Caitlin Nicol-Thomas & Al Oikari of the Big Wu

Iowa native Caitlin Nicol-Thomas is a singer/songwriter, musician and actress based in Nashville, Tennessee since 2007. Besides being a long-time veteran of the Nashville honky-tonks, she has toured the country and the world supporting artists such as Miranda Lambert, Brad Paisley, Don Williams, Blake Shelton and others. She has performed with members of the Cash family for the Johnny Cash Heritage Festival, has been selected for several performances in Dolly Parton’s musical theater production “Smoky Mountain Christmas Carol,” and has released recordings as a solo artist (Troubled Times, 2008) and also with her band The Thread (House On Fire, 2020). This summer she celebrates the release of another recording of original songs, Derecho.

Al Oikari from The Big Wu is here, too. The story goes that the Big Wu, bound for rock stardom, sold their souls for a case of Old Style beer one thirsty night long ago. The legend and the band live on, still rocking their powerful, moving, and energizing original music for the fans. A jam band with a unique style and presence, the Wu combine strong, free flowing improv and vocal harmonies with finely crafted songs for all tastes. Oh, and their fans are famously friendly.

Americana balladeer John “Sonofmel” Adler plays songs from the world-weary road. That once meant wandering the globe to Adler, but in recent years, the road has become a busy northwest Wisconsin performance circuit. From the Fat Radish in Cornucopia to the Thirsty Pagan in Superior and the Out of the Woods Winery in Hayward, Adler brings his rustic, storied songs to destinations with names as colorful as the nice guy playing outlaw music inside.
