Ross Thorn's poignant lyricism joins with a few good buddies to open for Bloodroots!
With a pastoral upbringing in northern Wisconsin, Ross Thorn’s music emanates as a warm and soulful hymn, waking up optimistically beside a snow-covered window. His sharply crafted and often humorous lyrics—distinctly reminiscent of great folk artists like John Prine—reveal internal struggles of empathy, questions of human character and virtue, and a search for hope, often finding solace in some unanticipated truth. Ross' second album "Fitting In", released in 2025, showcases fine-tuned songwriting through traditional and contemporary folk tunes that explore the humorous and somber sides of the human condition.
Bloodroots is a folk and americana trio based in Madison, WI. Marin Danz, Rianna Marie, and Eva Paddock bonded over a shared love of female songwriters and began playing and writing together in the fall of 2025. Bloodroots' namesake, a white petalled flower with red bleeding roots, felt parallel to their writing - pure, hard-edged, and threaded with nature's beauty. Bloodroots fresh take on a timeless sound is filled with sisterly harmonies and heirloom knowledge of shared stories
