Cory Coffman is a Duluth, MN songwriter, arranger and multi-instrumentalist blending a bohemian-punk ethos with an indie-pop sound. Presenting poetic depth and musical thoughtfulness, Coffman is witty enough to laugh with, yet endearing enough to cry to. In his debut album, Coffman paints his place as an artist worth listening to. Canvas and Color is as much about hopeful new beginnings as it is the nostalgic past. With heartwarming lyrics and subtle satire, Coffman pairs simple chord progressions with sweet melodies that speak to the innocence in us all. Canvas and Color brings a carefree attitude to an age of frustrated confusion. Coffman has established himself as a prominent figure in the music scene of Duluth, Minnesota. His work as a freelance drummer and percussionist over the past decade has curated a diverse performance background. This variety of musical experiences can be heard in songs that feature a wide range of genres and a strong sense of rhythm.

Side String Band formed out of a desire to make pure music true to the soul. Consisting of sidemen from various acoustic bands in the Midwest, Side String Band yearns to bring back the sound of old time bluegrass with progressive folk undertones. The band has collectively been influenced by this authentic American music over many collective years of performance. Each member contributes their craft and as a result, the sound is diverse and unified in its goal.

Side String Band is Harrison Olk (Tin Can Gin, Kind Country, Cascade Crescendo) on banjo and vocals; Nate Hynum (Black River Revue) on mandolin and vocals; Clancy Ward (Sugar on the Roof, Dickel Brothers) on fiddle and vocals; and Adam Staupe (Feeding Leroy) on the double bass and guitar. Often, as is tradition in the bluegrass and old-time music scene, Side String Band invites fellow musicians to join them on stage as they enjoy performing amongst a large community of musicians from all over the country. Side String Band is dedicated to making working people’s music; whether raw and fast or slow and sweet, the music tells the story and the members of Side String Band are the messengers. From toe tapping fiddle tunes to instant classic originals their roots are evident throughout each unique performance.

"A robot rolled into a bar..."
Are robots our future overlords that need a sense of humor to deal with the human condition or are they helpful automated healthcare aids? What societal messages could become unfortunately re-enforced or fought?
Itching to contribute to fight society's battles right now?
Come to our first Beer and Bots with jokes and better yet, dirty jokes 😏 to share! We are collecting intel for a project to provide humor to elders in care by automated robotic healthcare aids. Be part of society transformation and peek under the hood (or peer into a computer) to see how robots are programmed and join us for Beer and Bots!
These incredibly smart robots were cretaed by Dr. Arshia Khan, a Professor of Computer Science at the University of Minnesota Duluth's Swenson College of Science and Engineering. Her programmed robots connect with nursing home residents through risqué jokes, a concept requested by the very population they are meant to serve.
Dr. Kahn has since made international news for her groundbreaking research being featured by CBS News, NY Times, NPR, Science Times, and several other publications!
Check it out 👉 http://www.d.umn.edu/~akhan
While her robots are starting to connect with nursing home residents across Minnesota, this is one of the rare opportunities to interact with these robots in public! Bring your dirty, risque, and downright disgusting jokes to share!
Join us from 5-7pm on the 3rd Friday of the month through the end of the year to drink beer with these famous robots!

Come hang with Rachel, the smiling face behind Tbsp. Waffles and enjoy a gourmet waffle (Pro-Tip is get 2 at a minimum to start) Soooo good!

Here's her story and why we love he and her amazing waffles so much!
"I’ve been doing this over 4 years & I’ve never actually introduced myself...
I started Tbsp. while finishing college (hey gophers). I realized the Twin Cities was lacking liège waffles so I ran with it! Spent 6 months creating a brand & brioche-like waffle recipe with the help of my roommates constant taste testing. Added a few awesome team members along the way. Now 4 years later things look a little different, but my love for feeding people a delicious waffle hasn’t! So incredibly grateful for all the support from the beginning 💙"
