Missouri native salutes the music traditional to the Ozarks; where Old-Time Fiddle music received a quick flash fry of foot stompin’ Country Blues as it made its way across the Mississippi River. The songs are a collection of stories, often ancient in verse but timeless in meaning, and carried with reverence for this forgotten music bred to uplift from the tangle of struggles in a bygone era. The arrangements and delivery, however, represent a convergence of music roots separated at birth in Western Africa where the banjo was conceived. It’s widely known that traditional bluegrass music doesn’t allow drums. In this, aptly coined “Stompgrass” music, percussion is not only encouraged, but required… and the ease with which a banjo and a hypnotic tribal rhythm reunite waves a fist in the face of convention. So, too, does the execution; with vocals, a kick drum, foot tambourine, guitar, banjo, harmonica, and more all incredibly being performed at the same time by one person.

Benne also opened our stage for legendary singer-songwriter, Josh Morningstar! Order delivery, bring in carry out and join us for some Live and Local. Keepin’ it Live and supporting LOCAL! “For me, music started when I would ride in my dad’s truck with the radio stuck on classic rock. Growing up around it made me want to pick up a guitar and learn to play along. But it wasn’t until late in high school that I understood how much of a hold it had on me, even more so when there’s a girl involved. Artists like Eric Church and Kip Moore helped me make sense of a lot of things in my life and inspired me to want to do it for myself by writing my own songs. Music has always been there for me in any situation and I hope that I can share that with others.” – Clay Benne

Crooked Cane came into existence in the fall of 2016, when BURIED drummer Carlos Sanchez introduced two of his workplace colleagues from the Truman VA Hospital in Columbia, MO to each other with the intention to start up a blues-rock project. David Bach (guitar, vocals) and Mike Palmer (keyboards, vocals) began sharing their backgrounds as songwriters over decades with local and regional touring bands, and soon concluded that they wanted to showcase their original compositions in this new group. Dr. Sanchez returned to his own group, and the new project recruited bassist Mike Barnes, drummer Mark Wilson, and lead guitarist Andy Parker to round out the lineup. The band began rehearsing material, drawing from Bach and Palmer’s established catalogs.
Within a few weeks after the band began rehearsing, it faced its first serious hurdle. Mike Barnes suffered a debilitating stroke, which left him unable to use the left side of his body. Facing a long course of rehabilitation, Mike nevertheless persisted as a valued member of the band, remaining as a vocalist and arranger and lending his skills to the band’s studio recording. The band reached out to guitarist/bassist Dale Bassham to assume bass duties for the group. The six-piece group forged ahead with rehearsing, composing, and recording, and the group was prepared to release its first EP in early 2017. An impromptu Facebook poll led to the name Crooked Cane, and the band subsequently released its debut EP American Sampler. The band began rehearsals for live performance, and made its live debut at the 2017 MAHD Battle of the Bands.
2018 brought changes to the band’s lineup, as Bassham moved out of the area to pursue business opportunities. Wishing him all the best, the band elected to carry on as a five-piece; Mike Barnes returned to the role of bass player, performing bass parts with his able right hand on a keyboard. The band went on to perform three more live shows in 2018, and continued with more live shows and recording throughout 2019 and 2020.
Crooked Cane released its first full-length self-titled CD in April 2021, and began booking new shows to support the album’s release. Parker left the band shortly after, due to family and work obligations. The band has carried on with playing and recording new music since, with Dave’s son Joshua Bach filling in on lead guitar for the band’s live shows.

9 Tips to Rock Open Mic
Featured Article, How To Making Music
Any performer will tell you that you can practice for years in the comfort and privacy of your room, but it’s not until you take your act to a stage in front of live people that you’ll really hone your craft. If you’re not ready to book shows of your own, how can you get comfortable on a stage? Open mic events can solve the problem.

