This Saturday at 7:30pm! Daisy May and Little Dipper

"One of the Midwest’s (and northern Michigan's) most prolific and passionate songwriters, May Erlewine (Daisy May) isn’t afraid to say the hard thing."

"From boot-stomping anthems to heartstring-pulling ballads, Little Dipper delivers the songs you grew up loving—played the way they were meant to be played."

Doors open at 6:30pm
