2018 Music in the Orchard - Meredith McHenry, June 28th

Pedrozzi Foundation beneficiary of music in the orchard concert series

Mark your calendar for several fantastic evenings in June, July, August and September for the popular Music in the Orchard concert series in its sixth year at the Purple Orchid Wine Country Resort and Spa. Bring a blanket or lawn chair and relax under the olive trees of Livermore's finest resort at 4549 Cross Road to enjoy talented musicians while supporting local students.

The Pedrozzi Foundation is once again a beneficiary of the enjoyable outdoor concert series presented by the Purple Orchid, Nottingham Cellars, and Hop DeVine. The Foundation was established by Livermore businessman Mario Pedrozzi, so it is appropriate for local businesses to join together to support local students.

This year’s line-up includes:

June 28th, 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm, Meredith McHenry and her new band Nomad Hustle (a broad mix of blues, soul, rock, pop, jazz, country, disco, punk, jazz and funk)

July 19th, 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm, Crawdad Republic (a bluegrass quartet born and bred in the heart of the wine country)

August 30th, 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm, Smash City (hits from the 70s, 80s, 90s & today)

September 23rd, 2:00 pm - 6:00 pm, East Bay Mudd (a powerhouse tribute to classic soul and R&B)

Awarding winning wines by Nottingham Cellars, beer by Altamont Beer Works, and food by Hop DeVine will be available for purchase. No outside food or beverage allowed.

A portion of proceeds from ticket, beverage and food sales supports the work of the Pedrozzi Foundation, helping expand the Foundation’s impact. In addition to awarding scholarships to Livermore students, the Foundation works to help create a career and college bound culture among all Livermore students and families. The Foundation recently awarded $412,000 in scholarships to 114 local students. Learn more at Pedrozzi.org.

Tickets start at $15 in advance or $20 at the door (additional $5 for extended afternoon concert on Sept. 23rd). Purchase tickets online at PurpleOrchid.com. Advanced tickets also available at Nottingham Cellars, 2245 C So Vasco, Livermore.

ABOUT THE PEDROZZI SCHOLARSHIP FOUNDATION

The Pedrozzi Foundation provides college and vocational scholarships and resources to Livermore students. We believe that all students deserve the chance to pursue their educational and career goals and that the lack of finances or information should not be a barrier. Every day we create an impact by helping our students achieve their dreams. The Foundation was established by Mario Pedrozzi, a Livermore businessman, who left his estate as a gift to the community. Other community members are continuing Mr. Pedrozzi’s legacy by generously donating to this unique and high-impact community organization. Learn more at Pedrozzi.org.
