This week one of the most ambitious and exciting local music events to happen in the Chippewa Valley debuts, and all week we’ll be covering it on air and online.
Consider Blugold Radio your home for a last minute cram session to get to know the artists/bands you’re gonna see but may not already know, and get excited to experience and sample an amazing and varied roster of local artists this Saturday night at The Plus.
Without further adieu, let’s introduce you to the first two:
sloslylove
sloslylove is a producer/beatmaker who puts out laid back, atmospheric dance tunes steeped in 80’s synths and a sci-fi feel. He was a 2016 Eaux Claires fest artist and an artist who performs very regularly in both the Chippewa Valley and in the Twin Cities (and who routinely tours in and outside of the country!)
Listen:
The Drunk Drivers are one of EC’s longest running bands, and they’ve been raising a ruckus and bringing rock ‘n’ roll to Chippewa Valley stages for 20+ years now. Their lives shows are rowdy and fun and need to be experienced (just know you’re going to be drenched in beer by the end of the show!). Also, it should be noted that Drunk’s member Jon Oldstadt is the mastermind and ringleader behind Sawdust City Limits. These guys have been a big part of the local music scene for a long, long time now and clearly from their continued work and dedication to the scene here we should expect them to continue being a fixture here for a long time to come.
