Nothing is more fabulous than New England's outdoor music season! This summer, once again, the Medford Rec, Laura Brereton's Medford Music Studio and the Medford Farmer's Market are hosting a series of 4 nights of music at the Condon Band Shell, next to the Mystic River.
All shows are Thursdays at 6:30 and are free and appropriate for all ages. Bring a blanket or lawn chair, and enjoy great live music and some fun farmer's market fare! Put the dates on your summer calendar now!!
[Say Darling has been rescheduled for September 12, due to excessive heat and humidity and poor air quality.]
Thursday, July 18 | Baker Thomas Band
Self-described as "Louisiana-brass band meets a swing- thumping bassline with dueling guitars." The Baker Thomas Band developed out of a weekly residency at Cambridge's TOAD, where "the original line up was drums, bass, guitar, keyboard and trombone. From that humble 5 we've grown and now the band is rarely less than 9 or 10 artists with a full horn section and percussion section as well."

Thursday, August 1 | Debo Ray
Local, and classically trained, "Grammy-nominated and award-winning artist, Debo Ray is an immersive musical and visual experience. Possessing an incredible vocal range and versatility, she seamlessly brings out the soulful richness of R&B creating a unique and captivating pop sound. A charismatic performer and storyteller, she connects deeply with her audience, leaving them nourished with the depth of her artistic expression." Check out her work on Spotify.
Thursday, Aug 29 | Cheryl Arena Band
And, last but not least, we've got blues from another Boston-area local, Cheryl Arena, who "mesmerizes audiences with her sultry voice and powerhouse energy. She is a triple threat - a great songwriter, vocalist and blows harp like there’s no tomorrow..." “She may be from Boston, but her heart’s from Mississippi”- Johnny Rawls.
Thursday, September 12 | Say Darling
Back from last year, Say Darling will end our season with “...a brutal force of badass bluesy goodness intertwined with jazzy licks and a swing backing that will get you moving, shaking and shatter all your reservations about getting down…” - Red Line Roots. Until next year!!
