The group was founded in the early 90’s by 3 childhood friends: Baatin, T3, rapper and producer J Dilla, who all grew up together in the Conant Gardens neighborhood of Detroit, MI. After leaving Pershing High School, the trio began to forge a path into the Detroit underground hip hop scene and quickly found themselves steadily gaining popularity, where they originally went by the name Ssenepod. In 1991 changed their name to Slum Village, recording their first album Vol. 1″ , recorded in Dillas basement and RJ Rice Studios, it was critically acclaimed in the Detroit underground scene. It later found its way into the hands of A Tribe Called Quest’s own Q-Tip, who played it for some of hip hop’s elite, such as Busta Rhymes, Questlove, and D’angelo. Slum Village landed their first record deal in 1998 with Barak/AM records. Due to label politics, the group was forced to release their album “Best Kept Secret” under the alias J-88,. Their now classic record, “Fantastic, Vol. 2” was also in production, but was not officially released until 2000 through Barak Records, dubbed an immediate classic from fans and industry tastemakers. This album featured an A list line up including Busta Rhymes, Common, D’angelo, Jazzy Jeff, Pete Rock, Kurupt, and Q-Tip who passed the torch to Slum Village on the record “Hold Tight”. In 2001, J Dilla made the decision to leave the group to pursue his solo career, but still hung around helping Young RJ with production. Baatin and T3 started work on their next album “Trinity” through Barak/Capital Records, featuring Elzhi on 6 of the tracks. This album would feature their first commercial single “Tainted” which ft an unknown Dwele, also disco and the remix produced by Timberland. In 2002, “Dirty District”, a compilation of songs by Detroit rappers largely produced by T3 and Young RJ, was released. 2004 album, “Detroit Deli” (A Taste of Detroit), the album included the hit single “Selfish” produced by Kanye West, featuring John Legend. 2005, the release of “Prequel To a Classic”, a mix tape with production from Young RJ and Black Milk. In 2009, Slum started production on their next album, “Villa Manifesto” In 2010, the album “Villa Manifesto” was released under Ne’astra/Koch Records, featuring the late Baatin. By that time Elzhi had decided to move on and focus on pursuing his own solo career. 2011/2012 Slum Village new mixtape “Dirty Slums Vol. 1 & Vol. 2” presented by DJ Mick Boogie featuring artist such as Rapper Big Pooh, De La Soul, Focus, Skyzoo, Phonte, and Fife, having over 100,000 downloads. 2013/2014 “B-Sides” and Vintage albums were released. 2015/2016 “YES” was released, produced by Jay Dee a.k.a.

