Buffalo Galaxy

Deep Space, Light Speed, Bluegrass!

Buffalo Galaxy (Minneapolis, MN) is where heavy-hitting psychedelia meets old timin’ bluegrass. Their songwriting, patience, and personalities prove they go deep!

Banjo, Mandolin, Upright Bass, and Acoustic Guitar play off each other reaching both interstellar space and a universal familiarity. Their song catalog ranges from short and sweet Bill Monroe to here and now Lil Nas X, as well as catchy originals like "Time Machine" and long renditions of Grateful Dead classics.

Since 2019, Buffalo Galaxy has played over 300 shows around the US from Washington to North Carolina. In recent years, they revved up their tour schedule playing further and farther from their home base in Minneapolis.

Buffalo Galaxy has always consisted of:

  • Peter Whiteman - bass/vocals
  • Johnny Kovarik - guitar/vocals
  • Jake Rohde - mandolin/vocals
  • Zach Tauer - banjo/vocals
