For The Okee Dokee Brothers, life has been one big adventure. Friends since the age of three, Joe Mailander and Justin Lansing have teamed up for multiple albums, a Grammy Award, and countless energetic, engaging, family-friendly musical performances. The Okee Dokee Brothers will be performing at the Minnesota Discovery Center in Chisholm at 11am on Sunday, June 8th. More information can be found on The Okee Dokee Brothers' website.

Looking back on personal music history, Joe (guitarist for the Okee Dokee Brothers) sights a formative greatest hits compilation as his first album purchase. His first memorable live concert that he attended was a wild time on an auspicious date. And his guilty pleasure song... gets weird. "Me and my kid listen to that song all the time, it just brings a smile to my face."

Back Tracks receives support from Minnesota Power Employees Credit Union. You can hear Back Tracks every Friday at 8am on Northland Morning.
