Hello All,

Welcome to the Newsletter for January 2026, Happy New Year!  We're in the planning for lots of special events this year so keep reading the newsletter to keep up on what's going on from month to month.

Marv & Kaat have been playing regularly in Fairmont, MN for several years now and we've made many friends there and have developed quite a fanbase.  A huge part of making that happen was Bryan Unke and the Marina Lodge supporting our music by bringing us down to play that beautiful outdoor stage and also up in the Skybar.  We were very sad to hear that Bryan passed away on December 3rd, 2025.  He will be sorely missed.  Before he passed we planned a full weekend of music in Fairmont for this month and I know he was very excited to make it happen and attend the events.  So this is what's happening:  Friday January 23rd we will play the Sisseton Skybar from 6:00-10:00 pm.  Many thanks to the Unke family for carrying on Bryan's legacy and support of live music.  Saturday January 24 at 7:00 pm will be our first time to play the Red Rock Center for the Arts.  The show will focus on more Marv & Kaat original songs and some of our most requested covers. Thanks also to the staff at Red Rock for helping us make this happen.

Another first time show for me, I will accompany Kaatwalk for a show of Kaat's original music at the White Squirrel Bar in St. Paul Thursday January 29 at 9:00 pm.  Also on the bill are Nina Luna and Lady Bug.

I hope you had a very special holiday season and you're ready for a brand new year.  Maybe your New Years resolutions include taking in more live music!  The list below is everything that is planned so far for January.  Please check the website and click on the STAGE link for updates to the schedule.  Thanks so much for your interest in and support of the music.  Hope to see you soon at one of the shows!

Peace & Love,

MG.
