Mae Simpson

If you missed her surprise gig last summer, you missed a lot. Even though she was part of a Mary Mack Northstar Comedy Hour, she left an indelible mark on the audience. Led by her powerful vocals, her seven-piece band brings audiences to their feet with driving horns and drums. The Minneapolis-based singer songwriter weaves elements of funk, soul, pop, rock and country into her sound. Mae and her bandmates leave it all on the stage. Their high-energy show creates a powerful connection with the audience. Simpson has opened for acts including Dermot Kennedy, Karl Denson’s Tiny Universe, Robert Clay, Ike Reilly, Langhorn Slim, RubbleBucket, and Pert Near Sandstone. She has performed multiple times on the iconic First Avenue main room, The Fillmore in Minneapolis, the Basilica Block Party, Live On King Street in Madison, Wisconsin, and the Blue Ox Music Festival. If you are a fan of artists like Alabama Shakes, Lake Street Dive and Bruce Springsteen, Mae Simpson is right up your alley. 

“It was a set that made you glad you were there, so you can tell everyone when Mae Simpson Music are huge, that you saw them “when.” -Richard Dollarhide of Music in Minnesota
