Bands, Brews, & BBQ: Steve Solkela’s Overpopulated One-man Band

Steve Solkela is known for taking to the streets on his unicycle while warbling comically outlandish lyrics about northern Minnesota life and plugging away at his accordion.

Bands, Brews & BBQ is a Thursday-night live music series in Chisholm that includes free admission to the Minnesota Discovery Center — including the playground and play studio. The food court opens at 4:30 p.m.; music starts at 5:30.
