"Permutations of Red Pine"


September 2026



A Red Pine tree was planted at the corner of 212 Merry Street in the late 60s that evolved over the decades into a cooperative household. We are making it a place for comity and creativity; Clarity and the imagination; we change detritus of early 21st century late stage capitalism into art, shrine, paintings, music, sculptures, urban Permaculture and homesteading experiments. We appreciate the used, the worn out, ever crumbling and reassembling; as we all are all the time.

Mark Adkins is the main singer and songwriter for Madison Area Music Award winning band, subvocal. Think psychedelic-electro-tribal-folk..

Larry Ravenswood plays an acoustic guitar, but does not necessarily present his music in the "traditional acoustic sense". On his latest project "Million Miles from Zen" he combines acoustic guitar with various keyboard and beat sounds, and then mixing it all with lush melodies, vibrant vocals and songwriting. He has performed in many cities throughout the USA; venues including State Fairs,clubs,coffee houses and halls. Born in Chicago and currently living in Minneapolis, the indestructable music veteran has endeared many ups and downs, trends and non trends, but has always survived any or no fallout the music biz has or has not to offer.
