🎻 The Steel Wheels 🎻

We couldn't celebrate Red Wing without spotlighting our incredible festival hosts, The Steel Wheels!

After two decades on the road and nine studio albums, The Steel Wheels mark their 20th anniversary with a self-titled record that captures the band at a creative peak. Since their formation, the group—Trent Wagler (vocals, banjo, guitar), Eric Brubaker (fiddle), Jay Lapp (mandolin, guitar), Kevin Garcia (drums, percussion), and Jeremy Darrow (bass)—has grown from a harmony-driven acoustic ensemble into a dynamic folk rock band.

The Steel Wheels blend their roots in folk and bluegrass with a spirit of exploration, creating music that balances energy, humor, and heartfelt storytelling. PLUS: Keep an eye out tomorrow for their new album, 'Sing Me Like a Folk Song'

Don't miss your chance to catch them throughout the festival:
