Lojo Live at Charlie’s Restaurant and Irish Pub
2026-12-12 19:00 - 23:00 UTC
Lojo Russo has been making music along the ‘Big Muddy’ for most of her life.
Self-taught on guitar and voice Russo cut her musical teeth in different bands in the Twin Cities (MN) playing guitar, bass and mandolin in all sots of folk, funk, jazz, jam, Irish and indie bands. The range of genres gave her a broader understanding of the music she played and a deeper understanding of the music she wanted to create. Those early years earned Russo a nomination for a “Mammy” (MN Music Award) for “Best Folk Artist” and the title of “Best Female Artist” from MN Women’s Press.
To look at her history it’s no wonder Russo likes to keep the music flowing along wherever it takes her. Russo’s musical style is as varied and unexpected as the river she calls home. One moment she’s laying down a furious rhythm on the guitar punctuated with a wailing vocal the next we’re floating along carried by intricate finger-picking, her voice as intense and haunting as her lyrics.
Russo has defined and refined her writing and music into her own free-spirited blend of rhythm & roots.
