Taking place over four Wednesday lunch hours, these concerts offer an opportunity to hear talented local musicians. Best of all, they’re free and open to everyone. Attendees are encouraged to bring their lunch to enjoy during the concert.

July 24: Clare Doyle

Clare Doyle emerged onto the Americana scene in 2023 with her debut singles, blending soulful country with rootsy rock and bold lyricism. Originally from Saint Paul, MN, she rediscovered her musical identity during the pandemic after returning home from New Orleans. Drawing on a decade of experiences, her songs range from clever to gritty, exploring themes of love, loss, and life’s messiness. Named one of First Avenue’s Best New Bands of 2023 and Music in Minnesota’s Emerging Artists of 2024, Clare has supported acts like The Cactus Blossoms and Them Coulee Boys. She champions jazz, preserving its spirit through collaborations, direction, and her unforgettable voice.
