With special guests Todd Menton, Drew Miller, and Mark Black

The music of Van Orman & Helwin blends textures and texts of antique and modern soundscapes, familiar enough to be warm and welcoming, adequately exotic to be fresh and surprising. They share traditional and contemporary songs of a world populated by cowboys, sailors, moon goddesses, and many sorts of lovers.

The duo will be joined by Todd Menton (Boiled in Lead), Drew Miller (Boiled in Lead, Kinda Fonda Wanda), and Mark Black (Other Country Ensemble) for this event.

Van Orman’s regional mark is made clear by the Minnesota artists who have covered his songs over the years; Boiled in Lead, Bill Hinkley and Judy Larson, Sherry Minnick, and The Flash Girls are a diverse lot whose recorded performances of his songs reflect the breadth of Van Orman’s appeal.

Tickets:  $20 Advance, $25 at the door.  Youth 18 years and under receive free admission.
