We are extremely excited to launch Refrain Magazine, your complete source for live music in the Northern Plains. First and foremost, we offer readers an extensive calender of live music events in the region.

Our annotated festival calendar will give you detailed information about festivals not only in ND, SD, and MN, but also MT, WY, IA, and WI. From time to time, we’ll even post news about other festivals across the nation that we think readers would like to know about.

Our live music calendar will naturally cover local venues and will include club dates in the area for bands that frequent regional festivals. This calendar will also post listings for artists the editor thinks readers might be interested in, even if those events are a longer drive away.

We also offer in-depth stories about local musical artists, bands that tour the region, festivals, CD reviews, and a venue spotlight. We’ll also try to post news about new releases, tours, and other info about your favorite bands. And, sometimes, we’ll even throw in some new musical talent that you might not have heard of.

If you know of an event we don’t have listed, please feel free to send us an email at calendar@refrainmagazine.com. If you have festival information or have another festival to add to our list, please email festivals@refrainmagazine.com.

Also, if you have suggestions about area artists or touring bands you think readers should know about, write the editor at editor@refrainmagazine.com.

So, come on in and sit a spell and get to know the bands and venues in the region just a little bit better.
