THIS IS A FREE EVENT. 40-PERSON CAPACITY Mason grew up in Birmingham, AL, and began playing guitar around nine. He always had a fascination with making up riffs and songs, but never found an outlet for them. Finally, after years of playing in bands, Mason started finding confidence in his songwriting and began playing shows in summer 2023. He makes rock songs that dance around the spectrum of alt rock, shoegaze, post-punk, and power pop.<hr>Born and raised on the South Side of Milwaukee, Shontrail creates music shaped by isolation, late-night city life, underground culture, and self-reinvention. Pulling from dream pop, post-punk, shoegaze, alternative hip hop, and experimental indie music, his work blends distorted emotion with atmospheric worldbuilding. Beginning his music journey in 2021, Shontrail approaches each release as more than a collection of songs — treating sound, visuals, live performance, and identity as part of the same evolving universe. Without a traditional musical background, he developed his style through instinct, experimentation, and persistence, building his creative voice from the ground up.

The result is a twisting and tuneful psychedelic odyssey in miniature that gives full expression to indie rock's lo-fi soundworld tendency, while existing just outside of time. Vibrant, colourful melodies on Mellotron and electric guitar give wing to a boisterous new composer-performer persona with a retrofuturist Laurie Anderson sheen. "I'm comfortable with the aspects of my personality that maybe seem a bit more showy or flamboyant," he says. "And old enough to know that I can be comfortable with the aging man, mellowing out sort of vibe." Built from loops on a Yamaha eight-track cassette recorder, a pervasive heartbeat rhythm blurs the boundaries between tracks - in fact, the A side's three tracks are really distinct parts of a single flow, and seem to open in media res: "You move on / An ocean, you've been here / You know it / But you can't recall / How you made it through''. A shipwrecked sailor's affirmation of life, maybe, or the mantra that returns the storyteller to the beginning. All the while sheets of reverb wash in and out like saltwater on sand.”THE WIRE #499 September 2025, Ryan Meehan

David Francey is a Scottish-born Canadian carpenter-turned-songwriter, who has become known as “one of Canada’s most revered folk poets and singers” (Toronto Star). Born in Ayrshire, Scotland to parents who were factory workers, he moved to Canada when he was twelve. For decades, he worked across Canada in rail yards, construction sites, and in the Yukon bush, all the while writing poetry, setting it to melodies in his head and singing it to himself as he worked. &nbsp;A truly authentic folk singer, Francey is a documentarian of the working person who never imagined earning a living from his music. But when he was in his 40s, his wife, artist Beth Girdler, encouraged him to share his songs and sing in public. The reaction was instant. His first album Torn Screen Door came out in 1999 and was a hit in Canada. Since then, David has released thirteen albums, won four Juno Awards and has had his songs covered by such artists as The Del McCoury Band, The Rankin Family, James Keelaghan and Tracy Grammer. Francey also had the honour of receiving the prestigious SOCAN Folk Music Award as well as taking home the Grand Prize in both the International Acoustic Music Award and in the Folk category for the John Lennon Songwriting Award. &nbsp;"David’s straightforward songs tell honest stories of real people and real places. Poetic perception and a keen eye for the heart of the matter are trademarks of the man and his music. His songs and stories are a direct connection for audiences seeking depth and meaning in the day-to-day." Shelter Valley Folk Festival &nbsp;David Francey was born in Ayrshire, Scotland where he got his first taste of the working life as a paperboy. At age 10 he was devouring the newspapers he delivered, establishing a life-long interest in politics and world events while developing the social conscience that forms the backdrop of his songs. He was twelve when his family immigrated to Toronto. He says he can trace his love of the land, the history, and the people of his adopted country to weekend family drives exploring southern Ontario. Music played a large part in these family outings. They sang traditional Scottish tunes as they drove through the Canadian countryside. Dad and sister Muriel sang melody, while mother and David sang harmonies. His attachment to Canada grew with travel. He hitched across the country three times, then thumbed his way to the Yukon. This attachment surfaces in his songs of rail lines, farms, and the St. Lawrence Seaway. He grew to understand the people while working in Toronto train yards, the Yukon bush, and as a carpenter in the Eastern Townships. These experiences colour his first CD, Torn Screen Door, with songs like Hard Steel Mill, Gypsy Boys, and Working Poor and his second, Far End of Summer, with Highway, Flowers of Saskatchewan and February Morning Drive. &nbsp;In concert David is a singer and a storyteller. His wry humour and astute observations combined with his openhearted singing style have earned him a loyal following. David lives with his wife, artist <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="wixui-rich-text__text" href="http://bethgirdler.smugmug.com/Other/Beth-Girdler-Art/16167503_rt4Eq#!i=1213999929&amp;k=6yDJk">Beth Girdler</a> in the quiet but charming Lanark Highlands in southern Ontario.

