A fundraising event benefitting Union Gospel Mission in Duluth, MN. On February 22nd, 5K participants will raise money for UGM and travel from Leif Erickson Park to Bent Paddle Brewery, showcasing the often difficult journey those experiencing homelessness must undertake in extreme weather conditions, to access basic necessities such as food, shelter, and healthcare. Set in the heart of Duluth’s coldest month, this unique event offers more than just a race. It’s an opportunity to walk in solidarity with those experiencing the harsh realities of homelessness during winter while making a meaningful impact in the local community.
Participants of all ages and abilities are invited to run or walk individually or as part of a team, raising critical funds that directly support Union Gospel Mission’s essential programs. Join UGM at Bent Paddle Brewing Co. for a post-5K celebration!
Founded in 2016 when the brother-sister duo Traxx and Rokkyn were still in elementary school, Born Too Late has quickly become a beloved fixture in the local music scene. Rooted in the sounds of '70s and '80s rock and country, their musical influences include icons like Guns N' Roses, Fleetwood Mac, Johnny Cash, and Dolly Parton. The band's name was inspired by the frequent comments they received early on, such as, “You guys are too young to know this music.”
Since their formation, Born Too Late has toured throughout the Midwest, performing in a diverse array of venues from nursing homes and coffee shops to nationally recognized music festivals. Regardless of the venue or audience size, they put their heart and soul into every performance, captivating audiences with modern twists on classic covers, on-the-spot requests, and their own original music.
In 2022, Born Too Late released their debut album, "Rebel Child." Their second album, "Terrible Twos," followed in October 2024, showcasing the band's growth in musicianship, vocals, and lyrics.
As they move into 2025, Traxx and Rokkyn remain focused on perfecting their original music and reaching a broader audience with relatable lyrics and a mature vibe. Despite Rokkyn still being a high school senior, the duo has come a long way from their early days of belting out Mötley Crüe covers to wide-eyed audiences. While they cherish those formative memories, they are excited to continue evolving and sharing their musical journey.
