Being the city that's forged some of the biggest names in music, Duluth is also home to Jumpsuit - a funk/jam outfit with a big side bowl of soul. On the rise, these funky folks are a culmination of individuals who have shared the stage with many of those names and more. Jumpsuit features Emanuel Eisele and Marshall Dillon on guitars, Calzone on bass, Ian Hopp on drums, Courtney Ellian on keys/backup vocals, and Erica “Ricky” Francois and Madi Phyle on lead vocals.

SOPHIE HIROKORiding a wave of generational change in the city’s music scene, Duluth’s Sophie Hiroko began writing songs as a teenager and found an audience last summer. In the fall, she recruited bassist Ned Netzel and drummer Tommy Kishida to help transform her songs into a fully formed sound that falls into the self-described genre of “tender bubblegrunge.” Kishida is leaving the band before Homegrown, but Leif Hinkel has stepped in to take over the drums. George Ellsworth was recently added on keys. Hiroko’s lyrics reflect the experience of “coming of age in Duluth as a queer woman, and coming from a multi-cultural family,” she said.

BORN TOO LATEBorn Too Late has been offering up musical nostalgia in the Twin Ports since 2016, when siblings Traxx and Rokkyn Nelson-Kavajecz first started gigging around town as 9- and 11-year-olds. Their style is 1970s and ’80s rock and country, and their love of this music is what led to the band name. While they started out doing covers, they have since branched out into writing original music in the same vein, with Traxx playing acoustic guitar and both Nelson-Kavajecz’s producing vocal harmonies. Their second album, Terrible Twos, was released in October.
