Our popular summertime music series is back for season 29 with a celebration of America250, honoring the uniquely American musical invention of jazz.
Annie and the Caldwells plays powerful disco soul, blending high-flying vocals with fuzzy, psychedelic riffs whose real troubles and experiences—as an intergenerational family run by women—are at the center of their music. Through every note, The Campbell Brothers celebrate a tradition born in praise and carried by passion, bringing the joy of the church to audiences everywhere while bridging the sacred and the secular through their extraordinary mastery of the sacred steel tradition.
DJ set by Sonrisita.
