North Shore residents look forward to the Radio Waves Music Festival all year. It looks like the weather is going to be great, so head down to the Grand Marais Recreation Area and enjoy the great line-up of local and regional performers, such as D’Merritt (left).
The 6th Annual Radio Waves Music Festival is sure to be a great time! It features a diverse line-up of North Shore musicians playing back to back over three days at Sweetheart’s Bluff in the Grand Marais Recreation Area, from Friday – Sunday, Sept. 6 – 8. It’s the perfect setting for sharing the weekend with friends and family, while enjoying a wide variety of music. There will be a dance floor, free children’s activities from noon – 4:00 p.m. both days, and on-site food vendors providing snacks, meals, kidfriendly options, and a special Sunday morning breakfast.
This year’s line-up reflects the incredible talent and diversity of North Shore musicians. “It was really important to us to be inclusive and to build a line-up that explores the talent of the area,” says WTIP’s Music Director Cathy Quinn. The line-up offers a variety of genres, from rock to folk, jazz, swing, and country. See the complete line-up below.
This year, the Radio Waves Music Festival is celebrating its sixth year. It takes place annually the weekend after Labor Day under a big tent in an outdoor venue, with on-site food, children’s activities, and on-site camping. Admission is only $5 per day or $10 for the weekend. For more information, check out WTIP’s website: www.wtip.org or call (218) 387-1070.
