Mascot Theory & Dead Horses at Mineral Point Opera House

Saturday March 28th at 7PM The Mascot Theory & Dead Horses will be performing at the Mineral Point Opera House. Dead Horses will perform at 8 followed by a set break then a set by Mascot Theory. Beer will be served at the concession stand for guests 21 and older.

With groups like Mumford & Sons, The Avett Brothers, and Ryan Adams setting the tone, the sub-genre of acoustic folk rock made its way to mainstream radio and captured an incredible and very loyal fan base. With the release of their Nashville-recorded album Hand Me Down Miracles, The Mascot Theory is set to be the next band in that category to make a major impact, as they have quickly moved up the popularity ranks of Madison's music scene with their infectious songwriting and live shows. They balance on an alternative folk influence and pull it together with a rootsy bluegrass blended Americana feel to give us something that fits alongside their counterparts, but also has enough freshness to it to give it a unique spin and create their own sound as well, with a sonic backbone of 4-part harmony swells.

Dead Horses is a young acoustic band with a cultivated folk sensibility well beyond their years. Hailing from a small Wisconsin town made world famous by a pair of overalls, the Oshkosh, WI based self-proclaimed folkgrass musicians craft narrative driven songs embellished with skilled picking and fiddling on their second album, Space and Time, set to release October 14, 2014.
