Songwriters Series #69 will feature original music performed by The Abiders "power trio": the band’s dynamic singer/songwriter, Julie Weisenhorn, on vocals and rhythm guitar; Karlos Weisenhorn icing the proverbial musical cake with his cross-harp riffs reminiscent of John Mayall, Junior Wells, and Paul Butterfield; and Scott Dee with his unique, melodic style of percussive bass guitar on Fender Precision Bass, Stingray bass and Hofner “Beatle bass”.

The Hallberg Center for the Arts, nestled in Wyoming, MN just north of the Twin Cities, is owned and operated by the Wyoming Area Creative Arts Community. In 2015, this young organization raised enough money to purchase this historic old church building with the vision of turning it into a center for the arts. It's named after it's biggest donor, the Hallberg Family Foundation. Today, the Hallberg Center for the Arts hosts new exhibits, concerts, and classes every month, bringing in artists from throughout the Midwest to share their artwork in this unique venue.
