ELY — Keith Secola will take the stage 7 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 2, at Ely’s Historic State Theater.
Minnesota musician Secola is an icon and ambassador of Native music, organizers stated. Critics have dubbed him as the Native versions of both Neil Young and Bruce Springsteen.
“NDN Kars” (Indian cars), his most popular song, is considered the contemporary Native American anthem. It has been the No. 1 requested song on tribal radio since 1992, according to Secola’s biography.
In 2011, Secola joined the ranks of Jimmy Hendrix, Hank Williams, Crystal Gale and Richie Valens as an inductee into the Native Music Hall of Fame.
Tickets are $20 and may be purchased online.
