Icehouse's Upcoming Shows

6pm Door Time 8pm Show Time $20 adv (+fees/taxes) $27 doors (+fees/taxes) Full food and beverage available for this show. 18+ 2025 MARKS 40 YEARS OF THE SILOS The Silos began as a musical force in 1985 with the release of their first album “About Her Steps” along with a series of gigs in their hometown neighborhood, the East Village of New York City. They were part of New York’s post-punk ‘80s scene and played Indie Rock, Alt-Rock, Alt-Country, and Americana before any critics coined those terms. Heralded at their outset by Rolling Stone as "America's Best New Band," the resilient Silos mix punk, roots, rock, and sage art-damaged truth telling. Salas-Humara’s narratives take on the weight of attentive, convincing poetry and wry wordplay. The Silos have created a sound that's hard to pin down - “The band's austere style inflects the astringent twang of The Velvet Underground with the drone of R.E.M. and adds countryish echoes that recall Gram Parsons," offered The New York Times. Their latest effort and 12th studio album “Family” was released in 2022 and work has begun on a new album to celebrate their 40th Anniversary in 2025. There will also be series of live albums released in 2025 that span the 40 years of the band on the road.

Emily Haavik's Bio: Emily Haavik is a singer-songwriter from the shores of Lake Superior, now based in the Twin Cities. "There's soul in Haavik's voice" (Duluth News Tribune), and she writes "terrific songs with honest lyrics and infectious hooks" (The Bluegrass Situation). Emily plays a blend of Americana, folk and glitzy-glam country, often with her incredible band the 35s. Her music has been featured on Good Morning America and 20/20, and her work as a journalist has been honored by multiple national awards including the Peabody and DuPont. Her song "Do You Think You Protect Me?" was called “one of the year’s most powerful local songs on sexual violence awareness” by The Current. The video for it was nominated for the Midwest Country Music Video of the Year, received press coverage across Minnesota and raised over $5K for nonprofits combating violence against women. She releases her new album Wingspan in fall 2024. The International Treasures' Bio: Drawn from the very air itself (and a robust wi-fi signal), the combination of Ted Hajnasiewicz and Doyle Turner feels like fate. Raised on Minneapolis rock and roll, Ted Hajnasiewicz is an award-winning songwriter and named “Maverick” artist by the Midwest Country Music Organization. Doyle Turner is the “little bit country” side of the duo. Doyle and Ted met on the internet in 2020, and have put their backs to the musical wall to perform songs that matter. Active performers as solo artists and various musical projects, Doyle and Ted both have a solid recording catalog. The International Treasures’ debut album, “Together, We Are The International Treasures” was released into the world in 2023.

5pm Doors 6pm Showtime Full food and beverage available for this show. 18+ $15 Adv (+fees/taxes) $22 Doors (+fees/taxes) alolender.com Songwriter Al Olender tries to grasp the brief, beautiful moments that make up our lives in slow-motion but finds that the tighter she holds on, the more these frames fall into a soupy blur. Change is our only constant, but what if we wanted to steep in the now? What if we could stay right here? Olender captures the anxieties of an ever-moving world with a sweet and silly sincerity on her second full-length album The Worrier, never shying away from staring the truth right in the face. Exploring anxiety, sexuality and anarchy, both in herself and in her relationships, Olender’s acoustic, bluesy melodies point to the butterflies of first crushes, the gut-punching realities of responsibility and the eternal romance of friendship. Ahna Bio: Ahna Ell is a songwriter steeped in poetry and wandering. Her fourth release, 2026's Ride On, marks her most imperative work yet with its unflinching embrace of longing and resolve. After touring for a decade (Forlorn Strangers, The Rally Club), Ahna launched her solo project with lofi bedroom folk album Everybody's Gonna Let You Down in 2021, followed by two live EPs, and a handful of singles. Now, she's on the road bringing the songs to life as often as she can. Birth, death, pancakes, heartache, Charles Manson, and Pascal’s God shaped hole—Ell mines the ordinary and the exceptional for meaning. When not writing, Ahna’s probably surfing or eating oysters

