How to Say North, October 29 at 10 am

Two smiling men with glasses, one with his arm over the other's shoulder, standing outdoors with trees in the background.

The Sutter Brothers present a program that blends poems from Bart’s new book, Cotton Grass, with Ross’ versions of songs and tunes from the American, Celtic, and Scandinavian folk traditions. Best known for his singing, Ross also plays guitar, button accordion, dulcimer, and Irish drum. A three-time winner of the Minnesota Book Award, Bart has given hundreds of readings and had four plays produced. Come hear The Sutter Brothers offer praise for a farm wife famous for kindness and butchering chickens, ragtime lyrics for a river otter, an original hymn to Lake Superior, and much more about our region. This free program is 50 minutes long and is geared towards adults.

This program, sponsored by Arrowhead Library System, was funded in part or in whole with money from Minnesota's Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund (ACHF).
