Jan 17th 2023 - For Immediate ReleaseA COUPLE OF ROAD DOGS WALK INTO A BAR IN INDIANAPOLIS…On Friday February 3rd, Duke’s Indy will host a very special night with Nashville’s intrepid roots-rock multi instrumentalist/songwriter Mike Younger and supported by local Indianapolis folk/punk troubadour Jethro Easyfields. The two met in the streets of New Orleans some 20 years ago as street performers/fledgling songwriters, and recently reconnected to perform together in Indianapolis in the fall of 2022.Mike Younger is currently based in Nashville, where The Nashville Scene referred to him as an “outstanding soulful songsmith” in a recent piece on his fifth official release - 2021’s Burning The Bigtop Down, an album recorded with some of Rock and Roll’s most cherished OGs.Having played over 100 club and festival shows in 2022 from New York to Los Angeles and most places in between, Mr. Younger’s music continues to earn him new fans at every stop. He is a vivid lyricist beyond the confines of Nashville’s current formulaic pop-country, with tales from the streets and from the road steeped in blues, country, folk and rock n roll.Jethro Easyfields is a veteran of the Indy music scene whose rowdy midwestern country blues sound made him a stand-out against a backdrop of jazz and zydeco in the New Orleans’ French Quarter of the 1990s, where these two survivors first crossed paths. Mr. Easyfields is one of Indy’s best kept secrets. Rumor has it they will be joined on Feb 3rd by another Indy music veteran Thom Woodard, recently dubbed “The Hardest Working Man in Indiana” by NUVO.For more info, please contact Divinerum Music Group at divinerumpromotions@gmail.com
DEPICTED as a frozen tundra populated with more cows than people in NFL game ads, Green Bay is stepping out as a four-season, long-weekend haven. (For the record: A local in the know shared that film producers drive a good 30 minutes out of downtown to find cows.)
That said, Lambeau Field is something to see. The tour is super interesting even if you’re not into sports. Turns out, the history and pedigree of the 13-time league champion Green Bay Packers is filled with intrigue, dashed dreams, and unexpected triumphs. And you get to run through the players’ tunnel out to the field to exhilarating music and cheers of “Go, Pack, Go!” It’s pretty cool.
That out of the way, move on to The Automobile Gallery. Displaying cars like art, the gleaming space is more Guggenheim than garage. The pop culture–driven collection spans more than a century. Ogle a 1963 Corvette, go back to the future in a 1981 DeLorean, and take a peek at the classic truck exhibit space. At least 100 pristine vehicles are here at any given time. Get your cheese fix (this is Wisconsin) with a charcuterie class at Bountiful Boards, a fromagerie showcasing the most buttery, delicate, sweet, and nutty cheeses from nearby farms. Two words: Marieke gouda.
Work off the creamy goodness on a rental from the Broken Spoke Bike Studio. Take the flat Fox River bike trail 6 miles south to the De Pere Riverwalk and Wildlife Viewing Pier. (Be on the lookout for an American white pelican.) End the day at Titletown. The entertainment district just west of Lambeau Field hosts 70 vendors at its night market. Enjoy the public park with outdoor games, a playground, and a football field expressly built for public romping. In the winter, find an ice-skating rink and a tubing hill. Titletown is also home to the buzzy Hinterland Brewery.
