Like so many other Como volunteers, we both wish we could invite everyone we know behind-the-scenes at Como to see the tremendous care that goes into everything from keeping these magnificent lions and tigers healthy, to cultivating the gorgeous gardens around this campus. The more we’ve come to know about Como, the more committed we feel about keeping it free and fabulous long into the future. Tonight our wish comes true, as more than 500 guests—a new record for this summer gala—will have the rare opportunity to explore Como after hours and learn about what it takes to keep this turn-of-the century treasure growing strong. The amazing pace of progressive improvements our community has applauded—from the beautiful new Ordway Gardens wing, to both the award-winning Gorilla Forest and Polar Bear Odyssey exhibits– have only been possible because of private contributions from people like you. Your bids tonight for more than 300 silent auction items and gifts toward our fund-a-need donation make a difference at Como every day, providing chicken drummie treats for our large cats, free admission for nearly two million visitors, and family friendly conservation programs that reach more than half a million kids and adults every year.

Their spicy blend of Cajun, country, Celtic and Appalachian music is infectious.” - Ellen Stanley, Director of Publicity and Promotions - Red House Records “These guys take you on a wild, high-energy trip from Belfast, to Kentucky, to Louisiana, to Nova Scotia, to Kingston and back home again all in one set. My legs are tired just thinking about it.” - Mike Pengra, Producer, Minnesota Public Radio - 89.3FM The Current “I was lucky enough to do a session with the Sweet Colleens and I have to say that their music woke me up. It was like walking out of Fred’s Lounge in Mamou, a dark bar swelling with music and beer into the bright sunshine of a Saturday morning. That's what it’s like hearing these guys play Cajun music in Minneapolis.” - Michael Doucet - BeauSoleil “This five piece plays fiddle-drenched and acoustic-hopped jigs with spirit and smarts...” - Jim Walsh, St. Paul Pioneer Press “The Sweet Colleens are fluent in the blissfully forlorn folk-pop traditions that can wring both tears and nostalgic stories about your ex out of you.

    the sweet colleens fiddle-fueled accordion-infused celti-cajun folk pop biography The Sweet Colleens are David Bade, Dave Bille, Jeremy Greenhouse, Wolf Loescher and Pete Sandvik – accom- plished multi–instrumentalists who together fuse their diverse musical backgrounds into a high energy, infec- tious, and crowd–pleasing mix of “Celtic folk–rock and alt. country/Americana, with Cajun and Caribbean sea- sonings.” With infectious original songs, warm vocal harmonies, and fiery instrumental arrangements, The Sweet Colleens are winning a loyal local following and fans across the Midwest and beyond. Ex–pat Canadian songwriter and fiddler Jeremy Greenhouse and Minneapolis accordionist Pete Sandvik put together a band for a Y2K New Year’s show at Kieran’s Pub in Minneapolis. The Colleens went on to establish themselves as the Twin Cities’ favorite pub band and — since the release of the band’s debut CD Flop and its celebrated sophomore release half a mile from home — has expanded its audience through shows and festi- vals in the Midwest and even a 2–week jaunt to France. The Sweet Colleens CD half a mile from home showcases the band’s trademark musical dexterity with 16 tracks that draw on a remarkable range of roots music – feisty medleys of Irish and Canadian fiddle tunes, a raucous cover of The Pogues’ “Fall From Grace,” Cajun–tinged original songs featuring performances by Mi- chael Doucet of BeauSoleil, a folk–rock ballad about Jesse James, a tender waltz featuring the Trinidadian steel drum, and a dozen energetic and raw alt–country original songs about love, life, death and everything in be- tween – all pulled together into a seriously fun and uniquely Minnesotan sound.
