About:
Home Brewed is a fun filled, mixed generational group, playing Bluesy Rock and Roll and Rockabilly, mostly in support of non-profit organizations who are helping the less fortunate in society. They play a mix of tunes: from classics by the likes of Johnny Cash, Stray Cats, Keb Mo, LIttle Walter, and, Eric Clapton, to current bands such as Nathaniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats, Kaleo, and JJ Grey and Mofro as well as some original songs. They love all kinds of music, and have chosen to play this variety that respects the roots a of the blues while introducing their audiences to some new music to which they might not be familiar. Home Brewed uses their music to also give back for all of the blessings they have had in life.

On stage, the band brings a wall of sound that can either rock the house or bring things down and intimate. Their songs, albums and performances are a journey and you’ll want to come along for the ride.
With the release of their second album “Better Side of Life” in the summer of 2023, Brad and the Big Wave have taken their signature sound to new heights. Since thy began in 2017, the band has succeeded at creating a deeply expressive musical sound. Led by singer, musician and songwriter, Brad Pouleson, the band can simultaneously switch from an intricate, soul-searching song, to a soothing ballad, to music that rocks the house. Drawing upon the diverse talents of veteran bandmembers John Kramer on bass, Doug Langbehn on keyboards, Connor Wade on percussion, as well as the breakout new talent, vocalist Katelyn Halverson, Brad and the Big Wave continues to forge new ground.