6pm Doors 8pm Showtime Full food and beverage available for this show. 18+ $25 Adv (+fees/taxes) $32 Doors (+fees/taxes) Jeffrey Martin has always been drawn to solitude, stories, and the quiet moments where songs take shape. A lifelong writer at heart, he found his voice early—first as a devoted listener, then as a songwriter who wrote with urgency and honesty. Before music became his full-time calling, Jeffrey was a high school English teacher, pouring his days into classrooms and his nights into songs, often balancing tours with grading papers and early mornings. Eventually, the pull of the road proved impossible to ignore. Leaving teaching behind wasn’t easy, but it was necessary. Today, Jeffrey Martin tours full time, crafting deeply human songs marked by introspection, humility, and emotional clarity. He’s always making music, always passing through town—still guided by the same quiet resolve, and still carrying the spirit of a teacher who believes in chasing what matters most. Niall Connolly: 1977. The year that punk was born.With only hours left to spare it also produced a baby boy in the suburbs of Cork, Ireland, born with his ears piqued to the murmurs and clatter around him.As he grew the soundtrack changed. Nirvana on the Walkman. Leonard Cohen on his sister’s stereo. The surge of bands and songwriters emerging from the 1990’s Cork music scene. Later it became snippets of eavesdropped New York conversation. Tales of woe on the radio. The sights and sounds of tours across Europe.All of it gets woven into a tapestry of words. Then melody. Harmonies added in the studio. Electricity, sincerity, and humor on the stage. At the core of every Niall Connolly song is the story, one that unfolds a layer with each listen. 

5pm Doors 7pm Showtime Full food and beverage available for this show. 18+ $30 Adv (+fees/taxes) $40 Doors (+fees/taxes) Internationally acclaimed guitar virtuoso Trace Bundy must be seen, not just heard. His music is poetry in motion, using harmonics, looping, multiple capos, and his unique banter and stage presence to deliver an unforgettable live concert experience. Listening to his intricate arrangements is one thing but seeing the fan-dubbed “Acoustic Ninja” play live confounds even the most accomplished music lovers as to how one person can do all that with just two hands and ten fingers. Bundy’s unique career has brought him across the world, with concerts in 28 countries and counting – from high-tech performance halls in South Korea and Italy, to remote villages in Zimbabwe and Guatemala. He has independently sold over 150,000 albums on his record label, Honest Ninja Music. His video clips circulate virally at astonishing speed, with over 45 million YouTube views to date. Jimmy Leslie at Guitar Player Magazine blogs “It was easy to see why Bundy plays bigger venues on each tour. In his hands, the acoustic guitar is an imagination station, and there was no telling where he is going take the audience at any given turn. Thrilling stuff.” 

6pm Doors 8pm Showtime Full food and beverage available for this show. 21+ $15 Adv (+fees/taxes) $22 Doors (+fees/taxes) Feyleux Bio: Feyleux is a new dark alternative duo that emerged in mid-2023, seamlessly blending dream pop, darkwave, and post-punk to create their distinct sound. Their debut album, “ Midnight Hearts”, released via the Swiss Dark Nights label, showcases cutting-edge bass synthesizers, cascading guitar melodies, and ethereal harmonies, drawing on the vibrant gothic synth-pop aesthetics of the 1980s as well as modern darkwave. Post-punk.com - "The music entices you with a carefree melody, but the voices suggest something deeper and a tad unsettling, ensuring you’re always a little bit on edge. It’s that feeling you get when the ouija board starts spelling out something a little too real." - Post-punk.com, Alice Teeple I DIE:YOU DIE - "A firm but beautiful declaration of severance, it’s quite simply one of the best goth tunes we’ll enjoy this year. Thankfully, it isn’t standing on its own in Midnight Hearts, but is surrounded by a clutch of elegant and well-considered tunes which have immediately established Feyleux as a force to be reckoned with moving forward." - idieyoudie.com, Bruce https://feyleux.bandcamp.com/ Video for “The Empress” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LipbMqcpxpk Video for “Phantoma” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hxj5NloHnNc Carrellee Bio: Carrellee's delicately, sensual vocals are layered over a wall of scorched synths and processed tapes. Her synth-pop sound was crafted with support from producer Brett Bullion (Low, Polica.) using a microKORG and Yamaha DX7 synth coming from folk inspired music. https://www.carrellee.com The Rope Bio: Formed in Minneapolis in 2009, The Rope weaves post-punk, darkwave, and gothic threads into a uniquely dark and driving sound, drawing influence from bands ranging from The Chameleons to The Sisters of Mercy.

Together with her sextet, their composer/bassist weaves the prosody of one into the syntax of the other. Stories emerge: atonal winds wail over woozy bass lines; voices crescendo over beating hand drums. Melding Wabanaki songs with religious hymns and jazz traditions with Québécois folk music, Obomsawin chronicles the complex histories that have come to shape Abenaki life today.

