June 8, Appleton, Wisconsin-based alt-rock band Cory Chisel & the Wandering Sons played New York’s Central Park. 11 days later, they played a slightly more intimate venue: the Pennington County Fairgrounds in Thief River Falls, Minnesota. Chisel was influenced by Bob Dylan, and also has family from Dylan territory — in Babbitt and Ely, Minnesota.

Cory Chisel and the Wondering Sons’ album, “Death Won’t Send a Letter,” came out in September 2009 on Black Seal/Sony BMG Music. The band has performed on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, and will appear at this year’s Newport Folk and Glastonbury Festivals.

Listen for Cory Chisel and the Wandering Sons, recorded in June 2010 at the Pennington County Fairgrounds in Thief River Falls, Minnesota, on Minnesota Arts on The Road, made possible by the Minnesota Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund.
