For the last 8+ years, Minneapolis based Potluck String Band has been entertaining music lovers across the greater Midwest with their unique Americana/New Grass sound. Known for having up to 9 musicians on stage at times, PSB delivers an energetic, artfully blended String Band sound in support of their powerful and tightly woven 4 Part vocal harmonies. PSB released their first album, “Americana Underground” in September 2022.
The band organically evolved from a “Friday Potluck” open jam session they started in 2014. Over time, the group grew as friends brought new friends to join in, eventually resulting in the band officially forming in 2016.
Since then, PSB has maintained a busy schedule playing shows in many different venues and locations for all kinds of events, celebrations, and festivals. In addition, the band has gained recognition for creating and hosting an Open Jam at their campsite during Bluegrass Festivals, where musicians of all talent levels can join in the pickin’ circle.
The audience can feel and share in Potluck String Band’s love of playing music together for all to enjoy!

The High Rev. is an ordained minister, folk singer, and dime store poet whose approach is unorthodox in all facets. His artistry is rooted in a deep exploration of life's contradictions—seeking meaning in the mundane, uncovering beauty in the ugly, finding hope in despair, and uncovering the sacred in the irreverent.
In his music, The High Rev. invites listeners to sit with discomfort, to embrace the tension of life’s paradoxes, and find unexpected moments of beauty along the way. He crafts a sound and message that speaks to the heart and soul—where faith and debauchery, poetry and vulgarity, and frustration and understanding occupy a shared space.
