Michael Monroe vocals, guitars, bamboo & crystal flutes (LIVE Looping)
+Mystery Special Guests
From vinyl to digital, Monroe is celebrating 55 years performing acoustic music for his profession. He’s recorded 19 cds and a vinyl or two. He plays hand-crafted Seaton guitars, which are “works of art,” made of 200 year-old reclaimed wood from the bottom of Lake Superior and made on the Gunflint Trail. His rich vocals and crystal/bamboo flutes showcase his signature mellifluous sound. Monroe has always embraced “…technology as an instrument…” (Jon Bream Star Tribune) and though vinyl has become trendy again, digital technology has been his music medium of choice. He was a ‘looper’ in 1990, long before it became mainstream and he could be considered the one of the ‘grandfathers’ of LIVE looping.
