On Sept. 10, The Northern Skies will bring its "acoustic folk-rock with teeth" to the New Holland Brewing Company from 10:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m.
The Northern Skies' music is a symphonic blend of happiness and anecdotes. The soft, yet strong voice of Eric Engblade delivers powerful lyrics, such as those in Mission Accomplished, a song of afterthoughts about experiencing war. The music is full of heart and melodic, sometimes slightly melancholy stories of life.
The band is made up of members who come from very different backgrounds in terms of music, generation, and geography. This results in diverse influences, including indie rock groups and traditional bluegrass bands, which creates an exclusive, dynamic sound.
Together, co-songwriters and multi-instrumentalists Eric Engblade and Nathan Schleicher, violinist Emily Carlson, bassist Nic Cole, and drummer and percussionist Paul Wozniak compose eclectic, undeniably beautiful music.
The Northern Skies, formerly known as "Drake," performs more than 80 Midwest shows per year. Be sure to catch the band at the New Holland Brewing Company for only $5.00.
