Decorah Farmers Market, June 5, 2021

 Just a note here to document the fact that Contratopia played two hours of tunes this morning at the Decorah Farmers Market. This followed our earlier, surprise appearance on May 22. Both times were great fun and lots of market shoppers, and vendors, really seemed to enjoy hearing live music; almost as much as we enjoyed playing it. There's a real possibility that we might make a third appearance sometime later in the summer.

We also have a two hour set scheduled on the Friday afternoon of Decorah's annual Nordic Fest celebration. This will occur from 2:30-4:30 at Canopy 3 on Water Street. There's even the possibility of other events this summer in Decorah.

What we need now is an excuse to play music up in the Twin Cities area. Please contact Pat or Patrice if you have any ideas. Big money is not the object this summer, we just want to have fun playing together. House/yard concerts, garden parties; we are open to a variety of things. Safety, of course, is still paramount but we are all getting better at navigating that challenge.

Hope to see you soon ....
