Local Artist:

Magnetic Poetry: In 1993 Dave Kapell, an aspiring Minneapolis songwriter, was cutting words and phrases out of magazines to inspire lyric ideas when he sneezed, sending his tiny inspirations in all directions. When he had the idea of sticking the paper slips to magnets, and those magnets to a cookie sheet, Magnetic Poetry was born. Since then, millions of Magnetic Poetry Kits have been sold around the world in dozens of different languages and themes... and Dave is still just trying to write a decent song!

Local Music:

The Okee Dokee Brothers - Take It Outside: The Okee Dokee Brothers have a mission to remind children (and adults) of their intrinsic ability to discover, imagine, and create through music.

As childhood best friends and band mates growing up in Denver, Colorado, Joe Mailander and Justin Lansing dreamed of being professional singer-songwriters. Then, one day (poof!) they were all grown up and playing their music on the scene. After years of touring the Midwest with their bluegrass band, Joe and Justin decided to keep their folk roots, but return to where it all began: childhood imagination. That’s when they moved to Minneapolis to start their “kindie” band called The Okee Dokee Brothers.

As an independently managed band, the young duo has gained a loyal grassroots following that is drawn to their witty lyrics, off-the-wall humor, strong musicianship, and unique folk style. By appealing to the musical needs of the entire family and recognizing that kids deserve quality music, The Okee Dokee Brothers are working full-time to regain the integrity of the children’s music genre.
