About Trailer Trash
Trailer Trash got its start as a regular attraction at Lee’s Liquor Lounge, in downtown Minneapolis. With the popularity of retro-country music and swing dancing in the mid-'90s, the band found a following among new generations of music lovers. Trailer Trash is known for playing traditional country music, but they can swing, rock, and groove in a wide variety of styles from the American hit parade. Learn more about Trailer Trash here.
About Joyann Parker
With roots in the church and a solid foundation of musical education, Joyann Parker found her authentic voice later in life and created her own blend of roots music that combines soul, R&B, gospel, jazz, and traditional blues styles. Parker has been a steadily rising star on the Midwest music scene and now brings her full range of talent as an accomplished singer, pianist, guitarist, and songwriter to national and international stages.
