Back by popular demand, The Tavern Lounge presents acclaimed folk troubadour, Jack Klatt

The Tavern Lounge is pleased to present critically acclaimed singer/songwriter Jack Klatt on Saturday, June 29 from 8 to 11:30 p.m. This rare appearance by this popular musician is free and open to the public.

“Jack Klatt first performed at the Tavern Lounge back in February, the first stop on his solo tour from Minneapolis to New Orleans, in support of his latest album ‘Love Me Lonely,’” notes Jessica Paxton, KYMN DJ and host of “All-Wheel Drive. “Ever since then, people have been begging me to get him back down to Northfield; I’m so pleased that Jack had an opening in his very busy tour schedule to come down next weekend!”

In authentic troubadour tradition, Jack Klatt has traveled far and wide through the highways and bi-ways of America, Europe and Canada with his guitar always near by. Klatt has sang in countless barrooms, cafes, living rooms, theaters and street corners all over the world, entertaining folks with his boisterous finger-picking style and whiskey worn voice, continuing in the tradition of folks like Utah Phillips, Blind Willie MacTell and Towns Van Zandt.

In 2011, with his band "The Cat Swingers," Klatt released a critically acclaimed collaborative album with a number of veteran Minnesota legends including Spider John Koerner, Dakota Dave Hull, Cornbread Harris and Charlie Parr. "Mississippi Roll" has since garnered praise all the way from California to the UK and has been featured on the BBC’s Radio Norfolk, Minnesota Public Radio's "Heartland Radio" and 89.3 The Current (as well as locally on KYMN Radio's "All-Wheel Drive").

Klatt's latest solo record, "Love Me Lonely," has garnered praise across the country. More information and song samples at www.jackklatt.com.
