statement conserning fossil's last stand

  

 My name is Pete, and I am the manager of the Maddie Pearl band, it has come to my attention that a venue we have booked has been in the news for racial slurs towards people in our community. 

 I apologize that I did not make myself more aware of the severity of this situation.


 We at MPB do not condone this behavior and I am sorry that I did not do my research on Fossil's last stand before we agreed to play there. As the manager of this young band, I should have known of this situation and shoud not have agreed to play there. 


 Considering this information, we have cancelled our up-coming show on Saturday February 3 and our show on March 17th. I have contacted the owner of Fossil’s and let her know we would not feel comfortable being associated with her business and we do not agree with her actions.

In closing, I am very sorry to our fan base, our community and to the members of the band for my error in judgement…

Maddie Pearl the name:

Maddie Pearl the name:

Maddie Pearl the name:

 The name was created by founding members Pete and Colby Knappenberger, it is to honor our Aunt Pearl and Aunt Madelyn. The color Violet is to honor Pete's Grandmother Violet.

 

Roger Knappenberger is the reason for the band, he is the father of Pete and the grandfather of Colby. Pearl and Madelyn were his sisters. Violet was their mother, Pete's grandmother and Colby's great grandmother. 

 

Roger played in a Bluegrass/Country band in the 80's. Madlyn, Pearl and Violet never missed a gig and I am sure if they were still with us they wouldn't miss an MP gig either.

How did this happen:

Maddie Pearl the name:

How did this happen:

  In March of 2020 COVID-19 hit the country hard and people were quarantining, Pete was laid off from his job, Colby was off from school. 

 

Colby and Pete were bored, so Pete purchased a drum box online. Colby had been playing and learning songs all the while and Pete had a lot of catching up to do. 

 

Pete and Colby started jamming and just kept learning more and more songs as the month’s passed by. In about April/May Rian was added to our MP family.


Colby and his grandfather Roger had been jamming for years. Pete, Roger's son played bass and did sound for his dad's bluegrass band, Country Grass.

 

In June the band got together and played their first gig at Robin Hill Campground.

 

In November of 2020 Mark joined the band and is a great addition to the band.


In August of 2021 Dino joined the electric band as the Drummer.



 We are MPB!!
