Event: The Lost Forty

We are excited to be sponsoring an evening of north woods music heralding back to the age of the lumberjack. The Lost Forty will be playing April 11 at the Myles Reif Performing Arts Center in Grand Rapids.

A native of the northern Minnesota town of Bemidji, Brian Miller teams up with Wisconsinite Randy Gosa as The Lost Forty. The Lost Forty revives and performs the Irish-influenced songs of men who roamed the Great Lakes region in the days when pine was king. Miller (Bua) and Gosa (Myserk) have toured the US with their Irish traditional music groups. Together they mix a passion for northwoods history and folklore with their love of arranging forgotten songs to bring to life this rich but under-explored music.
