Wailing Loons

Wailing Loons create Music for Good, driven by a mission of writing and performing music that reflects and transforms society. The Loons are now six strong, with Dan on guitar and vocals, Emilie on vocals, Casey Pavek on banjo and vocals, Nick Neylon on upright bass, Erin Manlove on viola, and Matthew Marshall on drums.

2016 was a huge year: in partnership with Eat for Equity and Oxfam America, the band returned to play #MusicForGood on the Solar Powered Stage for two nights of Bonnaroo. The Loons also headlined the Wild Springs Festival, immersed in community at MBOTMA Festival, and returned to raise money for local YMCA Camps at the 2nd Annual Prairie Burn Festival in Wisconsin. Wailing Loons released their debut mini-LP Fire in the Cold in April of 2016 after recording with Neil Weir at Old Blackberry Way.
