With clear, fascinating lyrics and stunning harmonies, Frontier Ruckus is a folk-rock band that everyone in Michigan can be proud of. They should be playing on every late-night tv show and on the radio of every rusting 1980’s pickup truck. They should be snaking up through your little white earbuds as you walk through slush towards class.

Also performing at the Strutt on saturday night will be Ohio’s equally stunning folk act White Pines, and all residents of Ohio should be as proud. Joseph Scott has a glowing ember for a voice. For real.

Local bumpkins Son Drop will play a lil’ rock and roll to get the night started. Tickets are $8 at the door.
