Charlie Parr
2026-04-09 17:00 - 19:00 | The Dubliner Pub, 2162 University Avenue, St. Paul, 55114, United States
An easily confused and very shy individual, Charlie Parr has been traveling around singing his songs ever since leaving Austin Minnesota in the 1980’s in search of Spider John Koerner, whom he found about 100 miles north at the Viking Bar one Sunday night. The experience changed his life, made him more or less unemployable, and brings us to now: 13 recordings, 250 shows a year or more, 200,000 miles on a well broke in Kia, and a nasty fear of heights. Resonator fueled folk songs from Duluth Minnesota.

DD & Company
2026-04-09 20:00 - 23:00 | The Dubliner Pub, 2162 University Avenue, St. Paul, 55114, United States
DD & Company is Dick Danaher (accordion, clarinet, tenor saxophone, vocals) and Nick Jordan (guitar, vocals, tinwhistle, and foot percussion) and Philip Rampi (percussion).
Dick Danaher is a long-time luminary of the Twin Cities roots music scene, on various saxophones and accordion, most recently with Dan Newton and the late and great Rockin’ Pinecones
Philip Rampi plays bass / percussion, octave mandolin, banjo and cello with the adventurous string band treVeld, and with Josh Cleveland and the Cedar Street Band
Nick Jordan is a guitarist and singer with a love for many kinds of roots music; he is equally fond of sublime Swing ballads and raucous Jug-band hollers. He has been working for years in a duo with fiddler Mary DuShane of Prairie Home Companion fame.
DD & Company play and sing Swing, Zydeco, Western Swing, Old-Time Country, Rockabilly, and Jug-Band music, plus the odd Tango and Irish jig. The tie that binds their music is catchy dance rhythms from many cultures, propelled by the big voice of the accordion, jazzy solos on clarinet and sax, the rich tones of an electric archtop guitar of fine vintage, fierce double percussion from a small drum kit and relentless foot percussion in the French Canadian style. All band members sing enthusiastically.

Ray Barnard
2026-04-12 17:00 - 19:00 | The Dubliner Pub, 2162 University Avenue, St. Paul, 55114, United States
Review of Ray Barnard & The Reverberation’s album Tinted Windows To the Soul by Joe Robbie Luke – (The Roots & Funky Numbers):
At first I thought – Sweet, a converted blue-eyed souler proclaiming his authenticity. Wrong. Thankfully, Ray Bs got his own bag. Vocally, he’s drunk deep from the Bill Withers-Pops Staples well understated (and underrated). Song-wise, hes kinda Mayfield, kinda old Nashville, kinda Gamble & Huff, kinda his own deal. There s also this subtle sense of classic reggae percolating in the production. This gives it a much different slant than retro stars Sharon Jones, James Hunter, and Amy Winehouse. The clever use of horns and MPC loops adds cool neo-soul flourishes. My faves are: ‘Carolee’ and ‘Classified,’ a dense, funky, stonewall to a nosy ex-lover. I was intrigued by the protest song in reverse, Deportation Day, and loved the spooky, visceral Race with the Devil. Overall this CD is a shining jewel from out of left field.

Phil Heywood
2026-04-19 17:00 - 19:00 | The Dubliner Pub, 2162 University Avenue, St. Paul, 55114, United States
Phil Heywood plays fingerstyle guitar with a bluesy swing and a bucketful of whatever it takes to turn an instrumental piece into an arresting lyrical narrative. His lucid playing encompasses the down-home rhythmic groove of a Mississippi John Hurt or Leadbelly, and the sheer fluidity and melodic flair of such contemporaries as Leo Kottke. The internationally renowned Kottke, in fact, once handpicked Heywood to tour and perform duets with him. A soul-satisfying instrumentalist, Phil draws listeners in with his voice as well, singing in a warm, plainspoken baritone that blends smoothly with his rock-solid guitar work.

Joe Carey
2026-04-23 20:00 - 23:00 | The Dubliner Pub, 2162 University Avenue, St. Paul, 55114, United States
“Carey plays vocal-driven, guitar-heavy stuff reminiscent of what would happen if The Black Crowes played a friend’s barbecue. It’s upbeat, driving rock for the kind of folks who say the Foo Fighters are the best thing Dave Grohl has ever done, and the kind of folks who mean it. That’s the thing to take away from Carey: He knows what he likes, and that’s what he plays.” -The Onion’s A.V. Club
