About this event
Minnesota troubadour Mason Jennings returns performing old favorites and work from his new album “Dark Wings.” “I love song craft,” says Mason Jennings, a folksinger who has spent over two decades honing his craft both on stage and in the studio. “A song is like a boat on the water, and you’re trying to make it float with as few pieces as possible.
If you do it right, a song can be very healing.” For Jennings, songwriting has always been about a personal connection, both with his audience and himself. He’s known for an unpretentious, emotive approach to folk music, combining introspective lyrics with acoustic melodies.

His work has drawn comparisons to genre greats, including Nick Drake, John Fahey, and Tom Waits. But Jennings’ sound is distinctly his own, one that blends vulnerability with strength, simplicity with complexity. That style comes through on his new record: “Dark Wings.”
His 18th studio album, the record finds Jennings moving between raw honesty about childhood scars, dark thoughts, spiritual questioning and a stubborn belief in the power of love. Duluth-based singer-songwriter and bandleader Breanne Marie of Breanne Marie & The Front Porch Sinners will open with a solo set. Advance E-tickets are available for $25 (plus $3.52 in fees) on Eventbrite HERE.
