More About Paul Lawrence: Born and raised in southern Wisconsin, adopted by Minnesota and Iowa, Paul Lawrence has performed his original folk-country-blues on stages from Minneapolis to Taipei. Back in the USA after twelve years in Taiwan, Paul is excited to share his new songs with English-speaking audiences. Paul’s music ranges from folksy ballads to bluesy boot-stompers, all while consistently delivering exceptional vocals and finely crafted lyrics.

Paul grew up surrounded by music; his mom played the organ at church and everybody was always singing. He has been influenced by classical, gospel, blues, country, rock & roll and traditional folk music. Recently, he was particularly moved by the indigenous singers of eastern Taiwan. All of these sounds filter through Paul’s dynamic tenor voice.

Paul has twice played Taiwan’s largest outdoor market/music festival, ‘Ocean Home’ (?? ???). Paul has performed at major festivals such as MayJam (Tainan, Taiwan) and Duluth Homegrown Music Festival (Duluth, MN). In August of 2024, Paul will perform at the Porcupine Mountain Music Festival (Ontonagon, MI) for the first time. Other notable shows include a month-long residency (June, 2024) at the 331 Club (NE MPLS), The Meyer Barn (St. Joseph, MN), and Al Lucken’s “Music on the Porch” summer series. Recently, Paul has played shows with Ryan Young (Trampled by Turtles), The HIGH Rev (Pistol Whippin Party Penguins), and Kailyn Pelerin (Breanne Marie & The Front Porch Sinners), among others.

Paul’s new album, “Taiwan Winter,” was recorded at NeonBrown Studios in Crystal, MN, and features a dozen of Minnesota’s best folk and Americana musicians, including Ryan Young, Bill Quinn, Carrie Schneider, and more!

The major influences on Gordon Thorne’s guitar style have been the legends of country blues.

Combining these ragtime and piedmont influences with his own interpretations, Thorne delivers forceful, precise guitar work and soulful vocals. Thorne has been a regular performer in the northern Minnesota and Wisconsin areas for the many years. As much as his musical interests have influenced his playing, his lifestyle has shaped how he views his music.

More about Sarah Morris: Sarah Morris has a habit of missing the forest. From the day the Minneapolis based singer-songwriter picked up a guitar, armed with the bone-deep memory of her parents’ well-loved record collection and rooted in the storytelling fire of a Mary Chapin Carpenter tune, she’s been too busy crafting love letters to the details of the trees. Sarah’s endearingly honest, expertly penned songs encourage audiences to pull away from the big picture and get caught up in the magic of our everyday minutia, the rainy day ache in her sunlit voice granting us permission to escape into stories at once hauntingly familiar and uniquely her own.

A graduate of the Lawrence University Conservatory of Music, Sarah spent the first years of her career in Nashville, losing herself in the art of writing timeless Americana melodies. “Sarah Morris [is] a bright, clear, brilliant songwriter,” wrote Jon Hunt of L’Etoile Magazine. “…pure and crisp and perfect.” In the years since her 2011 debut album, Lonely or Free, Sarah’s career, like her songs, has been overflowing with delicious details. Her albums Ordinary Things (2015), Hearts in Need of Repair (2017), and All Mine (2020) recorded with band mates Thomas Nordlund, Andrew Foreman, and Lars-Erik Larson with producer Eric Blomquist, earned international airplay and considerable critical acclaim, reaching notable positions on both the Americana Music Association and Euro Americana charts. In 2016, Sarah was a top four finalist in the NewSong Music Contest at Lincoln Center in New York City, 2nd place winner of the Chris Austin Songwriting Competition at MerleFest in Wilkesboro, NC, and an Americana semi-finalist in the International Songwriting Competition. In 2018, she went on to win the Kerrville New Folk Competition, collecting an honorable mention at the Telluride Troubadour contest along the way. More recently, Sarah was named Midwest Country Music Organization’s Songwriter of the Year for the third time.

Inclined toward the intimacy of live performance, Sarah spends a remarkable amount of time on stage. Whether solo, backed by the country kick of her long-time band The Sometimes Guys (Nordlund, Foreman, and Lars-Erik Larson), in harmony-heavy collaborations with friends such as Vicky Emerson, or Matthew French, or hosting local and traveling musicians live online from her big green bathroom, her playful-hearted presence is both captivating and contagious. Amidst her steady performance schedule she has opened for greats like JD Souther, Suzy Bogguss, and Teddy Thompson – she’s had plenty of beautiful moments to revel in. And with a brand new album to share in 2023, she’s primed to offer us a few beautiful moments of our own.

Deeply committed to the Twin Cities’ life-giving music community, Morris hosted an online interview program called, “Hey, I Miss You,” to amplify the work of her peers, and currently can be found online collaborating with musicians for a Youtube series of under-rehearsed cover songs filmed in her laurel green bathroom. Additionally, Morris is head cheerleader for a local songwriting collective.

As a writer, lover, mother, and witness, Morris invites us to join her in missing the forest for the trees, with songs that count and celebrate the glorious details of our messy, magical, everyday lives.
