As we mentioned before, the annual Friday night Concerts in the Park at Cesar Chavez Park are happening again this year. The free shows will run May 7th through August 13th, from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM. In other words, they start this Friday!!

This is an all-original-song, double-disc compilation and photography project called “Portraits: 32 Singers, 32 Songs”. Four Sacramento-area artists are featured on the compilation: Silver Darling, Garrett Pierce, MOUNTSHOUT, and not an Airplane. The CD release date is May 1, and you can find our more about the project here.
From their web site:
The concept for the music portion was to have the songs act as a stripped down snapshot of the songwriters. They were asked to keep their songs as minimal as possible when writing their tracks so their voice wouldn’t get lost in production.
We also applied this keep-it-simple outline for the photos, photographing only the songwriters in black and white without their full band. The goal of each photo was to focus on the songwriter and not be distracted by color, backgrounds or other information.
By combining both the music and the photos our hope was to connect a face with the music, creating a compilation that is deeper and more intimate than a simple audio adventure.
There will be a Sacramento show for the project on June 12 (Second Saturday) at The Urban Hive, 1931 H Street in Sacramento from 7-10 PM. It’s all-ages and it’s free.
