The Rough & Tumble

On July 17, 2025 The Niobrara County Library is happy to present two bands, The Rough & Tumble and The Honey Badgers, for a lovely night of engaging, harmony driven, folk and Americana music. The show starts at 6PM. The Rough & Tumble are a folk/Americana duo, consisting of Mallory Graham & Scott Tyler. Forming in 2011, they spent 8 years full time in a 16ft camper with two big dogs, playing roughly 150 shows a year. At home at festivals, listening rooms, and house concerts across the country, their commanding stage presence, engaging performances and affecting songwriting have gained them a reputation as a band not to miss. In November 2024, The Rough & Tumble released Hymns For My Atheist Sister and Her Friends To Sing Along To, a collection of deeply personal, unifying and uplifting, humanist gospel songs. The Honey Badgers are a contemporary folk duo bringing their sincere Americana sound to stages across the country. The married duo is known for their intense, sparkling harmonies, their honest lyrics and melodies, and their undeniable chemistry on and off stage. Weaving their voices together with Michael’s driving guitar and Erin’s wistful violin, The Honey Badgers spin stories and songs about finding yourself, finding each other, and finding your way in the world. Their new album, The Earth Turns and So Do We, is currently charting on folk radio.
