Matt picked up the banjo and Jenny gravitated to upright bass. From here they slowly shaped their band and the old-time goodness of their setlists which draws from bluegrass to old time\, to folk and blues their music covering the gamut of americana. Matt\, who grew up the son of a Texas Western Swing fiddle player\, has recently started bringing more Bob Wills and western swing tunes into the group. Jenny\, one of the main songwriters in the band has been adding in original tunes that blend well into the mix. \nThad Miller\, fiddler extraordinaire\, joined the band in 2019.  He has become an integral part of their sound\, with his fiery fast fiddle runs and high lonesome harmonies and vocal leads.  Joel Grenemeier\, a bluegrass veteran of the Lincoln scene\, brought his dulcet tenor and mandolin sound to the Wanderers in early 2022. Rounding out the Sound is Colten Welch with his lightning-fast guitar licks and rhythm\, bringing a fun energy to the group. \nThe Midnight Wanderers really are a collaborative effort. Taking turns singing lead and picking songs keep the set diverse. And with tunes curated from so many genres including classic rock\, Western swing\, country and bluegrass there’s something for everyone. \nhttps://themidnightwanderers.com/ \nPrice is $10- $20 suggested and encouraged (all door proceeds go to the musicians) \n  \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Aug 2\, 20258:00 PM\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n What’s Next at the Liederkranz URL:https://giliederkranz.org/event/liederkranz-live-the-midnight-wanderers/ LOCATION:Liederkranz\, 401 W 1st Street\, Grand Island\, NE\, 68801\, United States CATEGORIES:August ORGANIZER;CN="Liederkranz Live Music":MAILTO:info@giliederkranz.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20250816T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20250817T140000 DTSTAMP:20260404T144152 CREATED:20250715T204712Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250715T205039Z UID:4853-1755342000-1755439200@giliederkranz.org SUMMARY:Craft Brew and Sausage Fest DESCRIPTION:Craft Brew & Sausage Fest\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nHome\n|\nEvents\n|\nCraft Brew & Sausage Fest\n\n \n \n \n \n \n Get ready to experience the best beers and sausages Nebraska has to offer while enjoying live music in our beautiful courtyard. \nJoin us Saturday\, August 16th from 4:00 to 7:00 PM for the annual Craft Brew & Sausage Fest! \nPrice is $45.00 \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n click the ticket to purchase\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n click the ticket to purchase\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n What’s Next at the Liederkranz URL:https://giliederkranz.org/event/craft-brew-and-sausage-fest/ LOCATION:Liederkranz\, 401 W 1st Street\, Grand Island\, NE\, 68801\, United States CATEGORIES:August ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://giliederkranz.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Copy-of-Craft-Beer-Sausage-Fest-Color.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20250821T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20250822T210000 DTSTAMP:20260404T144152 CREATED:20241030T040754Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250731T220451Z UID:4422-1755799200-1755896400@giliederkranz.org SUMMARY:Liederkranz Live: Dana Cooper DESCRIPTION:Dana Cooper\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nHome\n|\nEvents\n|\nDana Cooper\n\n \n \n \n \n \n  August 21\, 2025 \n7 PM (doors open at 6:00)  – Dana Cooper \nLIVE in Person \n“Dana has a poet’s eye for beauty & detail\, a blue’s man’s soul\, and a songbird’s gift. He is remarkable.” Hayes Carll \n“The album (The Ghost of Tucumcari) is 5 star Grammy material.” Shake Russell \n“He leaves us thinking\, as only the best songwriters do.” Jim Hynes – Glide Magazine  \n“Blown Away. The Title Cut! What can I say but “Meow.”  Marilyn Rea Beyer  WFMT \n“Genius” Tom Tranchilla KPFT \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDana Cooper’s musical journey began at the young age of 2 when his father would prop him on the bar to sing along with the jukebox. Coming from Missouri\, Cooper was surrounded by the sounds of classic country and folk music from an early age. He quickly became enamored with the guitar and taught himself to play and to harmonize vocally by listening to records. By his teenage years\, Cooper was performing in coffee houses and clubs around Kansas City\, honing his skills as a singer\, songwriter and guitarist. \n\nIn the 1970s\, Cooper landed a record deal with Elektra Records and released his acclaimed self-titled debut album in 1972. Backed by renowned LA studio musicians “The Section\,” including Leeland Sklar and Russ Kunkel\, the album showcased Cooper’s lyrical depth and virtuoso guitar playing. \n\nFor over a decade\, he was half of the highly acclaimed duo – The Shake Russell/Dana Cooper band\, who garnered a large following in Texas as well as appearing on Austin City Limits. Through the 70s and 80s\, he built his reputation on the club circuit while also collaborating with artists like Lyle Lovett\, Kim Carnes\, Susan Werner\, Kim Richey\, Hal Ketchum & more. \n\nOver his 50+ year career\, Cooper has amassed a catalog of 30+ albums and continues to tour actively. He is set to release his highly anticipated 32nd studio album\, “The Ghost of Tucumcari”\, on May 17\, 2024. Featuring an All-Star lineup of guest artists\, the album marks a major achievement for the veteran musician. Artists lending their voices to this project are Lyle Lovett\, Hayes Carll\, Susan Gibson\, Mando Saenz\, Darden Smith\, Shake Russell\, Libby Koch and more. \n\n“The Ghost of Tucumcari” takes listeners on a stirring musical journey across genres from Folk and Rock to Country and Americana. His critically acclaimed 2022 release\, “I Can Face the Truth\,” encapsulates his evolution as a consummate storyteller. The album mixes his signature fingerpicking guitar and harmonica with poignant lyrics on love\, loss and the current state of the world. \n\nCentral to Cooper’s unique artistry is his ability to connect with audiences through his authentic stories and warm stage presence. His decades of experience shine through in the ease and humor he brings to both his playing and storytelling. Though he’s performed with Folk and Americana greats\, Cooper has always followed his own musical vision. \n\n“Few artists can claim to make music for 50 years and still do so with the same eagerness and enthusiasm that marked their initial efforts.” Lee Zimmerman\, American Songwriter. \n\nDana Cooper remains driven by his pure love for songwriting and performing\, bringing people together through songs.

