This summer’s lineup includes returning artists, local favorites and an award winning barbershop quartet.
Kicking off the summer events on Thursday, July 20 will be MapleStreet, a folk/bluegrass/rock fusion band from Slayton. MapleStreet started as a father-son duo and soon developed into something bigger with the addition of new members. MapleStreet will release their Let Them Eat Grass EP in July 2017.
On Thursday, July 27, sit back and enjoy the Roots of Oak Band, a newly renamed band featuring Gale Otto, Glenn Anderson and Reid Kimball who play classic folk/rock/bluegrass/country melodies. This band keeps it unique with a variety of instruments including guitars, banjos, harmonicas and dulcimers to keep your feet stomping throughout the evening.
Wrapping up the summer season on Thursday, August 3 will be Kordal Kombat, an award winning a capella barbershop quartet. This group has performed all over the North American continent and delivers a fun, high-energy performance that comes with a variety of great music and lots of laughs for all ages.
