# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Rich Mattson and The Northstars, Lone Rock Bride, The Swongos 
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 27 Feb, 2026 at 07:30 pm – Fri, 27 Feb, 2026 at 11:30 pm
- **Event Description**: Over the course of his long and illustrious musical career sprouting from the same teal backwater as Bob Dylan on northern Minnesota’s Iron Range, Rich Mattson came up in the '80s learning songs from John Denver to Link Wray with a little Elvis Costello and Neil Young tossed into the mix. Add in some heaping handfuls of U2, the Replacements, and CCR and blend until the ingredients come splattering in bits and pieces and you have around 500 tunes and this fella’s monster discography (see also Ol’ Yeller, the Tisdales, Glenrustles). Now residing in Sparta MN with his life and love partner Germaine Gemberling, the two have been writing, recording, and performing (among other things) together since 2010. The latest incarnation of the Northstars features retired fireman Chris Petrack on the drums, and new bassist Calvin Lund, also known for his work with the Saltydogs (Duluth MN’s premier jam band). Their 6 albums have received rave reviews and high praise from the indie rock/americana/jangle-core crowd, making them an underground sensation.
