When Listening Party brings their trio performance to Little Switzerland, they offer a rich, cinematic take on the Americana genre. Often compared to The Lumineers and The Avett Brothers, this Milwaukee-based outfit has spent over a decade perfecting a sound that is both road-tested and deeply soulful.
The Sound
Listening Party describes their music as "Alternative Folk"—a blend of folk, rock, and bluegrass that prioritizes storytelling and infectious melody. While they frequently perform as a duo, their trio arrangement expands their sonic palette, adding textured layers and driving rhythms to their "foot-stomping" anthems and intimate ballads. Expect soaring vocal harmonies and a mix of instruments—likely including piano, harmonica, and mandolin—that fill the room with warmth.
