Nearly 90 years late to the game, he’s still swinging hard for dancers with his band, sax, singing voice and original compositions that all sound straight out of 1939. Each show is fresh and will leave you wondering what’s gonna happen next. All you’re sure of is that it will be solid in the groove.
As entertaining as he sounds, Mohney has proven it countless times. At home in CO at venues like Dazzle or the Mercury Cafe, he kills, as well as on his frequent tours which take him and his band all over the US. He recently came out with two digital albums, “Live at the Mercury Cafe” and “KGNU Air Checks”. They’re both available on all major sites, like iTunes/Apple Music and Spotify. Jeremy’s also starting a podcast which will feature he and his band’s playing, his original compositions, guests to play, sing, make us laugh and more.
Inspired by the home of our brewery, Jeremy composed “The Berthoud Bump”: click to listen.

The Dugan Irby Band
(The DIB)
—
The DIB’s music is best described as Modern Americana that blends a variety of styles, creating a listening experience that all will enjoy.
The band sprung up from the foot of Bighorn Mountains next to Sheridan, Wyoming. Their sounds consist of members: Dugan Irby (vocals, guitar and writing), Rod Jost (bass, sound, and management), and Titus Brown (drums, percussion, vocals). Together these young, yet seasoned musicians craft their sound from a rich and eclectic catalogue of musical experiences.
This can best be seen in their recent debut album recorded at the Cabin Studio in Nashville, TN. Each track will resonate in your soul from the simple and common experience of “Early Morning Blues” to the age old question of what are you “Looking For”.
Come sit on the metaphorical front porch with the Dugan Irby Band and make a memory that will bring a smile to your soul!

Mascot Theory Duo
2023-10-13 18:00 - 20:30
The Mascot Theory has been kicking around Wisconsin weekend-warrior style for the past decade, but like many musicians, the great pandemic-induced entertainment halt of 2020 forced the band to reflect and refocus musical efforts. With the core foundation of singer/songwriter Erik Kjelland and the rhythm section of Nick Fry on bass guitar and Paul Metz on drums, The Mascot Theory used this time off to slightly shift their sound away from their acoustic-driven folk-rock music and into a more classic rock inspired Rock and Roll groove, especially thanks to the addition of lead guitarist Cory Swadley who brings a strong musical swagger and reverence to the guitar gods of the past. In 2021 the band made a major leap towards a more national focus when they were discovered and signed by manager Chuck Toler of TolerVision LLC, who helped steer the careers of artists like Cheap Trick and Mudvayne. Toler circulated the band’s music around to trusted colleagues in the business leading to famed producer Terry Manning (Led Zeppelin, ZZ Top, Shakira, Lenny Kravitz, Stax Record) taking an interest in the band and agreeing to produce their next full-length album that will be released in 2023. In April 2022 Manning and the band assembled at Sonic Ranch Studios near El Paso, TX to record 15 songs.
Along with a WAMI (Wisconsin Area Music Industry) win for Best Male Vocalist (Erik Kjelland) and many WAMI nominations for Best Americana/folk artist, The Mascot Theory has won over 20 MAMA (Madison Area Music Association) awards including Artist of the Year. They have played major festivals throughout Wisconsin including Summerfest, Freak Fest, and Mile of Music Festival, and have shared the stage with BoDeans, America, Don McLean, Vance Joy, Frank Turner, Chase Rice, Kaleo, The Wild Feathers, Guster, Blitzen Trapper, Cory Chisel, Andy Frasco and the UN, Miles Nielsen and the Rusted Hearts, American Aquarium, and Lillie Mae.
The new music travels into its classic rock influences; harmonies that bring to mind the Eagles or Poco, a bit of that Rolling Stones guitar swagger, a little ZZ Top blues rock, a dash of the Pink Floyd mood, but never straying far from the core of the Tom Petty/Beatle-esque importance of solid melody and lyrics. Songs like “When I Drift Away”, “Lavender Blues” and “Fast Car Getaway” showcase the new album’s infectious energy and beautiful harmonies within an eclectic landscape of well-crafted and memorable songs.

Waffle Lab
2023-12-08 16:00 - 20:00
Highly Evolved Waffles –> Waffle Lab
Founded in April 2012 in Old Town Fort Collins, Colorado, The Waffle Lab specializes in gourmet Belgian-style Liège waffles. Using our signature “classic” waffle as the base, we create amazing sweet and savory waffle combinations. Perfect for breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner and dessert, the hardest part of The Waffle Lab experience is choosing from our mouth-watering menu.
WHAT IS A LIEGE WAFFLE?
Originally developed in Belgium, the Liège (pronounced “lee-ayjh”) waffle is unlike any waffle you’ve ever had. Made from yeast-leavened dough (not a batter) and specially imported Belgian pearl sugar, this mouth-watering piece of heaven is guaranteed to put a smile on your face. Baked at the perfect temperature, the sugar pearls melt on the inside and caramelize on the outside for a sweet, delicate crunch. Believe us, this waffle is sweet and moist enough on its own—no syrup necessary!
