Loose Rooster

About Me

Originally known as Rooster, we have been a band since June of 2004. The Terminal Bar is our main venue, having played there a half a dozen times or more. We've also played the Uptown Bar, the Turf Club, the Viking Bar, Station 4, The Red Sea Bar, and a Summer Solstice Festival. All songs are originals brought down from the heights of Mt. Olympus in Northeast Minneapolis and handcrafted in a basement in East St. Paul. With one leg straddling each side of the Mighty Mississippi River, Loose Rooster is positioned to piss the finest in rock n roll music into any scummy dive in the Metro Area.
