♫ Music in Ahrn City TONIGHT: David Berkeley

David Berkeley will be having his CD Release Show TONIGHT at Club Cafe at 7pm for his new album Some Kind of Cure.  This CD is based on his experiences living in a very small village in Corsica with his wife and young son.

Great Lake Swimmers at Schenley Plaza

With any luck these mid-afternoon showers will subside in time for the WYEP Final Friday Concert tonight at Schenley Plaza. The free concert begins at 7pm under the tent and features the Canadian band Great Lake Swimmers. The most notable aspect of this contemplative folk outfit is the haunting vocals of frontman Tony Dekker — watch his NPR Tiny Desk Concert from June to see what I mean. For more information about other similar music events, check out WYEP.org. Information about events in Schenley Plaza and Pittsburgh’s other major parks can be found at the Pittsburgh Parks Conservancy.… Read the rest
