We're THRILLED to welcome for the first time AWFUL PURDIES to our Maquoketa stage.

A Folk-Americana collective of five multi-instrumental women who have been weaving stories, harmonies, and humor into the fabric of the Midwest music scene -- strengthening the fabric of Eastern Iowa. 

"As they celebrate their 20th anniversary in 2026, they’re releasing 20 singles — collectively forming their fifth studio album — a love letter to where they’ve been and an invitation to where they’re going next."
