Bob Merchant has been part of the Midwest music scene for over 4 decades! Beginning in 1964 with the Sha-Dels, Merchant has carried the torch for classic rock n’ roll! His unique voice and solid bass play have made him an iconic frontman. Admission will be $15 at the door. The cafe will be open for food and nonalcoholic drinks before the performance. Proceeds benefit the Siouxland Center for Active Generations.

On Saturday, August 16, 2025, at 7:00 pm, come to the Lewis and Clark Interpretive Center’s Spirit of Discovery Outdoor Stage for a free summer show. Be entertained by the Prairie Winds Jazz Ensemble as they perform a concert that will bring the Swing era to life.

This 17-piece group under the direction of Kevin Linder will play some patriotic medleys and swing tunes, a mix of big band classics from the 1930s, 40s and 50s. Musicians from across northwest Iowa, most within a 30-mile radius of Akron, perform in the band.

Admission is free. The audience will be positioned in a grassy area of Center’s campus, so they are encouraged to bring lawn chairs or blankets. In case of rain, the show will be moved inside to the auditorium.
