We are gearing up for a busy summer of 2023...our 31st year of performing together! One new venue of note, every Friday (almost) we will be performing at Bent's Camp in our hometown of Land O' Lakes. Also, we are now part of a band...a collaboration with our friends from The Juke Dawgs...look for BELL BOTTOM BREWED out and about this summer. We have a couple of gigs booked, at the Pines in Mercer, the Pine Isle in Three Lakes, and Northwoodstock Music Festival at Bents Camp. If you love Bret & Frisk, you will surely love Bell Bottom Brewed!
As we continue into our thirty-first year of performing together, it is extremely heartwarming to have made so many special friends through our travels and performances. As we reflect over the years, we realize how special you all are and that is what keeps us going! A special thanks to all of you who have supported us over the years. We are very blessed to have such special people in our lives!
