Makeshift Ego band members Kari and Shane combine their own unique musical styles to create an original and mysterious sound. They write subtle, yet thought-provoking lyrics and use uncommon chord combinations and rhythms that define their sound as a little dark with a quirky edge.

Minneapolis singer/songwriter Ben Connelly's new CD, Over You, is an indy-folk beauty about love and death, an umbrella, little lights in the night, and what's beyond the stars. Connelly is touring nationwide this fall and Minneapolis/St. Paul magazine says of the new release, "Ben Connelly's music is intimate in sound and universal in message...profound and humbling."
