Over a century ago, the Westre Clan claimed a little spot on Frog Creek Road. The Clay County, South Dakota crossroads, where the remains of Westreville now lie, stand as a symbol for what we will always sing about: family, love, God and faith. It’s about the people who have gone before, people from small towns and farms, people like our parents and grandparents. We try to hold on to the old ways, and those people, as much as possible. We can never go back, but we can sing about it. What started as one song in church in 2001 has since turned into a whole collection of songs, gigs and towns too numerous to count. . . “That’s why we came.”

If you loved the music of O Brother Where Art Thou, then East of Westreville is for you!

It's an ever-changing mix of music and memories, reminiscent of the days when all that was needed for entertainment was a Philco radio and a comfy chair.

This talented group featuring Kaija Bonde (Always…Patsy Cline), Boyd Bristow (Acoustic Christmas), Brian Bonde (The Cardigans), with Al Slaathaug on string bass, intertwines good "old-timey" music with homespun humor, and an occasional special guest.

"Purveyors of American Roots Music"

It is Americana roots music: bluegrass, blues, folk, and country music--a country blues to bluegrass road trip… with a few stops along the way!
