This Minneapolis-based band takes their name from the Minnesota State Fair’s large display of farm equipment. Their original style mixes Americana with Rock, Ska, Blues, Rockabilly, Irish and touches of irony. Machinery Hill features a variety of songwriters who delve into topics from building combines to the end of the world, all solidly delivered with an upbeat attitude and 3-part harmonies. If you look up “diverse” in the dictionary, it says “see Machinery Hill.”

Winner of 2 Minnesota Awards and featured in episode #226 of the Twin Cities Public TV series MN Original, the band has been active since 1985!

OK. Maybe not as active as 1985, but still remarkably spry!