Come celebrate the new era with us with incredible local support from anni xo and Waking Hours! The Matriarch Bio: The Matriarch is a queer, indie rock/folk pop duo based in Chicago, IL, made up of Mal Babcock and Mal Benoit- two best friends who share a name, a home, and a creative codependency that works too well. What started as a pandemic-era accident (shoutout to an unexpected knee injury) turned into a full-blown band fueled by cosmic timing and emotional honesty. Their determination to grow together musically and to create a safe, inclusive space for the LGBTQIA+ community made them darlings of the local music scene. Four years later, the band has played over 100 shows across the Midwest, opening for contemporaries including Kid Sistr, Okey Dokey, Busman’s Holiday and Glad Rags. Their songs are a celebration of shared human experience and a testament to the transformative nature of art. Whether they’re writing about personal regret and climate dread (‘The End’), or the constraints of capitalism and a longing for change (‘K!’), themes of community, love, and growth remain at the heart of everything they do.

Seating is first come, first serve. 21+ $15 Adv (+fees/taxes) $22 Doors (+fees/taxes) Moe’s Bio Country-folk songsmith Moe Reen writes from the heart, for the heart. A lifelong vocalist, their old-school country voice harkens to honky-tonk-heartbreak crooners of yesteryear, while their lyrics appeal to the personal-political concerns of today. The songs on their debut EP, Grow Again, include a finger-picked reflection on the malaise of seasonal depression alongside a slow-dancing lament likening climate deniers to unrequited lovers. Moe's marriage of sentimental sound with contemporary sentiment produces something distinctly their own: earnest lyrics cradled by melodies that tenderly soar to tend to the sore, soft spots of us all. Moe's debut album, Scribbled Line, was recorded live and released in June 2025. It is now available for purchase on vinyl through their bandcamp. “After releasing a very promising EP last year, Moe Reen is back with a full-length that decisively delivers on that promise. The Ohio singer-songwriter has a big following on TikTok thanks to their distinctive covers of old Patsy Cline and Johnny Mathis songs, but Scribbled Line is filled with original tunes about love and loss, the distance between the two, and the longing that fills that space. Moe Reen is blessed with a classic crooner’s voice that’s perfect for singing about those topics. Here, they show that they can write evocatively about them as well.” — Ben Salmon, “The Best Country Music on Bandcamp, June 2025” Sadie’s Bio Folk singer Sadie Gustafson-Zook marries agile vocals and intricate guitar playing while her thoughtful lyrics capture the immensity of potential and the complexity of history that emerge during times of life transition. Sadie’s songs have been endorsed by some of the most respected songwriting contests in the country, winning Kerrville Folk Festival’s 2022 New Folk Contest (as well as placing as a finalist in 2020), earning second place at the Rocky Mountain Folk Fest’s Songwriter Showcase, and winning first place at the NewSong + LEAF Songwriting Contest. Sadie has been featured on the Basic Folk podcast and on Folk Alley. “Sadie Gustafson-Zook is a songwriter with that enviable knack of being able to take a very specific moment in her life and somehow imbue it with universality and a common thread. Listening to her songs, you find yourself thinking about your own existence as you learn about hers.” — Songwriting Magazine Michael’s Bio Michael Gay is a Minneapolis-based country and folk storyteller. Michael cut his teeth in the Twin Cities’ Americana scene while releasing music under the moniker, Almighty American, winning fans and media praise for his honest, accessible songwriting spanning a coupe of self-released EP’s and a full length album, Somewhere Ride (2017). Michael eventually ditched the moniker and started performing under his own name in 2020, marking this shift with the release of Make It Right (2021) Produced by John James Tourville in a friend’s home studio in Nashville, TN. The album was mixed/mastered by Paul Oldham. In the spring of 2023, he and his band (now consisting of Daniel Stewart on Bass, Matt Decker on Drums, and AJ Srubas on Pedal Steel) filmed and recorded the last show of a monthly residency at The Terminal Bar in NE Minneapolis. The result was a live album — “Michael Gay & His Dang Band: Live from a Dive” released in March of 2024. The full album’s live performance is available to watch on YouTube and the audio is available to stream in digital album format on all major streaming platforms.

The husband & wife duo’s unique blend of vocal harmonies, thoughtful lyrics and virtuosic instrumental arrangements have been drawing in audiences across the US since 2018. Nick & Ren met while attending college at the University of Wisconsin-Superior. After a fateful late-night jam on a cold night in January, they decided to play a show together. One turned into two, and two into about two-hundred between the winter of 2018 and the spring of 2020. In June of 2021 the Howl’s relocated to the Los Angeles area and spent three years based out west. While in California they recorded two albums with the rock group One Less Guest, were a part of two subsequent tours with the band, and collaborated on numerous projects with other artists in music & film. Most notably providing the soundtrack to the 2022 short film, The Pool Boy. When talking about what inspired them to make the leap into doing music full time, Nick & Ren often credit the amazing friends and memories they made during their time in California.
