Afternoon Concert in the Park<\/em><\/h3>\n

Saturday, July 27
\n4:30-6:00 pm
\nGlen Providence Park Stage, State Street, Media
\nRain date: Sunday, July 28<\/em>
\n <\/p>\n

The Obsoleets<\/a> perform folk, blues, ballads and more with a wide variety of traditional acoustic instruments<\/strong> including tenor guitar, mandolin, ukulele, upright bass, banjo and accordion, and the intriguing Chinese erhu. From modern takes on arcane Americana to rootsy reworkings of contemporary songs, band members John Stovicek, Parris Bradley, Steven Patrick Smith, Bill Hayward, Alex Uskaraitis, Leon Barton, and Qin Qian add a distinctive touch to everything they do.<\/p>\n

Me 3<\/a> is inspired by tight harmonies, loose tea and well-strung guitars and ukuleles.<\/strong> They sing music spanning the 20th century, reviving old folk and jazz standards, retrofitting pop of the 60s through 90s and mining unsung gems of the past and present. From the Boswell Sisters to Beyonc\u00e9, Holly Hoffmann, Shannon Davidson, and Monica Moran mix three-part harmonies with a dash of swing.<\/p>\n

Bring a blanket or chair, and relax on the lawn by the historical concert stage<\/a> <\/strong>to enjoy the artistry of these two exciting groups! After the concert, head into Media for dinner and shopping, just 2 blocks away on State Street.<\/p>\n
