Goatroper and friends at Driftwood Char Bar

Goatroper is led by Abbey Janii & Mike Lee, who are both songwriters from South Dakota living in Minneapolis. Over the last few years, Abbey was fronting the rock band Julie Fur, while Mike was bouncing around playing his weirdo folk songs for anyone who would listen. After releasing their solo efforts “Prairie Roads” & “Pick Me Up Café,” they began work on a new project playing each other’s tunes. Behind them are an incredible cadre of musicians, bringing you twangy, folksy rock’n’roll outta the heartland.