6PM DOORS 8PM SHOW Full food and beverage menu available for the show. $15 ADVANCE (+taxes/fees) $22 DAY OF SHOW (+taxes) Join us for a spring evening as we celebrate Sammie Jean's highly anticipated single release of Wild Horse! This special event will feature performances by the talented Jillian Rae and Wild Lyre, bringing you an incredible mix of blues, Americana, and rock sounds. Don’t miss this opportunity to hear new music, enjoy great company, and immerse yourself in a night of soulful melodies.Come early, stay late, and let's make it a night to remember and we hope to see you there! Singer-songwriter Sammie Jean Cohen, was born and raised in Minneapolis Minnesota 1990. She grew up listening to a wide range of music. Her mother listening to R&B Hip pop/Rock her father had an ear for country and old folk music which led Sammie to become a bluesy americana artist. This year Sammie is focused on writing, recording and playing out. While she is not on stage singing you will often see her running around to other gigs and festivals snapping photos. She one day dreams to open for Lucinda Williams And Heartless Bastards! Sammie also is releasing her very first single this Spring, 2025 Wild Horse. Check the teaser video above and stay tuned. WILD LYRE “It would be like if Kurt Vile and Mac DeMarco had a kid together, but then that kid met Tom Petty and they had a kid, but like Heartbreakers Petty, and that kid was actually Bob Seger, and then Seger had multiple kids w JJ Cale, and then all of Seger’s and JJ’s kids took acid together and locked each other in a studio to write songs and rehearse every Sunday night for two years in someone’s backyard drinking bubbly waters and rum and sometimes Miller Lite, but there was never any food so they’re all pretty hungry. It kinda sounds like that.” - C Holley Otherwise “Minnesota rock and roll band” will suffice ;). Jillian Rae is a powerhouse indie artist based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Lauded as a “triple threat on vocals, fiddle and composition” (Star Tribune), Rae is a fiercely unique spirit who cares more about making authentic music than about conforming to expectations. After getting her start as a side-woman in a plethora of folk and americana bands (including Steve Kaul and the Brass Kings, Brian Just Band, Killer Hayseeds, and Duluth-based Two Many Banjos) Rae broke out on her own with her debut solo record Heartbeat in 2013, and since then has become a prolific performer and local favorite. Since Heartbeat, Jillian Rae has toured extensively, released 8 singles (Heart In A Jar, 2014; Superlungs, My Super Girl, 2015; When Doves Cry, 2017; Medication, 2018; Doing My Best, 2022; Stuck, 2022; Barely Breathing, 2023; and Silence, 2024), an EP (Wanderlust, 2017), and a second full length album (I Can’t Be The One You Want Me To Be, 2019). The album’s final track Wayward One was featured prominently in the hit Chinese film The White Storm 2 and has catapulted Rae into near stardom in China. In addition to performing, Rae is a producer, mentor, educator, and session player. She also co-owns Iron Bull Records recording studio in St. Paul, MN with her husband and partner Eric Martin. When she’s not working on music, Rae can be found wandering around in search of a good thrift shop, food spot, ghost story, music to hear, and pretty things to see. If you really want to get her going, ask her about her son (who is a handsome dog named Roadie), if she’s ever played the game Dominion, and/or her thoughts on Bigfoot.

Sat, May 24

Join us for brunch! Full food and beverage menu available for the entire show. If you reserve a table, it is your for the entire show. 11AM START 2PM END $8 COVER (+taxes/fees) ABOUT RYAN PICONE QUARTET Ryan Picone Quartet is a group that was put together to showcase the original compositions of Ryan Picone. The music has been written throughout different time periods in his life, and represents his connection to the music of Django Reinhardt. The band consists of Ryan Picone from The Red Hot Django Peppers, Ian Stenlund from The Mississippi Hot Club, Tessa Nichols Meade from the Cold City Heat, and Matt Blake from the Gentleman’s Anti Temperance League. This group is an all star group that brings together a new transfiguration of Jazz. CD Liner notes: The songs on this album are connected to a musical journey that spans several years of my life. The album’s title, I Awake, is an allusion to the great Django Reinhardt, to whom the album is dedicated. Each song, represents a story, a time, a place, a person, a moment, or a feeling - and the album as a whole explores the paradoxical and circular nature of beginning and end. Review by author; Michael Dregni. "Swinging, sensual, moody, rousing — Ryan Picone Quartet's music follows the trail of Django Reinhardt's Gypsy jazz. Listening to these tracks, you can almost smell the campfire smoke and see the nighttime lights of Paris burning on the horizon. Bon voyage!"

LAAMAR In The Light record release with Lady Midnight + special guests

Fri, May 30

8pm doors 9pm show $15 advance // $22 day of Full food and beverage menu available all evening. LAAMAR is the latest project led by Minneapolis-based singer, songwriter, saxophonist, and composer Geoffrey Lamar Wilson. Former frontman of Brooklyn-based Jus Post Bellum, Wilson is also known for his multilayered looped saxophone performances and catchy podcast ditties (Terrible, Thanks for Asking). After unexpectedly bursting onto the scene in 2023 with his debut single “Home to My Baby,” LAAMAR has had a steady stream of in-demand performances and radio play across Minnesota. His engaging, humorous, and often intensely hushed solo performances led to opening slots for notable touring artists including Arlo Parks, Durand Jones, Dan Wilson, and Sunny War. Flowers blends Wilson’s idiomatic inspirations, bridging folk, soul, R&B, and country, with an ear toward racial and social justice issues and the shared human experience. Backed by his dynamic and sharp-eared band, which can evolve to include saxophone, cello, and a rotating cast of guest vocalists, LAAMAR puts on a live show that is at once known to get folks dancing while alternatively leaving them in tears. LAAMAR’s debut full-length In The Light finds the artist exploring the intersection of identity, masculinity, joy, and grief. In this new collection of songs, LAAMAR writes through the lens of fatherhood, personal growth, and self-discovery, expanding on the racial justice issues at the heart of Flowers. In The Light explores the myriad ways in which empathy for oneself and others, and an increasing capacity for human connection, can tell stories that bring community together. With Nat Harvie (Low, Cole Pulice) in the producer’s chair, this new collection of songs and live show continues to expand the band’s musical direction, with bold production, densely layered instrumentation, and an ever-widening assortment of musical collaborators.

