8:00 PM Show

Based out of Duluth, Minnesota, Death Valley Yacht Club is the creative collaboration of musicians Charlie Jacobs and Alex Oberton. The two-piece band’s signature sound features their intricate vocal harmonies sung over the interplay between their tightly-arranged acoustic guitars. MN Songbird described the band’s sound as “timeless”, saying they could imagine hearing the music “in the 90’s opening for someone like Elliott Smith.” Their original music takes inspiration from artists like The Beatles, Neil Young, The Avett Brothers, and Jesse Welles. DVYC’s music brings to mind the high and lonesome essence of bluegrass and modern folk music, having been compared to classic and beloved acts such as Simon and Garfunkel, The Milk Carton Kids, and Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young.

Emerging from the fog of Lake Superior, mud_puppies (often styled in lowercase) are a Duluth, Minnesota-based band carving out a unique niche they call "folk-grunge."
Founded by Jacob King Downs and Roland Struckman, the group blends the raw, distorted energy of 90s alternative rock with the storytelling soul of traditional folk. Their sound is heavily influenced by the duality of their inspirations—drawing as much from the gritty intensity of Nirvana and Jeff Buckley as from the poetic songwriting of Townes Van Zandt. Since their debut in the local scene, they have become staples of the Duluth Homegrown Music Festival. Their self-titled debut album, released in early 2026, showcases their signature "north shore" sound through tracks like "Lake Superior Blues" and "Teeth."
Whether performing as a stripped-back duo or a full electric outfit, mud_puppies capture the cold, beautiful, and often heavy atmosphere of Northern Minnesota.

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.