Home for the Weekend is an alternative prog-rock trio originally from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Derek Wiedmeyer (vocals), Nick Magestro (guitar), and Emmett Wood (drums) make use of a vast array of styles and influences to create a blend of rock music uniquely it’s own - melodic structures and harmonies reminiscent of 90’s alternative, a syncopated chaos synonymous with heavy rock acts of the early 2000’s, and a consistent willingness to bend and expand their style all make it difficult to pinpoint what exact genre Home for the Weekend’s music truly is.

NOVEL FOLLY

"This is what you need to know about Daikaiju: They're loud. They're all instrumental (duh). And they're the band to see if you want to experience surf rock at its most offensive." - Kelly Weidman, The InformerDaikaiju is a mysterious chimera of sound and imagery that was first sighted in the winter of 1999. Entities of sonic mayhem, Daikaiju takes the sound of waves crashing and shrieking atomic lizards and makes it rock in a way that instills shock and awe in all who experience their shows-a highly interactive and confrontational performance that literally draws the audience into the massive vortex of sound generated by the band. Concealed behind masks, this troupe of mystery people create a mutant style of epic, high energy instrumental rock that seamlessly incorporates a wide variety of musical styles including surf, punk, noise, metal, psychedelic and progressive rock.Like its namesake, the music of Daikaiju is a great, mysterious beast. Compelling melodies, hard-hitting riffs and shifting dynamics fuse together to create songs that dare the listener to experience the secret history of the universe-a fantastic reality of giant monsters, super humans, and extraterrestrial invasions that unfolds like the soundtrack of the greatest monster movie never made.

Eloquently blending synth-folk, moody pop, club beats, and soaring vocal harmonies, Babes In Canyon crafts music that feels both immediately engaging and very much of the moment. Born from a spontaneous writing session during a winter storm blackout, the band naturally wandered into heavy beats, storytelling-driven lyrics, and synth-folk instrumentation with a twist. Lush and thoughtfully layered, what began as an exploration of the outer edges of Americana has evolved into a cohesive, enchanting artistic statement. With a run of national tours, festivals, and live performances under their belt, songwriters Nathan and Sophia Hamer conjure richly layered soundscapes, “looping keys, beats, percussion effortlessly in an electric, raucous live performance” (Atwood Magazine). The band has earned praise from outlets like Under The Radar, Magnet, and Big Takeover, building steady momentum along the way. Babes In Canyon’s debut album The New Loud was released in fall 2025. Expertly arranged, undeniably catchy, and comfortably blurring genre lines, the band stands ready to soundtrack your adventures—spontaneous or otherwise.

