THE RAGLANDERS:
The Raglanders began as a one-time collaboration assembled to play a single five song set at a Neil Young tribute concert. Audience reaction and undeniable group chemistry demanded that it become more. In short order an expanding set list of original songs, Classic Country, Americana, Alt-Country and Good ol Rock and Roll grew in depth and variety. Tight arrangements, group vocal hooks, instrumental prowess and flights of improvisation became the trademarks of a red hot Raglanders show.
Frontman Troy Heinz (guitar,vocals) has been a fixture of the Green Bay music scene for over a decade as a solo artist and member of The Bar Tab Band and Farm League. In the Spring of 2014 Troy approached local scene veterans Bonzai McPherson with the offer of a collaboration. Armed with more experience than a Reno lot lizard, the four-piece Bonzai McPherson proved to be just the solid, edgy, tasteful backing group the rock and roll doctor ordered. Bonzai McPherson consists of (appearing alphabetically): Jerry Carstens (guitar, vocals), Andy Cismoski (bass, vocals), Chris Schoenecker (drums, vocals), and John Steuck (guitar, vocals).
The Raglanders play rapid-fire sets packed with songs sure to appeal to fans of groups like: The Band, Gram Parsons, Grateful Dead, The Drive-By Truckers, Wilco, J.J. Cale and The Replacements.

THE LIVER KILLERS:
The Liver Killers is an Acoustic Bluegrass band from Green Bay, WI with rippin licks and sweet vocal harmonies thatll attack your brain and make their way down to your liver.
