Step aboard for an evening of luminous songwriting, rich harmonies, and heartfelt storytelling as The Friend Ship bring their distinctive blend of folk, Americana, and modern sonic textures to the Grange.
The Friend Ship, a "new supergroup" according to Diane Miller of The Current, is a collective of acclaimed Twin Cities singer-songwriters:
-
Nikki Lemire, an award-winning harpist and songwriter whose music feels both timeless and strikingly new
-
Matthew French, an award-nominated Americana artist known for vulnerable, big-hearted songwriting
-
Joel Sax, whose long-awaited debut "Billions of Stars" captured a lifetime of love, regret, and hope
-
Marc Severin, a beloved voice in the Minnesota music scene blending environmental spirit with Midwestern country storytelling
- Dave Mehling, a dynamic and deeply expressive performer whose work spans indie rock, folk, and the avant-garde
Together, they create an evening that is as much about connection as it is about music—sharing songs, stories, and the kind of moments that linger long after the last note fades.
Whether you come for the artistry, the atmosphere, or the sense of community, this is a night to settle in, listen deeply, and be carried somewhere beautiful.
