Acclaimed Minnesota bands Sleeping Jesus and We Are The Willows present a special afternoon performance, celebrating the release of new music by both bands.
Shotgun (9/8/2025) is the third full-length & self-produced LP by folk/Americana rockers Sleeping Jesus and art-pop project We Are The Willows will perform new works from their forthcoming EP.
Children ages 12 and under can enjoy free admission with a paying adult!
Minnesota rock & roll band Sleeping Jesus put their own spin on rock and roll and Americana, blending their favorite elements of modern indie rock with the dusty sounds of your dad’s old record collection.
At nearly 10 years as a band, the group has become experts at genre hopping. Their latest release, Shotgun, is a true testament to that. The record is full of rock and roll and whimsy. Like the scatter of shotgun, on their third and fully self-produced album, Sleeping Jesus spreads themselves across multiple genres, from steel guitar-filled shit-kickin’ country, ‘70s reminiscent folk, and bouncy harmony-filled indie rock.

We Are The Willows is the art-pop project of Minneapolis based singer/songwriter Peter Miller (creatively known as Peter M.). His unique countertenor voice is often supported by Jeremiah Satterthwaite on guitar, Travis Collins on bass and backup vocals, Hilary James on cello and backup vocals, and Josh McCay on drums. Active since 2014 and most notably recognized for their 2016 two-part, twenty-song concept album Picture (Portrait) (based on letters written between his grandparents during World War II), Miller’s outfit has garnered praise from NPR, BBC, Noisey, Paste Magazine, Buzzfeed, and Brooklyn Vegan. Over eight years, We Are The Willows has supported and shared the stage with acts including Blitzen Trapper, S. Carey, Phox, and Matt Pond PA across showcases at SXSW, Treefort Festival, and Milwaukee’s Summer fest.
