Stories and Songs, a night of country music by Jesse Tyler Frewerd and Dan Lepien
JESSE TYLER FREWERD Jesse Tyler Frewerd is a U.S. Army Combat Veteran turned singer-songwriter, based in Menomonee Falls, WI. His musical journey took root after his deployment in Iraq in 2004, where music became more than a passion—it became a lifeline. In the face of adversity, songwriting offered Jesse a transformative outlet for healing, helping him process experiences that words alone could not express. Jesse’s music marries the raw energy of rock, with the genuine storytelling of country, crafting a sound that resonates deeply with audiences. His songs explore themes of resilience, perseverance, and hope, connecting listeners through shared emotions and authentic narratives.
Hailing from Sauk City, Wisconsin, Dan Lepien is spreading his brand of pure / traditional country music with unique, well-crafted songwriting and a road warrior’s work ethic. Dan’s distinctive gritty twang has drawn comparisons to country legends like George Strait, Alan Jackson, and Daryle Singletary. His unwavering approach in the genre has begun to gain him an especially loyal following among classic and traditional country fans looking for a new voice in the genre. Lepien’s debut full-length album “The Honky Tonk Traditional” will be released on May 16th, 2025 preceded by 5 digital singles. He currently has self-released 2 EP’s (‘The Man For You EP’ and ‘A Country Mile EP’), has had the privilege of sharing the stage with some of his heroes (Clint Black, John Anderson, Shenandoah), recorded in Nashville with A-team producers and players, and has played stages like HODAG, Country Fest in Cadott, Crystal Grand Theatre, WI State Fair, Summerfest, Watertown Riverfest, Porterfield Country Music Festival, and more.
