You could now call them two peas in a pod, and they will be showing their stuff on Tuesday evenings throughout the rest of the year at The Bungalow Inn in Lakeland. Brianna Tagg and Kurt Jorgensen have joined to form The Jorgensen Tagg Band and duo. The two troubadours teamed up to record Brianna’s debut album, Wandering, with Kurt acting as producer and arranger for Brianna’s multi-instrumentalist talents, they say.
It did not take long for the pair to team up as songwriters and performers, too. The sound is powerful and undeniably fresh, as judged by its popularity, taking root in rock, blues, pop, and soul and a self-described “southern kissed” classic rock sound. The two are fast making an indelible mark on the local and national music scene.
Kurt, with his own band, has released eight albums to date and received the praise of fans and critics alike, as was shown for years with a large and loyal group of Hudson-area fans who followed him from venue to venue for performances, once even trekking to Iowa to partake in the experience. The Minnesota Music Awards has presented Kurt with singer, entertainer, songwriter, album and song of the year.
Brianna also has toured nationwide and has also performed multiple times at South by Southwest, impressing industry luminaries and fans, the duo say. Jorgensen Tagg performs as such a duo and also as a seven-piece band having many instrumental specialties.
After releasing their debut album “Love Wins,” Kurt and Brianna toured the West Coast, and that form of the band is working on writing and recording their second album.
You can catch the duo at The Bungalow on Nov. 29, and Dec. 13, 20 and 27.
Tagg. You’re it. She joins with award-winning Jorgensen to play The Bungalow on four more Tuesdays in 2016

A hodgepodge listing of everything that’s truly different but maybe baked porage follows, and we’re not talking about a connect-the-dots or puzzle-pieces contest or one on Trump’s foreign policy, haha, rather what I saw and what will be seen around town in recent times. Mostly, one of each. Think you have the world’s, or more likely local church’s, best grilled cheese sandwich, (coming from the land of, specifically, well curded and curdled milk and honey?)

- Give props to the several bands for climbing partway up deer-stand-style lofts, then taking to all but the lute. (We saw virtually every other style of smaller instrument at a Music in the Trees fundraiser for a nature preserve.) Yes, they dropped a couple of drumsticks to the forest floor, but perservered as a fan fave. Then a band from The Andes stole the show.
Music in the trees? It conjures up images of a poet wearing millenniums-ago robe and sandals while playing a lute and propped onto the fourth fork of a bigger-than-usual apple tree and doing a balancing act on his ass while he sings a soliloquy or a soffit. Maybe taking a bite in-between verses, to match what listeners chomped on if they hauled it in down long nature paths, making for dinner and a show with duos and trios, and one huge and elaborate band. Well didn’t quite get that lute-ist. Or a bassist so high on life and so-forth stoned...

Questions everywhere? These days, how do you dismiss an ad or a politician, or whoever or whatever pops up and occupies your computer screen, or mailbox, electronic or otherwise? And did that answer in the form of a package or letter or even air waves — coming from a pol or a pool? — ever actually arrive, like all those ads and flyers? Maybe it never will? And surely not written with a quill. As one friend just reminded me, it all starts with one problem leading into another set of problems. Or, like a volcano boiling and brewing and...
- The hearsay vote will be read by some as pure heresy, as Hermening spies the ‘country club crowd’ for how he can putt to quasi-greatness and quash Trump. Then in today’s election there’s a pro-life, run-of-the-mill muckadymuck, a Hong pro-education predictable, and a sharper than the average sheep Shannon (yes it’s a he.) THat’s what flyers tell us about the Day’s Of Our Lives. Today.
Hey today they threw it all back to you, as it is election day, and with it the last Badger gasp — if least if they’re our candidates — (is that the throaty noise they make?), with a soar-throated, campaign-trail rasp made by an audio-version plethora of last-minute flyers that fill our boxes with hopes to grasp, so we can check their boxes when we go to the polls and pick a (partial) winner to move on to full November midterms. Less then the Trump-triumphed manhandling our mailboxes got however, in the last election of this type. Those worn, creaking...
