Catch Superior Seafood Boils out on the fest field every other Friday night for a Cajun boil from a small, family-run catering business owned by Joey, Amy, and our son Ryder. What started as Joey’s love for New Orleans turned into a mission: to bring the taste, fun, and spirit of an authentic Louisiana seafood boil up north.

Joey has always had a passion for throwing a good party and cooking up incredible seafood. Around here, he’s known as the “Ragin’ Northern Cajun” – part chef, part entertainer, and all heart. When you book us, you’re not just getting the best seafood this side of the Mississippi. You’re getting a true New Orleans–style experience: big flavors, big laughs, and memories that stick around long after the last crab leg is gone.

8:00 PM Show

Jodi Jones is a multi-instrumentalist folk artist, songwriter, and activist rooted in the working-class traditions of western Pennsylvania. Drawing on Appalachian balladry and the storytelling lineage of Woody Guthrie, her songs are spare, poetic portraits of post‑industrial life—river valleys, fractured towns, and the people who remain. A self‑taught musician, Jones performs on banjo, guitar, fiddle, and dulcimer; her debut record, Rust Belt Refugee (December 2022), was famously recorded in a home closet and channels old‑school mountain sounds into pointed contemporary social commentary.

Ross Thorn is a Duluth-based folk and country singer-songwriter whose music celebrates Midwestern life and working-class resilience. Ross has a way of speaking directly to the pain and heartaches we carry. His songs blend warmth, humor, and soul while exploring empathy, human character, and hope. With musical storytelling reminiscent of John Prine, his 2025 album Fitting In, much like his debut album Hugo, delivers witty, heartfelt songs that linger like a conversation with an old friend. Raised in northern Wisconsin, Ross regularly performs around the Twin Ports and collaborates with local artists, crafting memorable music that speaks truth to power and strengthens the Twin Ports’ vibrant artistic community.
