4onthefloor
Joining together in the name of fun & joy, the 4onthefloor bring their well-oiled, high-octane, rock’n’roll to the world with an immediacy rarely seen on stage in the 21st century. The furious delivery ebbs and flows with sing-a-long anthems and breakdowns, to soaring guitar solos and unbridled full-bore rock. Camaraderie is a common theme, and stompers are finding like-minded rock’n’rollers at every show.

Played in some amazing grade school, jr high school and high school bands and ensembles…seriously ground breaking in approach and chart selection including a big band version of “R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A” by John Mellancamp (formally known as John Cougar and John Cougar-Mellancamp).

ABOUT THE CAUSE
Ticket proceeds will be donated to The North Stands, a Sanneh foundation fund that supports individuals that work in the hospitality industry in Minnesota that have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
The North Stands movement was started by a group of people who have all been touched by the hospitality industry, and understand the art, hard work, and passion that people in this industry demonstrate for their community every day. This industry, and all of its workers, are a central part of what makes our Minnesota, Minnesota.
If you or someone you know is a hospitality worker who has been impacted by COVID-19, look for The North Stands on Facebook or Instagram, and we’ll be posting a simple page on how to apply for stipends directly from the Sanneh foundation.