In a home that is heated with wood\, he is also mastering splitting and stacking firewood\, which he says is “one of the best things a person can do with a winter afternoon.” \nIt is in this setting that Depew writes and creates music. Depew’s earliest memories involve music while playing instruments on the porch with his dad in the evenings. \nSuch intimacy is what Depew achieves with his latest release of songs. At first one may want to say the songs are simple and straightforward as an Americana song seems. But the complex layers of Depew’s music subtly unfold. The lyrics are often haunting and longing\, guided by the mastery of instruments. The beauty and hardship of life weave together in each piece. I really enjoyed listening on a poetic level\, the writing\, and story that carries the song\, combined with the pleasure of the music itself. \nPrice is $10- $20 suggested and encouraged (all door proceeds go to the musician) \n  \n  \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Friday December 06\, 2024 7:00 PM\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n What’s Next at the Liederkranz URL:https://giliederkranz.org/event/john-depew/ CATEGORIES:January END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20260116T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20260117T220000 DTSTAMP:20260404T144155 CREATED:20251027T160842Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251227T165648Z UID:5163-1768590000-1768687200@giliederkranz.org SUMMARY:Liederkranz Live: Gallivant DESCRIPTION:Gallivant \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nHome\n|\nEvents\n|\nGallivant / Head Change / Underbite\n\n \n \n \n \n \n January 16\, 2026 @ 8:00 PM (doors open at 6:00)  \nThree Band show with: \nGallivant \nHead Change \nand  \nUnderbite \nAdvanced Tickets  $25  \nDoor Tickets $35  \nFor Tickets: \nhttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/gallivanthead-changeunderbite-tickets-1978744067773 \n \n \nGallivant\nOne more song\, one more song\, one more song… \n\n“Gallivant: One of the Best BandsYou’ve Never Heard of\n\n\nPutting their own spin on covers like Mississippi Queen and belting out originals…” \n \n \n\n“Let’s Make Some Sound!\n\n\nWhatever the allure\, Gallivant has established itself as an Omaha rock band that doesn’t just shred; it also connects to audiences in a way that keeps crowds chanting\, “One more song!” at the end of every performance.”  \n \n \n\n\nShort Shorts\, Tube Socks\, Long Hair\, And Good Ol’ Fashioned Rock n Roll!

Germans consider this time “the fifth season” of the year\, and it starts on November 11\, or specifically\, on 11.11 at 11:11 am. The festivity will reach its peak the following year with a six-day celebration that ends before Ash Wednesday (March5\, 2025). That’s right; it’s the last days of eating\, drinking\, and merriment before the start of Lent. \nIn other words\, the party lasts and lasts and lasts for nearly 4 months! \nWhat is a Lumpenball?\nThe Lumpenball is the last of the last Parties of Fasching! \n-and arguably the best of the Fashing Parties! \nIn German\, Lumpen is translated as “rags” or “Ragamuffin”…. and a Ball is\, well\, a Ball\, with dancing. \nA Lumpenball\, in translation\, is a Ragamuffin Ball or a dress down to raggy clothing ball- no need to dress fancy ball. \nThe idea is to attend these balls AFTER Fasching\, since you spent all of your money on your New and Fancy Easter outfit (which is hidden away until Easter Sunday)\, Fashing costumes\, drinking\, partying\, and more partying\, all you might have left is just enough to dress in rags or in the best and preferred cases…you only have your old party battered\, worn out and torn costume to wear! \nA Badge of Pride:  Maybe the more wore out your costume has become… it will be seen as sign of how much fun and parting you did! (Drinking\, stumbling\, falling\, tearing holes\, no washing\, drinking\, stumbling\, snagging tearing holes\, no washing\, repeat the next day…my suit is trashed along with me!) \nIn eras and days gone by\, a priority would have been to purchase a new and extremely nice outfit for Easter Sunday.  An outfit to wear to church service and be seen in.  This of course\, would have been done in the midst of the Fasching and would have been a first priority\, thus adding to the idea of having spent a lot of money and only wanting to wear raggy clothing to the party-a Lumpenball.  These Easter Best outfits would have been set aside and not worn until Easter Sunday. \nEnjoy the below videos of Lumpenball’s in Germany \n  \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Saturday March 1\, 2025 7:00 PM\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n What’s Next at the Liederkranz URL:https://giliederkranz.org/event/lumpenball-german-mardis-gras/ CATEGORIES:February END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20260207T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20260208T230000 DTSTAMP:20260404T144155 CREATED:20250202T022928Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260204T174823Z UID:4606-1770490800-1770591600@giliederkranz.org SUMMARY:Angie Kriz and the PolkaToons DESCRIPTION:Angie Kriz and the Polkatoons \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nHome\n|\nEvents\n|\nLive Music\n \n-Angie Kriz and PolkaToons\n\n \n \n \n \n \n Saturday February 7\, 2026 –Angie Kriz and PolkaToons \n7 PM  \nLIVE in Person \nAngie Kriz and The PolkaToons play mostly Czech polkas and waltzes but also add lots of variety and fun to their parties!
