Princeton Concert Moved Indoors Due To Heat

PRINCETON, NJ — The Blue Curtain Concert in Princeton slated for Saturday is being moved indoors, due to this week's hot weather. It will now be held in the Princeton High School Performing Arts Center located at 16 Walnut Lane.

The concert, presented in co-operation with the Princeton Recreation Department, will feature Irish rockers The Prodigals and South American ensemble Rio Mira on Saturday, July 20 starting at 7 p.m.

The Prodigals combines original lyrics and melody with a passion for the tradition music of Ireland and a funky energy that is pure New York. The roots of the music are traditional Irish; the branches that shoot off delve into rock, worldbeat, jazz and punk.

Named for the river that separates Ecuador and Colombia, Río Mira brings together marimba masters Esteban Copete and Larry Preciado and Ecuadorian singer Karla Kanora, plus a talented group of Afro-Latin folkloric musicians from the cities of Cali, Colombia and Esmeraldas, Ecuador.
