2026 The Finestkind
with Joshua Eden and Kenya Hall
The Finestkind’s soulful sounds resonate out of Maine’s rocky coast, from gritty Low-Tide Funk to inspirational Evergreen Roots. Raised on Vinalhaven in a home full of artists, writers and musicians, Joshua Eden began his musical journey early as a toddler by climbing into a tuba. Now based in California, Joshua returned home to Maine to record his most recent album, Rust and Sand, to collaborate with his younger brother, Dan Boyden, drummer, producer and founder of Finestkind Music. The band is joined by Kenya Hall, whose musical artistry weaves together indomitable vocals with a fierce blend of soul and funk delivered with a rare energy that leaves every audience she sings to better for having been a part of it.
2025 Rock Creek Singers
Last year we were thrilled to welcome the 20-voice chamber ensemble of the Gay Men's Chorus of Washington D.C. known for dynamic a cappella performances of classical and pop choral pieces!


2024 Stolen Gin
Brooklyn-based band Stolen Gin gave an amazing concert in Community Park! "We’re known for our high-energy live act and avid improvisation - we never play songs the same way twice. Our goal is to make every gig feel like a party, and to keep people dancing."
2023 Red Hot Latin Love Toys
The weather was awful but the music was off the chain! Those who braved the rain and wind danced the night away.


2022 Sam Bigelow
In contrast, 2022's Sam Bigelow was a beautiful evening and record turnout. Community Park was covered with picnic blankets, where family and friends gathered for a joyous evening of music, dancing and dinner.