Milwaukee’s Barcode give their take on proper house music partying with their initiative, Press Play. Press Play delivers big sound, low lighting, and intimate vibrations all to put emphasis on what matters most: the music. Soundscapes will be provided by the following selectors: Mike Dunn: As an international touring DJ and Chicago House legend, Mike Dunn is one of the most important headlining acts to set foot in Milwaukee. His work can be traced all the way back to his 1987 release, “Dance You Mutha” on Westbrook Records. Mike Dunn’s recent hits “God Made Me Phunky” and “Phreaky MF”, both of which have been rereleased on Defected Records, have brought his sound to new audiences (Resident Advisor). After just coming off an unforgettable extended set at Chicago’s famous Smartbar, Mike Dunn is on a hot streak that is not to be missed.&nbsp; Twan: This Chicago native has been a rising favorite in Milwaukee. Twan is known for bringing soulful and energitic vibes to the dancefloor, which can be heard in his recent remix of CeCe Peniston’s “He Loves Me 2”. His long running residency at Chicago’s Celeste nightclub has solidified himself as a staple to the city and a pillar of the house scene. As this evening’s direct support to Mike Dunn, there’s no doubt that Twan will deliver an unforgettable set.&nbsp; Phlury &amp; Riptide: Opening up the evening are the masterminds behind Barcode and Milwaukee’s top selectors. Phlury &amp; Riptide combine hypnotic rhythms and driving bass lines to the dancefloor. Their weekly Saturday Barcode parties at Saint Bibiana have breathed new air into Milwaukee’s music scene. This work has caught attention outside of the city and has brought them to music city capitals such as Chicago, New York City, and Nashville.

Pareidolia

Echoes of time, light, and sound — A live tribute to Pink Floyd’s enduring music.Wonderful Bluffer:Since 2018, Wonderful Bluffer has sought nothing more than to disarm and enchant audiences with the undying spirit of rock n’ roll. In just a few short years, the Milwaukee-based rock band has managed to craft a style of music all their own, with influences spanning across many genres such as blues, folk, metal &amp; prog-rock.Triptych: TRIPTYCH emerged from Bremen’s post-COVID open mic scene, channeling raw energy into a sound that fuses grunge, indie rock, and psychedelic soul. Fronted by powerhouse vocalist and guitarist Christian Jackson, the trio is rounded out by percussion wizard Peter Behlmer and groove-heavy bassist Tlalok Rodriguez. Drawing influence from legends like Nirvana, Radiohead, The Beatles, Dinosaur Jr., and Jimi Hendrix, TRIPTYCH delivers dynamic sets that are as emotionally charged as they are sonically rich.

Obscured By Clouds: The Music of Pink Floyd Performed by Driven To Tears

Say hello to Alley Cats, our new quarterly series all about supporting Milwaukee’s community cats and the people who care for them! We’re kicking things off at Falcon Bowl with a cozy afternoon of fundraising, supply gathering, and adoptable cats who might just steal your heart (and your lap).&nbsp; We’ve teamed up with Urban Cat Coalition, a local org doing the real-deal work to help stray and feral cats through trap-neuter-return (TNR) and community education. They're out here making Milwaukee more cat-friendly, one alley at a time.&nbsp; Here’s what’s happening: adoptable cats* will be hanging out in the Falcon Nest, a quiet, cozy space for meet-and-greets (first come, first serve). Falcon Hall will be set up with card and board games (yes, some are cat-themed), and we’ll have a donation station stocked with UCC’s wishlist. If you can, please bring supplies (priority items are noted below). Drink specials will be flowing at the bar, and to attend there will be a $5-$10 suggested donation at the door.&nbsp; Whether you’re looking to adopt, donate, or just hang out with fellow cat lovers over a drink or two, Alley Cats is for you. Come show some love for Milwaukee’s alley dwellers, the feline kind and the human kind too.*Please note that pictured cats may not be present/available at time of event Urban Cat Coalitions Wishlist:Cat Litter (Clumping) Canned Cat Food (unopened)Dry Cat Food (unopened)Disposable Litter BoxesCat Litter MatsDisinfectant Cleaner &amp; Deodorizer (Veterinary Use Approved) Outdoor Heated Cat Food &amp; Water Bowls ToysCat Beds&amp; More (<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.amazon.com/registry/wishlist/2A1XMZY1B8KNR/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_ep_ws_Y3duzb2NS0TS0">See their Amazon Wishlist here</a>)About Urban Cat Coalition:&nbsp;Urban Cat Coalition is dedicated to helping create a no kill community by humanely reducing the community cat population in the Milwaukee area through targeted trap-neuter-return (TNR).
