Common Lady – EP Release Show
Common Lady, formed from Midwest friends-of-friends, makes their debut with their first EP and their first performance as a full ensemble. The songs began as singer-songwriter Emma Deihl’s quiet reflections—soft reckonings with the constant becoming of one’s twenties, where change, heartbreak, and celebration blur together. At first simple, acoustic chords and vocal melodies, the songs longed for a sound expansive enough to hold the full emotional swell behind them. Thus, Emma sought musicians to bring her musings to life, and Common Lady was born. Blending elements of jazz, folk, and pop, Common Lady collectively crafts simultaneously catchy and deeply felt songs, reaching for relatability without sacrificing lyrical specificity. Produced by Sam Tudor, who also plays drums live and adds violin to the record, the music is shaped by Andrew Bien’s luminous jazz piano and Michael Vandervennet’s steady, soulful bass. The EP also features contributions from dear friends and talented musicians: Gabby Keisel on saxophone, Emily Bergstedt on trumpet, and Seth Bergstedt on trombone. Together, Common Lady creates music that feels both intimate and shared: tender stories unfolding within a rich, collaborative landscape of sound. They are honored to share these songs with their first live audience at Amsterdam Bar & Hall.
Eli Orion – Singing of Horses and Violent Skies with Sophie Hiroko, Peeler, and Squinny
Sophie Hiroko is a singer/songwriter native to Duluth, MN, and a daughter of Lake Superior. She describes the genre of music she creates as “tender bubble grunge”, marrying soft vocals to a grungy backing band. Hiroko draws inspiration from themes of death, rebirth, social justice, and girlhood. Her sound can be compared to the Lilith Fair and femme grunge movements of the ‘90s. Fans of The Breeders, The Sundays, Mazzy Star, and Juliana Hatfield will love Sophie Hiroko.Eli Orion is a wild horse, a wide-angle sunrise over a field, and a deific lightning strike; “a whirlwind of impressive production, self-aware narratives, and hooks that [demand] festivals.” – Logan Lamers, fsmPeeler is a 4 piece irregular rock band from Minneapolis, Minnesota. Their debut EP, Best Kept Secret, came out May 2025. Stay ultra hype always.Squinny is a Minneapolis psych fuzz four-piece. Synth and riff-heavy, the group’s high-energy performances are home to both dancing and head-banging.
