The Mike and Mary Situation at The White Squirrel Bar (Saint Paul, MN)
On Wednesday May, 8th, 2024, the Mike and Mary Situation heads to The White Squirrel Bar in Saint Paul, MN for an intimate, relaxed evening of songs, stories, and good-natured onstage exchanges grown out of making music for years and years and miles and miles.

Put a Wisconsin farm boy and volunteer firefighter turned bestselling author and songwriter onstage beside an East Coast Yale grad who earned her chops in FedEx trucks and Texas honky-tonks and you’ve got the Mike and Mary Situation. As a duo, Perry and Cutrufello are as at ease with the audience as they are with each other. The songs hit directly and cleanly, the harmonies contrast like worn leather and rough-cut lumber, and the stage banter plays like a conversation between two longtime road-wise friends who’ve taken their lumps and their chances, whose trade is words and music but know what it is to work a loading dock or a pitchfork, and who figure if life ain’t played out exactly as you drew it up, you might as well laugh about it, sing about it, and get on with it.
Show: 6 – 8 PM
21 + up
No cover charge. Tips for the band are highly encouraged.
