Rogue Valley

Friday, August 23, 2024, 7:30 PM - 9:30 PM

Rogue Valley is based in the Twin Cities where the blend of urban development and natural landscape converge along the shores of the Mississippi River.

The first single from Rogue Valley’s upcoming set, titled Twin Parallel, went live on June 2nd, with a new single to be released every three weeks until the album drops in-full later this Fall, on October 13th. The new album, titled Shell Game, is a nod to natural and created structures that both contain and obscure.

A cocoon yields a butterfly; a riverbed holds a story; a body houses a soul; a shell mirrors the meditative drone of an ocean crashing onto itself. For every journey, there are moments and minutiae in between as bright or dark as any greater narrative. Shell Game is a 20-song set which roams territory both familiar and which also furthers the idea of Americana and the Rogue Valley aesthetic.

Several of the songs feature performances from The Laurels String Quartet, cellist Dan Lawonn, multi-instrumentalist Jillian Rae, and banjo from Pete Hennig. Rogue Valley’s forthcoming album promises to be their most sonically rich and intricate, yet.
