Food Vendor: Waterford Lioness
Merchandise Assistance: Riverside Chiropractic
Once again, your response and enthusiasm demands the return of Jackie Brown and the Boys for their fifth year! There will be some instrument retooling to make up for the loss of Mikey, but they are determined to be better than ever! You can expect the familiar flute solos and of course, Jackie's amazing voice, but stay tuned for some changes and surprises up front... more on Jackie Brown
August 18
- Westside Andy / Mel Ford Band
Food Vendor: Bruno's Restaurant
Merchandise Assistance: Latitudes Travel
Because Andy and Mel's show was cut short by weather last year, we needed to bring them back for you to get the full effect. This national level act gets quite the props. Blues Brother Dan Aykroyd calls Andy Linderman "one of the most dynamic electric harmonica players of our generation." Jazz performer and producer Ben Sidran calls Mel Ford "one of the finest blues players in the Midwest, if not the country."
Andy has worked with the likes of James Cotton, Corky Siegel, Jim Schwall, Luther Allison, Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee, Charlie Musselwhite, The Doobie Brothers, Richie Havens, Muddy Waters, Ben E. King, Tab Benoit and The University of Wisconsin 250-piece band.
Mel began in opening acts for Albert Collins, Freddie King and Stevie Ray Vaughn. He played with Bo Diddley, Sunnyland Slim, Zora Young, Junior Pettis, Ben Sidran and Paul Black and the Flip Kings (with Andy). Mel also played the part of bandleader in Mel Ford and the Fairlanes... more on Westside Andy / Mel Ford
September 1
- New Dog Trick
Food Vendor: American Legion Post 20
Merchandise Assistance: Bon Voyage Cruise & Vacations
New Dog Trick is one of Southeastern Wisconsin's newest party-rock bands. Having performed at some of the area's biggest festivals, opening for bands such as Skid Row and Dokken, NDT has planted its paws firmly. Comprised of five seasoned musicians, including Geno, the former lead singer of the Toys, NDT's mission is to entertain the crowd! Their shows certainly reflect this. Come on out and help us finish this season off with a party... more on New Dog Trick
TNT Sound
- TNT Sound will provide the professional touch in Sound and Lights again this season. Due to the larger crowds, Tedd has expanded his system for us this year. Tedd has been working in live audio for 30 years and attended Full Sail recording school ummm... way back in the day. He prefers the challenge of mixing live rather than in the studio setting. Tedd has worked with a long list of professional artists, including Mitch Ryder, Spider John Koerner, Phil Keaggy, Larry Norman, Tracy Grammar, Bill Staines, Mike Stone (of Queensryche), Rare Earth, Valerie Smith & Liberty Pike, Allison Brown, Greg Brown and many more. Village Hall Park will never sound better... more on TNT Sound
Parking
- Ample street parking is available through out the immediate area. You may find yourself walking a couple of blocks, but it's worth it! There is also the municipal parking lot right next door to the fire / police building. It's right across the river from the park, just a short walk across the bridge.
Village Hall Park is very close to our neighbors. We very much want everyone to enjoy us being there, because it truly is the perfect place to be.
