Share Your Photos From Hootie!
South Carolina’s Hootie & The Blowfish took a, we’ll call it a break, in 2008. They kicked off a reunion in 2019 and ever since, us fans have let them know that WE. LOVE. HOOTIE & THE BLOWFISH! Maine Savings Amphitheater and Waterfront Concerts were well aware of that and once again put on an epic show for us Mainers.

Maine Fans Showed Up Early to See Hootie Openers Edwin McCain and Collective Soul
Waterfront Concerts
Mainers of all ages took advantage of another amazing show put on by Waterfront Concerts and packed the Maine Savings Amphitheater for three perfect acts, and if you were raised on 90’s music, this show was especially nostalgic.
Maine Savings Amphitheater
The venue was packed early to enjoy the two openers Edwin McCain and Collective Soul. There truly isn’t a bad seat in Maine Savings Amphitheater. Each section offers a unique concert viewing perspective and the sound is top-notch which assists in creating summer memories that you will cherish forever. Such memories were born Friday night while hearing McCain sing his monster hit, “I’ll Be,” while Collective Soul had everyone dancing to “Shine.”

Hootie & The Blowfish Never Sounded Better Than on the Waterfront in Maine
Hootie & The Blowfish
Lots of work has been put into the Maine Savings Amphitheater and Hootie & The Blowfish took advantage. Maine Savings Amphitheater has been designed and perfected by Bangor-based Ervin Architecture and the minds at Waterfront Concerts. All attendees Friday night were spoiled hearing hits like “Hold My Hand,” “Time,” and “Let Her Cry” through the best sound any venue in the world can offer.

We Are the Watershed call for art
A collective of environmental, arts and Indigenous-led organizations is collaborating to produce We Are the Watershed, a two-day event aimed at reconnecting humans with nature and revitalizing the health of waterways, estuaries, and the bay in Peskotomuhkatikuk (traditional Passamaquoddy territory). Events, including theatrical performances, music, culinary experiences and an exhibition of submitted artwork, will be held on May 1 and 2 at Eastport Arts Center (EAC). A publication of written and visual works will also be released with proceeds to support conservation efforts and spreading awareness of their impacts.
Submissions sought:
Written and visual works are currently sought from artists and creatives on both sides of the border across Peskotomuhkatikuk for the publication, which will be sold by donation at the May event. Proceeds from the sale will be dedicated to related community-building efforts, public engagement, and continued restoration efforts. The deadline for digital submission for the publication is April 1.
Physical works can be dropped off at EAC Sunday, April 26 between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. to be a part of the exhibition, which will run May 1 through 15. Artists under 18 will receive 100% of the proceeds if they opt to put their pieces up for sale during the exhibit, which will run May 1 through May 15. Artists over 18 will receive 70% of the proceeds with the remainder going toward promoting awareness of and supporting conservation efforts for the Passamaquoddy Bay.
