Sounds Music Series, every second Friday from June through September! Now in its 7th season, Silverton Summer Sounds is a free open-air music series produced by Silverton Creative District and sponsored by the Town of Silverton. This family-friendly event features libations, food and free live music in Memorial Park. Concerts take place at 6 pm every 2nd Friday of the month from June through September with two high caliber musical acts at each show, including nationally touring artists and local opening acts. Our headliner in September is BARACUTANGA! Baracutanga is a seven-piece band, representing four different countries (Bolivia, Ecuador, Peru, USA), that blends South American ancestral traditions with a modern sensibility, whose exciting and distinct Latin flavor keeps crowds dancing and always wanting more. Baracutanga creates songs that cross linguistic and cultural barriers, building bridges between the south and the north, overcoming the barriers of discrimination and promoting intercultural experiences that empower Latinos and all people with a positive message of self-affirmation. The band promotes non-violence and their music as a vessel to increase and acknowledge cultural pluralism. Baracutanga‘s live shows are joyous, intense and explosive, propelled by the sounds of Andean flutes, charango, accordion, vibes, horns, guitar, bass, drums, vocal harmonies, and an array of percussion, often joined on stage, by Afro-Peruvian and Latin dancers. Baracutanga has received multiple regional awards and recognitions and have performed across the Southwest, Rocky Mountains, and California, with stops in Calgary, NOLA, Austin and México. Our opener in September is BROOKSIDE. Brookside is an Indie/Alternative band, and has been making music together since middle school. The band is now spread out, with members in Nashville, Washington D.C., and Silverton, but this has not stopped them from continuing to make new music. With more songs unreleased than released, the best is yet to come! Chow down with Silverton Sausage Company and Eat A Bite food truck, grab a glass of wine or cider or enjoy a tasty brew from our friends at Ska Brewing, and let's boogie! The show goes on RAIN OR SHINE so please come dressed for the weather. Feel free to bring camp chairs or picnic blankets to sit on. No outside alcohol or dogs are allowed. Please note that Memorial Park is a drug, smoke and vape free zone.
