The 'Gales of November' concert series draws its name from the famous storm on Lake Superior that occurred on November 10, 1975, leading to the tragic sinking of the SS Edmund Fitzgerald. This annual concert, often held in early November, is a tribute to maritime culture and the rich story of the Great Lakes. Over the years, the concert has evolved from a simple local event into a beloved tradition, captivating audiences with its blend of musical storytelling and heartfelt tributes to sailors and maritime heritage. Artists participating in this concert typically delve into folk, rock, and blues, highlighting songs that resonate with the themes of the lakes, loss, and resilience. The first concert took place in the late 1980s and has since grown to feature a variety of musicians, each bringing their unique interpretations of maritime music. Various venues across the Great Lakes states have hosted the events, enhancing community connections and celebrating local talent. The concert has become not just a musical event, but also an opportunity for educational programming that sheds light on the history of the Great Lakes, the shipping industry, and the environmental issues facing the region.
