The event on June 7, will be at Eastern Avenue Hall in Grand Rapids MI with several BIMF Alumni!
Rogue-folk music duo and 5-piece band “Adrian and Meredith” have always marched to the beat of their own drum, unapologetic in the art they create. Since joining forces in 2015, they have put their own spin on Americana music, embodying the spirit of the human story through influences of punk, folk, polka, and swing. Their lively concerts inspire audiences to dance, clap, and stomp along.
In 2023, Adrian and Meredith toured over 100 shows across the USA, Canada, and Europe. They supported acts such as Steve'n'Seagulls, Shawn James, Jimbo Mathus, and Th'Legendary Shackshakers. They also performed at festivals like Blissfest, Wheatland Festival, and 30A Songwriters Festival. Additionally, they played prestigious venues including Performing Art Centers and Levitt Shell Pavilions nationwide. Now, six years after their debut, Adrian and Meredith are taking their fearless, blistering, Balkan-tinged Americana sound to new heights - a raucous yet intimate variety show. The new record draws in listeners with the duo's warmth, intensity and candidness - imparting an easy sense of joy and kinship in turbulent times.
2024 promises more touring, music, and revelry as this duo continues marching to their own rhythm. They plan to release a series of new songs recorded at Dial Back Records in Oxford, MS with members of bands like Squirrel Nut Zippers, Punch Brothers, Mighty Poplar, and with Jimbo Mathus.
Their band has been described as “elements of klezmer, power pop, ska, New Orleans swing and a touch of blues rock just for good measure...with enthusiasm and oodles of charm...includes romantic joys and dramas, the vagaries of getting old and the theft of a keishka. Have fun with this one! (Paste Magazine)"
Come see what No Depression aptly calls “A barn-burner of Roots Rock Perfection!”

The Legal Immigrants:
This honest to goodness rock-n-roll band from Grand Rapids delivers the driving, energetic sounds of classic Rock music. They are four ‘battered souls’ that banded together with a ‘genre-phobic’ style that has ‘something for everyone and everything for some.
Combining the suave style and looks of flashy boy bands like O-Town and the Jonas Brothers with the soothing sounds of a roll of quarters in your garbage disposal, The Legal Immigrants have been punching butt-rock bands sonically in the face since 2009
Blending influences of classic rock, folk, blues, and binge drinking, this 4-piece is guaranteed to have you making bad decisions until the sun comes up. Their ear catching harmonies and monstrous riffs accompany well-crafted songs that anyone with a pulse can groove to. The band's discography boasts a hearty collection of all-analog classic recordings, done by the esteemed Tommy Schichtel at Goon Lagoon Studios - a self-proclaimed "moist towelette for the recording industry."
The Legal Immigrants offer something for everything, and everything for some.
