First show on MN Live's calendar
From last.fm:
Down Lo formed when Northfield, MN natives Mark Grundhoefer (guitar, vocals) and Ryan Nielsen (bass) started jamming together in the summer of 2000 with good friend and drummer Casey Wasner. After playing many shows together in the Northfield area, the three parted ways in the fall of 2001 to pursue their own musical careers. After touring extensively with the band One Fluid Ounce, Ryan returned to the Twin Cities in the fall of 2002 and he and Mark, then playing with the band Gates Avenue, continued where they had left off a year before.

Nathan Miller
From Minneapolis
First show since since February 10, 2006 • First Varsity show • 10th show on MN Live's calendar since February 7, 2005
From last.fm:
"What is that instrument he's playing?" That's usually one of the first reactions to Nathan Miller. For the record it's an acoustic lap slide guitar. Its roots are from the 20s and 30s when Hawaiian music was all the rage. Today Nathan uses it for everything but Hawaiian music (maybe one day though). One listen and you wont care what instrument Nathan Miller is playing, but you will want more. Nathan Miller began playing guitar after hearing Jimi Hendrix’s “Purple Haze” on a record his mother bought him when he was 12. Read more about Nathan Miller on Last.fm.
