THE DUNSMORE JAZZ ROOM (Indoor) –

An intimate showroom with lake views, dedicated HVAC, and exceptional sightlines. Table seating for parties of 2 to 4, limited availability for parties of 6 (email boxoffice@croonersloungemn.com). Dinner and cocktail seating and service begins 1 hour before showtimes in Dunsmore.

VENUE DESCRIPTION

Named one of the world’s top venues by Downbeat Magazine, Crooners Supper Club presents dinner-show concerts in three distinct venues–the all-season tented Belvedere, the elegant, tiered showroom The MainStage, and the intimate Dunsmore Jazz Room. Musical styles range from jazz, R&B and soul, to roots, rock and country.

SEATING PROTOCOL

Cocktail and dinner seating begins one hour before showtimes in the Dunsmore. Crooners’ menu features our signature cocktails and desserts, and a selection of supper club classics, salads and sandwiches that are locally sourced, amply-portioned and prepared fresh daily. Adhering to our old-school Midwest supper club values, guests are never rushed.

OUR LISTENING POLICY

Crooners is a listening environment.  Because the quality of the shows is very high, and many in our audience are avid music lovers, we support both our guests and our artists by enforcing a “no talking during the show” policy.  Side conversations and singing along with the music (unless when prompted) are discouraged.

3rd Annual “Harvest at the Parkway”. A celebration of Neil Young’s Harvest and Harvest Moon albums presented by SimpleGifts featuring Billy McLaughlin.

On the night of this year’s Harvest Moon, beloved songs of Neil Young shimmer anew under the spell of siren-voices Carin Vagle, Karen Paurus and Amy Courts. Ladies singing Neil Young? Yes – and loving it! Celtic twist added by renowned wind-powered artist, Laura MacKenzie. Acoustic guitar by Billy McLaughlin with Dan Ristrom (bass), Patrick Nelson (drums), Billy O (percussion), LisaZ (piano) and Nathan Wilson (fiddle/mandolin)