Open mic nights serve as incubators for beginning musicians, or for more practiced types, they are a great way to test new material before throwing it into a big show. For the totally fresh player, it can be a daunting experience. Here are 9 tips to rock open mic so you will be prepared to take the stage and get the most out of the experience.
9 Tips to Rock Open Mic
1. Know what kind of an open mic it is. Do a little research before you attend the event. Open mics are not universally the same. Some are all acoustic (no microphones or plugged-in instruments); some are coffeehouse-style where people sit in silence listening to players; some are jams where a backing band or equipment might be provided. Make a trip down to the open mic you’ve got in mind before you participate, or contact the host to get the details.
2. Everyone at an open mic knows it’s an open mic. People there are not expecting a Lady Gaga production to walk through the door. They’re expecting a musician (or possibly a small group) to share some material that might be polished, or it might be the first time performed on a stage. Don’t stress about what people will think. They understand the spirit of the event.
3. Feel totally comfortable with your material. You’ll probably only have a few songs (many open mics are set by a song or time limit, usually about three songs or 15 minutes @ The Mission), so make sure you’re putting your best foot forward. Just in case you get rattled on stage, make sure you know the tunes in and out.
4. Don’t stress about what to bring. Whoever is running the open mic will have equipment for you and they should be fully capable of setting you up with it. If you’ve never plugged in a guitar or sung into a microphone—don’t worry. They’ll make sure you do it right and that it sounds good. That’s part of the Open Mic experience at The Mission. We have a full back line: Guitars – acoustic/electric, electric & amp and bass & amp. Full drum kit & Yamaha keyboard. Mics, cables, stands. And our sound technician is here to help.
5. Don’t be afraid to ask. Open mic beginners may think they are completely at the host’s mercy. Truth is, we’re here to make you sound good! That said, if you can’t hear yourself, vocals are too loud, guitar is too quiet, whatever, by all means, tell them!
6. Don’t be afraid to trust. The host should understand their sound system very well, so trust that once you’re settled on stage they’re making it sound right out front. If you’re happy with what’s in your monitor sound, leave the rest to them. We know our system inside and out. It’s a small room and you have 15 minutes. Let us do our job and make the room sound perfect for your performance.
7. Support other players. If you don’t want to be judged, don’t judge other people. Open mics are a place to try material you might not get to try on other stages. Celebrate the people who come to share their art. Cannot emphasize this enough! This is the spirit of Open Mic Nights at The Mission. Enough said.
8. Network. Open mics are musician hangouts—take advantage! If you’re looking to start a band or find musicians to see elsewhere, there’s a good chance they’ll be hanging out at an open mic. We’re on Season 13 at The Mission full of Open Mic Stories of success.
9. Learn from the experience. Every time you walk away from an open mic, there is something to learn. How were you received? What feedback did people give you? Did you feel more comfortable? How did you compare with the other players? Honestly analyze the event to improve your performance next time. And take the compliments even if you know you made mistakes. You still entertained folks.
(10) And finally, HAVE FUN! Open mics are meant, most of all, to be fun. Musicians get to mingle, everyone gets to play, and even if you have the biggest flub of all time—it’s all in the spirit of open mic. To take the stage at all is to win. Enjoy it, learn from the experience, and have a good time! Join us for Open Mic Night, share some air and feel the Mission Magic!

Down Side Up was formed in 2006 by 5th graders: Ryan Mankin, Aaron Mankin, and Joe Lawler in order to blow Immaculate Conception’s student body’s mind at the 5th grade talent show. The show would go down infamously in history and Down Side Up’s journey would begin. Joe Lawler soon after parted ways, but will always remain a founding member. In order to prepare for the 7th grade talent show Ryan and Aaron would join forces with friends Jason Kremer (lead guitar) and Adam Buhr (bass). This team in fact did go on to nail their talent show performance and make several house party, birthday, and county fair appearances. Freshmen year of high school the band once again parted. Aaron Mankin and Ryan Mankin were soon introduced to Helias High School Senior, Hunter O’Donnell, bass player. The three of them and guitarist Jason Kremer once again prepared for yet another talent show but their audition was denied. Ryan Mankin, Aaron Mankin, and Hunter O’Donnell, the current lineup, began their long jouney of vengeance, delving deep into themselves and harnessing their Rock n’ Roll chakra. The trio began playing bars/music venues in 2013 at such establishments as the Mission in Jefferson City, MO and later the Bridge in Columbia, MO, now located in Jefferson City. Down Side Up released their first EP “Down Side Up”, recorded and produced by Pete Szkolka Music Productions, in March of 2015. The band has since released three singles: “Hollow Street”, “50 Reasons”, and “Jibberish”, recorded and produced by Jack Gue with Winksigh Recorders formerly known as Meth Lab Recording Studio. The boys of Down Side Up play their original music as well as classic rock and 90s covers all over Jefferson City and Columbia, Missouri, and are always working on new material which they hope to release in the future.

