Music.
Still Reckless
7 - 9:30 p.m.
Still Reckless embraces a deep affection for the country music of the 1990s, pointing to the harmonies, instrumentals, and message of many ‘90s bands. They claim bands such as Little Texas, Restless Heart, and Blackhawk as major influences, though they’re also quick to point out the band features songs from the 2000s and even more recent.
Still Reckless was born out of a previous band with a pair of common members called Raised Reckless, a group of guys that wanted to spread the love of good ole ‘90s country music. Raised Reckless dissipated after about five years, with some of the members going in different directions. Musicians Tyler Crum and Drew Hamel decided to scale the band back a little and keep playing, creating Still Reckless.

Mojoe & Friends
7 - 9:30 p.m.
"Funky - Blue Americana" best describes MoJoe's musical style. The band plays the best of the blues and combines elements of R&B and funky Americana music. They consider Waupaca a favorite hometown. MoJoe's repertoire includes music of artists ranging from Ray Charles and James Brown to Santana and Bruno Mars. Joe Fittante is the featured vocalist, thus the name MoJoe. Tony Wagner, “TWags” is the groove oriented award winning percussionist. Kelvin Kasper the much in demand WI guitarist comps a wide variety of musical styles while Charlie Sauter, bassist extraordinaire lays down the funky sounds. Saxist, Bill Jordan is a very strong ensemble player who lays down a large, soulful sound.
… and friends! For this appearance, MoJoe will be joined by “friends” Mike Underwood on drum, “the hardest working drummer in WI”, along with trumpeter Kurt Shipe from Oshkosh.
