic\, spirited improvisation. Known for their impassioned live performances and a focus on collective chemistry—a “symbiotic whole”—BZ3 has been aptly described as “Two Parts Elegant\, One Part Savage\,” delivering sophisticated musical journeys punctuated by undeniable\, feel-good grooves that honor the legacy of the genre while driving it toward an exciting future.——————Hipshaker MPLS | Heavy Funk & Rare Soul Dance Party with DJs Brian Engel\, Greg Waletski\, George Rodriguez spinning Original Vinyl 45s!\n\n———\n\nThank you to our sponsors\, partners\, & neighbors: \nSummit Brewing • RKR Ganja Beverages • Nobool Presents • KFAI 90.3FM • Mpls.St.Paul Magazine • The Zen Arcade • Longfellow Rising • Firehouse Perfroming Arts Center • Lake Street Council • Moon Palace Books • Arbeiter Brewing\n\n \nThe Award-Winning* Under the Canopy series at The Hook & Ladder Theater returns with its uniquely seasonal urban footprint to the Longfellow neighborhood of South Minneapolis in 2025.\n \nThe Hook has committed to having a food truck Under the Canopy throughout the 2026 season for our guests.
