Don Smith Quartet- The Don Smith Quartet will feature a variety
of different music genres from old country classics to jazz, blues,
swing and big band. They are a very talented and experienced group,
touring around the central Illinois area for over 28 years. However, this
will be their first performance in Nokomis. It promises to be a good
one!
Dan Rivero Trio- On August 3rd, the park
will be enlightened by the sounds of Jazz,
Blues and Big Band Standards by the boys of
Dan Rivero Trio. Dan Rivero and his trio have
been touring for many years all over the state
of Illinois and Missouri. They have done many
outdoor performances including last years
Summer Concert Series. Hopefully for them,
and everyone else this year, the weather won’t
be as hot as the music! (It was 109 degrees
the day of Dan Rivero’s performance last year.)
Farewell Drifters- As for the third concert date, back by popular
demand, from Nashville, TN, The Farewell Drifters! At the crossroads
of youthful storytelling and homespun bluegrass, The Farewell Drifters
have built a foundation for a promising musical future. After creating a
buzz in Nashville by performing at major venues including the Belcourt
Theatre, the Exit/IN, the Bluebird Café, and the Station Inn, they are
poised to engage audiences with their infectious melodies, sparkling
musicianship, and insightful poetry. They will fill the park with
irresistible energy that will be sure to capture the hearts and
imaginations of any who listen.
The Oohs- Finally, to close out this year’s
concert series on August 31st, we have The
Oohs. The Oohs will bring a powerful
performance for our close out show,
including a light show. They are a power pop
alternative quartet with densely arranged
vocal harmonies. With three albums out on
shelves and sold all around the world, as well
as doing many shows at the International Pop
Festival in Chicago, The Oohs are no
strangers to putting on amazing major shows.
This will be a performance to remember so be
sure to be in attendance!
