Erik Brandt and The Urban Hillbilly Quartet
2024-10-06 17:00 - 19:00
It started as a jam session in 1995 in a now burnt-out St. Paul hole-in-the-wall bar. Over 20 years later, the Urban Hillbilly Quartet has grown into an award-winning Twin Cities-based ensemble that delivers an eclectic mix of musical styles, blending electric guitar, piano, accordion, bass and drums. On stage, the Hillbillies perform mainly original material–most of which can be found on their nine albums. Their most recent recording South of Dark was released in 2018.
Their music has been influenced by: Midwest powerhouses The Jayhawks and Uncle Tupelo; UK’s The Waterboys; Canada’s Bruce Cockburn; and folk/jazz star David Grisman. UHQ has been compared to R.E.M., The Grateful Dead, and 16 Horsepower.
The core of the band is Erik Brandt (guitar, accordion, piano, lead vocals), Jeremy Szopinski (electric guitar), Dave Strahan (electric guitar), Mike Schultz (bass) and Jim Orvis (drums) who have been performing together in the UHQ all over the United States and overseas.

Kia Cashman has a long history of singing; from folk songs with her father to performing with the Bel Canto Voices, with the Roger Anderson Trio, and with other groups over the years.

Bundle & Go is the duo of David and Suzanne Rhees, two stalwarts of the Twin Cities traditional music scene. They play an eclectic mix of vigorous Irish dance tunes, slow listening pieces, and unusual songs, with a generous sprinkling of tunes from related traditions — Cape Breton, Welsh, Scottish, French-Canadian, Métis, Appalachian and more.
Their instruments are equally diverse: Suzanne plays Irish flute, whistles and button accordion, while Dave plays fiddle, banjo, guitar, mandolin, harmonica, ukulele and feet.
Suzanne has played with accordion master Paddy O’Brien’s group, O’Rourke’s Feast, and Dave is a veteran of the band Roisin Dubh. They both were members of Contradictions, a contradance band, and La Traversée, a French-Canadian group. They founded the Keegan’s Irish Pub jam session in Minneapolis and have taught seminars and workshops on the roots and branches of Celtic music for the Irish Fair of Minnesota, the Minnesota Old Time and Bluegrass Association, and the Celtic Junction Arts Center.
