Twine, out of Minneapolis plays Friday, April 17 at 9:00 pm at Murphy’s Pub & Grill in Rapid City
The group includes Will Effertz (electric guitar, vocals), Jon Miller (acoustic guitar, vocals), Brian “Snowman” Powers (saxophone), Scott Yonke (bass), and John Hanson (drums). They build their sets in real time, listening closely to each other and letting the room influence where things go.
Their sound sits in that familiar lane. Allman Brothers, Phish, Grateful Dead, with a mix of funk, folk, and blues worked in. They’ve been building a following around the Twin Cities playing late sets and after-shows, the kind of slots where the crowd is already in it and the band can push things a little further than a standard set.
The live show mixes original material with covers that span a few generations, depending on where the night ends up. Word is Johnny Hastings might swing by after Guitar Masters and sit in for a few songs. The pieces are there for one of those unforgettable nights. A band that builds in real time, and a player like Johnny stepping in. You’re either there for it or you hear about it later.
Give them a listen:
