Our first concert is an evening outreach event at Allyne Park, corner of Gough & Green. We present this groundbreaking performance with one of San Francisco's premier singer-songwriters. Bring a sweater and join us under the stars as we celebrate our version of the Summer of Love 40th Anniversary.

About the Artist:
Kevin McCarthyis a Bay Area singer-songwriter. Kevin started his own record label in 2003 releasing his debut album, "Anchors Away." Critics immediately recognized this new talent, describing McCarthy as "unspoiled folk-rock music... in essence, it's remarkable."

Since then, Kevin has dedicated himself to getting the word out, covering thousands of miles from San Francisco to Rhode Island... and he's only just getting started. His most recent album, "Hiding in Plain Sight" is described as "rooted in soulful vocals and driving instrumental passages."

About NextArts:
NextArts produces concerts in public spaces throughout San Francisco. We are a social enterprise that provides special event production services as a means to raise funds to support our concert series. Recognizing the integral role of art and music in San Francisco's culture, NextArts produces our free outdoor concerts in diverse communities.

In 2005, we began asking attendees to bring (new) unused items, with tag still attached for collection and redistribution to worthy charities instead of gated admission. So far we have collected over 2,600 pairs of new socks and underwear and over 1,400 units of school supplies. All new, all with tags still attached.

In 2007 we move our annual concert series to its permanent home - Jerry Garcia Amphitheater. The Amphitheater is located in McLaren Park. Our 2007 concerts will occur on Saturday evenings, September through October, from 6-9:30PM.

We can think of no better venue for the next generation of San Francisco performers, and their performances. We hope you can join us.
