    Liederkranz Live: Alli and I // Brad Hoffman //

    Liederkranz 401 W 1st Street, Grand Island, NE, United States

    Alli And i
    Alli and I began their journey in 2007 when Andrew Standley took his guitar, Alli, to the corner of 7th & P Streets and sang for passersby in the Historical Haymarket of Lincoln, Nebraska.

    It’s been almost 17 years since then, and the acoustic ensemble is rolling stronger than ever with dozens of tour dates and their new release out now. THE DOTTED LINES EP packs the punch of a thousand thoughts, with anthems written about, and from the road.

    Over the past decade and a half, Alli and I have made hundreds upon hundreds of friends; have played LIVE everywhere from Boston to Los Angeles; from Minneapolis to San Antonio. Pair that with the long discography of two full length records, three EPs, and a LIVE record, it's clear that Alli and I can deliver both on stage and in the studio.
