From tonight’s Admiral Neighborhood Association meeting: Our area’s premiere summer outdoor-music series, Summer Concerts at Hiawatha, is a go for this year, its eighth year, and coordinator Katy Walum is ready to start hearing from musicians interested in applying to be on the six-show slate.
Here are the basics for the series, which is free to concertgoers, who bring their own seating/blankets/etc. to the east lawn at Hiawatha Community Center:
*Six Thursday nights, starting July 21st
*The 6:30 pm shows run about an hour and a half, with an opportunity for a 10-minute break
To apply, e-mail info@admiralneighborhood.org with information including:
*Band/performer name
*Description of your music
*Requested fee for 90-minute performance
*Web address where video of your music can be seen
*Staging or sound requirements
The series has generally featured musicians performing their own music. Here are our reports with the lineup announcements from the past four years – a wide range of genres:
Also, ANA’s Dave Weitzel is rounding up sponsors again this year. Use that same e-mail address if your business is interested in backing the series. (WSB has sponsored Summer Concerts at Hiawatha every year since the start in 2009, and we’ve already signed up again.)
