Wilkes is perhaps best known as the founder of the Legendary Shack Shakers, a Southern Gothic rock and blues band formed in the mid-90s. Regarding the group’s “southern gothic” lyricism, Billboard Magazine said “[Wilkes writes] mind-blowing lyrics rife with Biblical references and ruminations of life, death, sin and redemption.” Legendary Shack Shakers have toured with the likes of Robert Plant and The Black Keys, among others. Their music has been featured in HBO’s True Blood, and in a long-running Geico commercial. Wilkes comes to Bozeman in support of his just-released solo outing, Fire Dream.

She’s been playing violin for over twenty years, develop- ing an improvisational style all her own. Lea has performed alongside many notable Minnesota musicians over the years, includ- ing Alan Sparhawk, Charlie Parr, and Billy McLaughlin. In addition to performing, Lea’s debut solo album, All the Roads that Lead Us Home, released in 2015. It pays homage to the traditional fiddle tunes and beloved standards she’s been playing for over a decade. Lea is currently working on her fourth studio album, with musical contribu- tions by Al Church, Dave Mehling, Martin Dosh, Andrew Foreman, and Alan Sparhawk. It’s set to be released sometime this year.
