Three people stand with their arms around each other in front of a beige wall with The North written on it above their heads in blue lettering. The o in North is stylized to look like a compass.

This indie folk-pop trio from Pine City, Minnesota joined us in the studio on May 27, 2026, to perform some songs in anticipation of the release show for their first EP, Never Take Me Home, on May 30th. We talked with them about how band founders vocalist Michaela Engh and guitarist/vocalist Alexandria Gosen met and decided to start making music together, and how guitarist Steve Clemens became part of the project in early 2026. They also shared the heartwarming story of how they chose their name, and talked about what the music scene is like in Pine City and the surrounding area.
