Going To Bartalina: Songs & Stories of Commercial Sailing on the Great Lakes

Going To Bartalina: Songs & Stories of Commercial Sailing on the Great Lakes

Join us for this special performance from renowned folk singer-songwriter Charlie Maguire as he brings a program of songs and stories to mark important maritime anniversaries in 2025. This year marks the 50th Anniversary of the sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald and the 120th Anniversary of the Mataafa wreck off Duluth’s Canal Park on Lake Superior. Charlie Maguire is the only songwriter ever granted passage to write about two working vessels: Nordic Trader and William Clay Ford. Charlie Maguire also served as an embedded crew member on USCG Sundew. From these unprecedented opportunities Charlie Maguire turned experience into songs with insightful narratives behind each one in time for these important anniversaries.
