  10. Caroline Smith and the Goodnight Sleeps
  11. The entire crew over at Doomtree (Dessa, Cecil Otter, P.O.S.)
  12. The Floorbirds
  13. Trampled By Turtles
  14. Mason Jennings
  15. Charlie Parr
  16. Peter Wolf Crier (for those of you who know me, yes I will include these guys)

On the dance side of things, we also have some great jazz ensembles to get our dance on to:

  1. I remembered more!
    There is also some really great bluegrass that MN has to offer, such as: The Roe Family Singers and Pocahontas County.
    There is also Unknown Prophets, Jack Klatt and the Cat Swingers, and Mississippi Peace.
