Jeff Ray

Folk Forum presents Jeff Ray & the Stakes at the historic Oak Center General Store on Friday, April 17 at 7:30pm, bringing their “Delta‑meets‑Dead with a little Zen thrown in” sound to one of Minnesota’s most beloved listening rooms. Known for their fearless improvisation and deep‑rooted grooves, Jeff Ray & the Stakes turn resonator guitar, hand percussion, and raw musical chemistry into a living, breathing performance that feels both timeless and unexpected. With doors at 6:30pm and music from 7:30–9:30pm, guests can enjoy an intimate upstairs concert experience in this iconic rural venue (with a main‑floor audio feed available for those who prefer or require accessible seating). Tickets are $21.50 online or $24 at the door, and attendees are reminded to park only on the east side of County Road 82 for safety.
