Maine has a dark secret: it’s a powerhouse of music, a hidden oasis kept under wraps for 75 years. The truth is finally out. No corporate playlists—just authentic roots and Americana that smells like pine needles and saltwater. Maine-made tracks take center stage. From away? Only if it feels like home.
Haakon “Hawk” Kallweit: The heartbeat and truth-keeper. Spinning tracks from The Piners, digging into archives of musical friends, and sharing the real stories.
Evergreen the Green Genie: Our animated, magical guide bursting from the Maine pines! Keeping the "Evergreen" classics flowing.
We aren’t just playing the music; we are finding the people who write it. This is the lineage of the Maine Festival, brought home to the Lodge.
"Their voices still carry on the Maine wind."
A sacred memorial to friends, mentors, and local legends who’ve moved on to the great gig in the sky: Lenny Breau, Dick Curless, Nick Curran, Betty Cody & Hal Lone Pine—and all the barroom poets and trailblazers who left us too soon.
