A family-friendly community gathering to send the season off right.
Peat Boggs
Monday, June 8, 7-9 p.m.

Duluth's Peat Boggs bring their rich, unpredictable sound to Bent Paddle's outdoor Yard. The quartet weaves groove, jazz, twisted folk, doom and surf rock into something murky, lush and entirely their own.
Superior Porchfest Kickoff

Superior's beloved neighborhood music series is back for another summer of front porch performances across the city.

This free event is sure to be a great time!
