A close-up of the band Arlen.

Arlen (from left): Soren Staff, Lee Henke and Kyle Shelstad.

Arlen is a relatively new Midwest roots supergroup combining Wisconsin’s own Soren Staff (of Eau Claire mainstays Them Coulee Boys) with three Minnesota players: Lee Henke of The Last Revel, Kyle Shelstad of Barbaro, and Nate LeBrun of Humbird and other bands. As all those bands keep busy, it’s remained rare to catch an Arlen concert, but they are playing a few shows ahead of the release of their debut album. This mix of writers/players should make for a memorable evening of music. With Simon Cropp.
