No tickets required. Just come, hang out and listen to music together in community.
We put together an epic collection of fierce local music. Come listen with us and meet new friends.
In moments of uncertainty, music has always risen to meet the times. _Big Hopes of Mid-America, Vol. 1_ is a bold new compilation of protest songs and music of dissent created by Minnesota artists determined to turn frustration into action — and community into momentum.
Born out of urgency following the 2024 election, the Minnesota Music Resistance (MMR) collective emerged from a shared need for solidarity within the state’s vibrant music scene. Founder Paul Engebretson rallied a wide cross-section of the community — musicians, sound engineers, record store owners, radio and podcast hosts, writers, and lifelong fans — people who understand that a music scene is more than entertainment. It’s infrastructure. It's a refuge. It’s voice. Still in its early stages, MMR is committed to finding meaningful ways to support human rights, inclusion, and the communities most vulnerable to rising authoritarian and nationalistic pressures.
