Arnolds Park, IA — August 10, 2025 — Ease into your Labor Day weekend with the return of Sounds Fishy to Mullets Okoboji. From 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM on Friday, August 29, the duo brings their relaxed, harmony-heavy sound to the lakefront stage for an early evening performance. Whether you’re meeting friends for dinner or soaking up the last light of summer, their acoustic-driven set is the perfect way to start the night.
About the Artist
Sounds Fishy is an acoustic duo known for easygoing covers and tight vocal harmony. Their sets pull from country, folk, rock, and pop, with arrangements tailored for a relaxed patio crowd. Listeners can expect a warm, familiar sound built on clear vocals, mellow guitar work, and a playlist that ranges from classics to contemporary favorites.
Based in northwest Iowa, the group has become a regular fixture across the Great Lakes region. Their approach is simple and intentional: music that fills the space without overwhelming it. It’s a vibe that pairs naturally with the rhythm of a summer evening and the easy charm of a night at Mullets.
Dinner, Drinks, and a Familiar Soundtrack
There’s something about the 5-to-9 set that makes it ideal for lingering conversations and patio meals. Sounds Fishy leans into that mood, something steady, unforced, and full of recognizable tunes. As the sun dips lower and the air cools slightly, you’ll find the evening settling into its own rhythm:
- Arrive for drinks and stay for dinner
- Let the music float through conversations without interrupting
- Snap a few sunset photos from your table
- Enjoy acoustic takes on everything from John Mayer to Fleetwood Mac
- Take a breath before the busier hours begin
It’s an atmosphere that feels spontaneous, even if you planned it in advance.
Favorites from the Mullets Kitchen
If you haven’t explored the Green Room Grubs menu, this is the perfect night to do it. Choose from wraps, salads, handhelds, and house baskets that strike the right balance between casual and satisfying:
- Strawberry Turkey Gouda Wrap – A summer favorite with just the right touch of sweet
- Burnt Ends Sandwich – Saucy, smoky, and a local classic
- Berry Salad – Fresh, vibrant, and topped with feta and walnuts
- Philly – Packed with grilled beef, peppers, onions, and melted Swiss
- Classic Mac & Cheese – Creamy, comforting, and topped with golden breadcrumbs
These dishes are easy to share, easy to enjoy, and perfect for pairing with live music.
