Fish Creek, Wis. (July 5, 2024) – Fishstock Concert Series has announced that the 2nd concert of its 2024 season will feature a July 7 performance by singer/songwriter Will Kruger. Kruger’s musical roots go back to the folk era and his influences are musicians like Peter, Paul & Mary, Simon & Garfunkel, Gordon Lighfoot, John Denver, and James Taylor. The July 7 event will feature a unique edition of Kruger’s much-beloved John Denver tribute concerts.
The 10-concert Fishstock Concert Series reliably includes a broad variety of well-known musicians in the folk, Americana, and alternative music genres, said concert promoter Steve Ellmann. “Will Kruger fits exactly into our musical wheelhouse,” said Ellmann. “His music is inspired by the same strains and influences that originally gave rise to Americana and popular folk music.”
Reserved seating tickets ($25) are available for advance purchase at Door County Tickets: doorcountytickets.com/organizations/fishstock-music-series. Both reserved and general admission tickets can be purchased on show nights (cash or check only) at the Fishstock ticket booth, which opens at 6:00 pm. General admission tickets are $20.
To attend a Fishstock concert, drive down County Hwy F east of Fish Creek and close to the intersection with Maple Grove Rd. you’ll notice a big white barn on the south side of the highway covered with colorful letters dubbing it “Fishstock.”
The 100-year-old Fishstock concert barn is one of Door County’s most unique performance locations. What began in 1985 as a venture in employee housing evolved into the site of Sunday night folk, Americana and alternative music concerts. The Series is a combination of some of the area’s best local musicians and bands with visiting favorites. There are once again ten energized Sunday evenings of great music this season.
Fishstock seats 200 in the ground-level indoor area and an additional 200 in the outside seating area. Both concert areas feature independent state-of-the-art lighting and sound systems, creating a personal and rustic setting for performers and audiences alike. A digital projection system with a 10 ft. screen relays the stage views to the outdoor seating. Prior to each show, acclaimed local guitarist George Sawyn will play in the outside seating area from 5:30–6:45 pm, and tailgating by patrons is encouraged.
