Concerts on the Pier is a quintessential Duluth summer experience. Local, Minnesota musicians play on the end of Glensheen’s 100-ft pier that juts out into Lake Superior. Concert goers pack the shoreline and arrive to watch the show via every watercraft vehicle imaginable.

 

Teague Alexy & The Common Thread
Award-winning Duluth-based musician, author and storyteller Teague Alexy is probably best known for his Americana songwriting in the national touring brothers duo Hobo Nephews of Uncle Frank. Or, maybe Teague is best known for his song “A Good Clean High (off a dirt cheap bottle of wine).” Teague’s guitar, harmonica and songwriting are clearly influenced by his home in Minnesota, his childhood in New Jersey, and his life as a travelling musical hobo that includes lengthy excursions through blues, reggae, Irish music, bluegrass, hip-hop, country and folk.
