Listening Party is a four-piece Midwestern Americana outfit by way of Wisconsin. Singing songs for both the happy and the sad; the romantic and the bitter. Buckle up for a real life, good timin’ listening party while “the band creates the kind of sparse campfire epiphanies that made The Lumineers so popular” (Piet Levy, Journal Sentinel).
"Their folk and Americana-steeped sound expertly and reverently takes the pulse and traditions of their genre while adding their own charm" - Glide Magazine
"A generous slice of Mid-Western Country Americana" - Americana UK
The Old Oaks Duo encompasses the chill-yet-funky acoustic music of singer-songwriter Franko Laufenberg. Their music ranges from 12-string renditions of classic tunes like Heart of Gold and What’s My Age Again to melodious acoustic indie originals. The songwriting floats between peaceful and gripping while carrying consistently emotive vibes. Frank's vocals and guitar interludes are complemented by the harmonious saxophone solos and alto flute riffs of Daniel Haschke. They can also be seen playing with Madison’s award-winning funk-fusion band Wurk.