Molly:||:Molly & The Scarlet Goodbye in the Courtyard!

Molly:||:Molly & The Scarlet Goodbye in the Courtyard!

Thu, Jun 05

5pm doors 6:30pm show Molly:II:Molly Molly Maher & Molly Dean connect and collaborate for curiosities. Supported by and adding to their conversation will be Jeremy Yvisaker, JT Bates and Steve Murray. Molly Dean isn't just a songwriter—she's a sonic storyteller, weaving together raw emotion, intricate melodies, and a sense of wanderlust. Molly Maher isn't just a songwriter- she musically resides in a lush grove where there's quiet places to dwell amongst rushing streams and minor thirds. The Scarlet Goodbye labelled “the most unlikely mash-up in Minnesota Music History”, is the creative combination of Daniel Murphy and Jeff Arundel. Murphy, pivotal in the launch of both Soul Asylum and the supergroup Golden Smog, had stepped away from the game in 2012, after 30 years of recording and touring. A chance meeting with mellow Singer-Songwriter Jeff Arundel led the duo, whose careers spanned the same time frame but had essentially no other resemblance, to start writing and recording. Murphy and Arundel fashioned a collection of songs that producer John Fields, who was brought in to mix the record, calls “both timeless and unique, part Rolling Stones and part Townes Van Zandt”.

5PM DOORS 6:30PM SHOW Full food and beverage menu available for the show. This is a seated show outside in our courtyard! Join us for a hot summer night of live music from local rockers The Twins of Franklin on one of the most iconic patios in the cities! They’ll be joined by special guest Ty Pow of The Holy North for part of the evening, and will be debuting brand new tunes and vibes after a little Spring hiatus. The Twins of Franklin only have a few local shows lined up for the summer, so if you’ve been itching to catch them live, make sure you add this date to your calendar today! See you and yours at Icehouse on June 12th! The Twins of Franklin are not, in fact, twins. They are best friends Becky Shaheen and Laura Lou, two Minneapolis musicians who fell in love belting show tunes and classical arias together in a dorm room back in 2009. Over the past fifteen years, they have evolved into professional musicians, releasing multiple albums—both together and solo—and performing hundreds of shows as a dynamic duo. Their newest album, “This Life” has received an overwhelmingly positive response since its release in May 2024. The album promises "a sonic journey unlike any other," as described by Tom Smouse from Music in Minnesota. He noted that it “blends introspective ballads with vibrant, soul-stirring melodies, featuring big, fun rock and roll songs that bookend the album. The overall experience is a cohesive indulgence of harmonies that will captivate listeners, serving as a testament to friendship, creativity, and the enduring power of music that has bonded the band together.” Local legend Youa Vang put it eloquently for MSPMag when she said, "on their latest album, This Life, they come out swinging on their own terms with dense, intentional authenticity that is driven by emotional maturity." In contrast to their indie-pop debut, “Low,” This Life showcases the Twins’ captivating harmonies while allowing their band to shine. That band is made up of bass/harmonica player and third harmony Joe Shaheen and powerhouse drummer Brian Riedinger. Since their Spring release, they’ve gotten to hear their songs in regular radio rotation, played to some of their biggest audiences to date, and continued to grow as humans, mothers, and friends. Ty Pautsch is a talented musician known for his compelling performances as the lead singer of the band, The Holy North. Tyler discovered his passion for music at an early age, channeling his creative energy through the strings of his guitar and the power of his voice. His unique blend of soulful melodies and raw, emotive lyrical content has captivated audiences across various platforms, distinguishing him as a dynamic force in the music industry.
