2026-02-09 18:00 - 20:00
Mumblin’ Drew’s Oldfangled Orchestrators (MOO) are a string band from Minneapolis, MN. Purveyors of novelty, squeezed through a cheesecloth filter of eccentric entertainment, they reanimate the music of the early 20th century. Fiddle, clarinet, and saxophone weave their sound to the fringes of old-time, jazz, jug band, ragtime, and tin pan alley, while guitar and string bass hold down the rhythm. Meet MOO with an open mind, and prepare to be zazzled and zowed! You can find MOO down at the White Squirrel Bar, on W 7th Street in St. Paul, MN the 2nd Monday of every month. https://mumblindrew.com/

Sam & J w. Squinny
2026-02-08 18:00 - 20:00
Sam & J:
Sam & J began their act impromptu at a hair salon, performing Sam’s songs together for a small audience. The set proved to be fun. For the past few years, Sam & J have expanded their musical partnership, recording some of their favorite numbers and performing original music for whoever will have them. Sam & J have borrowed ideas from many people and disciplines–from the writings of Eugene Ionesco and Richard Brautigan, to the music of John Denver and Keith Jarrett.

Squinny:
Squinny is a Minneapolis psych glam four-piece. Synth and riff-heavy, the group’s high-energy performances are home to both dancing and head-banging. Their combination of crushing rhythms and giant melodies is reminiscent of T. Rex a la Daft Punk or Justice.

Butter Boys are a Minneapolis rock band writing songs about good times, bad times, and not turning in your homework. Mixing pop sensibilities with punk attitude, the Butter Boys will loudly and proudly give you all the permission you require to dance, headbang, and sing into your hairbrush microphone.

“I appreciate the work that IDN is doing to help our marginalized communities especially in this time of crisis.
And I would like to donate all monies received (payment and tips) to IDN
Home

Please join us in song and reflection about these trying times in my hometown of
The Twin Cities
We will be joined by Bryan Odeen with 3 special songs from his perspective of events
and Lauren Asheim with a song of hope for the future.
The fight is on people and this is one of our ways of showing up for our friends and neighbors in our community.”
Bryan Odeen is a Minnesota transplant with a deep love people and their stories. The songs he’s sharing tonight (or substitute whatever date) are inspired by this love. The 3 songs process the what it means to be a neighbor and how our actions affect the world. In the wake of the anti-immigrant movement resulting in (among many other shattered lives) Renee Good’s murder, these questions are more important than ever.

Canadian Girlfriend: With lyrics written over lonely winters and melodies crafted in a NE Minneapolis basement, Canadian Girlfriend was formed in 2010 by four former cross-country running teammates. Spanning from riff-driven indie rock to four-on-the-floor synth-pop, CGF is by turns pithy and groovable, with an enduring sweetness alongside the melancholy of fleeting love.

Barrel Flash: Julia Brown, Ross Jonson and Brianna Webber offer up many original songs and loving covers that touch us from a huge range of styes and eras – Old English to Broadway musicals to old and current songs done in unique ways! A three voice “wall of sound” to momentarily shake off hopelessness and conjure up hope, joy and humor.

Dive Bar Orchestra: Lisa Tradewell and Anthony Roos spearhead an extremely thoughtful and engaging sound, almost entirely original songs from their collective hands. DBO has become a well-recognized group from the core duo to a full band around the Cities.

They play at the White Squirrel the first Wednesday of every month where they stretch out on an eclectic range of tunes from country classics, old folk songs, and deep cut soul tunes. Often they are joined by the who’s who of local songwriters as their special guests every month, where they get to show off their skills as professional sidemen. They look forward to the first Wednesday every month and they’d be thrilled if you came by to join them sometime.
