Singer-songwriter Sarah Krueger founded Lanue in Duluth and released a self-titled debut album in 2021. Krueger has a knack for straightforward and earnest songwriting while maintaining a vocal delivery that sits like honey over layers of warm synths, guitars, and percussion. Ranging from confessional to nostalgic, each track is brightened by a lush lift while continuing to rest inside the framework of the folk tradition.
Krueger relocated to her hometown of Eau Claire, Wisconsin, and continues to push the Lanue sound forward.

Saltydog is a funk jam Improvisational exploration that takes the audience & band on a journey through their playfully crafted folk driven tunes inspired by the likes of everyone from The Talking Heads, The Band, those classic country and jam band staples along with everyone in between.
The band spawned on the banks of Duluth’s ice covered stones by brothers Jacob and Owen Mahon. This midwestern psychedelic cowboy review features Calvin (Calzone) Lund, Lefty Johnson, Gavin St. Clair, and Sam Deters.
The group released its third album “Runnin’ Again” earlier this year.
**************************
Tapers notes: The last time I saw Lanue was 4 years ago, so I was looking forward to this show quite a bit. She sang a few new songs, which were about or for her husband who had passed away suddenly a little over 2 years ago. You could hear a pin drop during those songs, and she received a standing ovation at the end of the show. It almost felt as though the crowd was saying "we're with you", you could really see the impact it had on Sarah. The Saltydog set was definitely one of the more unique ones I've seen them play, some new songs, some songs I've never heard them play before, and a conga line led by Jacob at the end that went out the front of the building and came back in on the other side. Overall, it was a really great night, and one that reminds you why live music is so important.