Born Zachary Dean Skinner on June 9, 1988 in McKinney, TX , he started writing his own music at age 17 drawing his influences mostly from the alternative, punk and indie/College Rock scene of the early ’90’s. After teaching himself guitar at age 15, his natural talent, and curiosity, led him to learn bass, blues harmonica, banjo, keys, and drums. “Kick Me!” his first serious band, formed at the age of 19. They recorded a demo, and from that, and countless free gigs, his fans formed a foundation. Zak recorded a solo album in December of 2013 at Walker Studios in Gordonville, Tx, which was a collection of old and new songs he had written over time, and produced by an old friend, Tommy Walker. Together, they have released the 3 song single “DEMO” with a full electric sound, in fall of 2015. Zak traveled between states from 2013 to 2015 for work with Renaissance festivals. He used the opportunity to travel, to play as often as he could, gathering a few friends in different places, before settling in Jefferson City, MO. Missouri projects include Love-Seats, Propaganja, Rusted Satellites, Persephone’s Whiskey Lullaby, All of Us Together, Collin County Steel & Wire.

Down Side Up was formed in 2006 by 5th graders: Ryan Mankin, Aaron Mankin, and Joe Lawler in order to blow Immaculate Conception’s student body’s mind at the 5th grade talent show. The show would go down infamously in history and Down Side Up’s journey would begin. Joe Lawler soon after parted ways, but will always remain a founding member. In order to prepare for the 7th grade talent show Ryan and Aaron would join forces with friends Jason Kremer (lead guitar) and Adam Buhr (bass). This team in fact did go on to nail their talent show performance and make several house party, birthday, and county fair appearances. Freshmen year of high school the band once again parted. Aaron Mankin and Ryan Mankin were soon introduced to Helias High School Senior, Hunter O’Donnell, bass player. The three of them and guitarist Jason Kremer once again prepared for yet another talent show but their audition was denied. Ryan Mankin, Aaron Mankin, and Hunter O’Donnell, the current lineup, began their long jouney of vengeance, delving deep into themselves and harnessing their Rock n’ Roll chakra. The trio began playing bars/music venues in 2013 at such establishments as the Mission in Jefferson City, MO and later the Bridge in Columbia, MO, now located in Jefferson City. Down Side Up released their first EP “Down Side Up”, recorded and produced by Pete Szkolka Music Productions, in March of 2015. The band has since released three singles: “Hollow Street”, “50 Reasons”, and “Jibberish”, recorded and produced by Jack Gue with Winksigh Recorders formerly known as Meth Lab Recording Studio. The boys of Down Side Up play their original music as well as classic rock and 90s covers all over Jefferson City and Columbia, Missouri, and are always working on new material which they hope to release in the future.

Tracy Blase was raised by parents who supported his passion for music. At the age of 13, you could find him performing in bars with local adult bands playing guitar, drums and singing. He paused his public performances after high school, but never put the guitar down. He was drawn back to the stage in 2012 and has since picked up the mandolin.
Tracy is influenced by a wide variety of musical genres: from punk to country and blues to alt-rock. He is currently a member of Rose Ridge with Jenny Babcock. The duo often shares the stage with Mid Mo’s plethora of fine pickers. Occasionally, you will find Tracy playing a solo gig. Those are pretty sweet. You should catch one.
