oin us at Levitt at the Falls for a free outdoor concert featuring Pert Near Sandstone .
Pert Near has always made music their own way. For two decades this group of songwriters has created original music that beguiles their acoustic instrumentation. The band continually creates music that’s true to their Minnesota roots while still sonically experimenting in a way that pushes the boundaries of what “old time and bluegrass music” can be. Their ethos is more punk than folk, and pulls from their Midwestern origin.
Opening Act: MoonCats
Happy Hour: 6:00 p.m. JJ’s bar at the Levitt
Music Begins: 7:00 p.m.
Food Trucks: The Lunch Box Sufu, La Sabrosita, Double D BBQ, Street Sweets
