We’re playing the Kewanee Farmers Market on Wednesday, June 3 from 6–8 p.m. in downtown Kewanee, right at W 3rd St & N Tremont St.
This is part of their new evening market idea. For years it’s been a morning thing, and now they’re seeing what happens when you add food trucks, music, and people stopping by after work. It feels a bit like everybody’s experimenting together to see if downtown can stay busy into the evening again.
We like these kinds of nights because the crowd is usually mixed: people who came just to shop, folks who wander over with food in hand, and a few who pull up a chair and actually listen to whole songs. You get kids running around near the produce stands, someone carrying a bouquet, and somebody else trying to balance a plate from a food truck while clapping along.
Musically, we’ll lean a little more into familiar songs you can recognize from halfway across the street, plus a few quieter ones for when the sun starts dropping and people are hanging onto those last errands of the day. We’ll bring the piano, guitar, and a simple setup that lets us keep things pretty relaxed and responsive to whoever’s in front of us.

About Bell & Field
We’re a piano-and-guitar duo that tends to build sets on the fly: a mix of 70s–90s tunes, a few newer songs, and some of our own, adjusted to how noisy or quiet the market is. If kids are dancing, we lean upbeat; if folks are sitting and really listening, we stretch out a bit and let the slower songs breathe.
About the Venue
The Kewanee Farmers Market has been a longtime morning stop in Berrien Park, and this year they’re trying out Wednesday evenings with food trucks from 4–8 p.m. and live music from 6–8 p.m. It’s right in downtown Kewanee, with local growers, baked goods, flowers, crafts, and all the usual market tables — just shifted later in the day so people can swing by after work.
If you’re around Kewanee on that Wednesday night, come by, grab something from a stand or a truck, and let the music be part of your errands.
