Charlie Parr plays original and traditional folk and Piedmont-style blues, accompanying himself on National resonator guitar, 12-string guitar and sometimes a banjo. He was raised in Austin, Minnesota, in a household that prized traditional American folk music and his style bears the influence of hours spent listening to country blues records and Smithsonian/Folkways field recordings; often in the garage. He currently lives in Duluth, Minnesota. Read more about Charlie Parr on Last.fm.

We Became Actors
From Minneapolis
First show since since April 25, 2007 • First Cabooze show • Fourth show on MN Live's calendar since November 30, 2006
From last.fm:
Originally forming in the fall of 2007, We Became Actors have a hard time standing still. They throw tambourines, clap hands, kick over cocktails. The latter on accident. Usually. Like a Sunday hangover, they're loud, bright and soaked in gin. They power through pop embellished with flourishes of delay and synthesizer. With the help of Darren Jackson (Kid Dakota, The Hopefuls), they recorded their debut, This Is Where We Stand, at Shortman Studio (Tapes n Tapes, Cloud Cult) for release Fall 2009.

Tim Mahoney
From Minneapolis
First show since since February 17, 2007 • First Cabooze show • 13th show on MN Live's calendar since July 20, 2003
From last.fm:
Over the past 10 years Tim Mahoney has undergone a transformation. One that began with the high-energy pop-rock band, the Blue Meenies--which quickly made its mark on the Twin Cities music scene, colleges, and clubs all over the midwest. His success allowed him to release 5 solo albums that have since sold over 80,000 copies and were well received by the strong audience he has built. He was choosing his own road and had interest from almost every major label. Naturally, he had expectations of "making it" with national tours, the swank tour bus, and a big record deal.
