Bring your lawn chairs for this outdoor show! If the weather does not cooperate we'll move it inside to the gallery.

Join us for an outdoor show with Midwest Americana band J Streitz and the Long Odds!

ABOUT THE BANDS

J STREITZ AND THE LONG ODDS: While playing bass in several Minneapolis bands spanning over two decades, Jason Streitz quietly wrote country, bluegrass and folk songs in his spare time. These songs, along with a handful of new tunes would become the foundation for The Long Odds.

In October of 2016 the band recorded their first full length album with engineer Nick Tveitbakk at the renowned Pachyderm Studios in Cannon Falls, MN. Level Ground was released in the winter of 2018 with special guest, fiddle player Allie Kral (Yonder Mountain String Band).

In August of 2019 Jason moved with his family from Minneapolis to the north woods of Wisconsin where they now own and operate a small pottery business out of an old 1921 schoolhouse. Operating now as J Streitz and the Long Odds, the band has completed their second full length album. Light Again was recorded at Zoo School Studio in St Croix Falls, WI and is set for release in August of ‘24.

J Streitz and the Long Odds have shared the stage with a wide range of national and regional acts including Sarah Shook and the Disarmers, Nathan Kalish, Invisible Boy, Kind Country, Gabe Barnett and Them Rounders, Bruise Violet, Jay Lenz (Pert Near Sandstone) at prominent midwest venues such as The Parkway Theater, Turf Club, Icehouse, Lee’s Liquor Lounge, The Cabooze, Como Dockside Pavilion, The Aster Café and Brickyard Pottery. Jason has been a guest on the Mad Ripple Hootenanny, hosted by Jim Walsh. He has opened as a solo act for several bands including David Huckfelt and Annie Humphrey and has appeared as a guest on the podcast “Glad You’re Here” with Grant Glad as well as the Wisconsin Pulic Radio program “Simply Superior” hosted by Robin Washington.
