If you're looking for a melodious way to wrap up the summer, the final week of the St. Louis Park Summer Concert Series is tuning up to deliver some noteworthy outdoor entertainment.

According to an update from the City of St. Louis Park's Facebook page, weather-induced rescheduling has the SLP Community Band playing on Wednesday, Aug. 21, from 7 - 8:30 p.m. While hoping not to get rained out, their classical strands will fill the air at Veteran's Memorial Amphitheater. Handily located at 3700 Monterey Drive, the venue promises to be an idyllic spot for outdoor music enthusiasts.

Come Thursday, Aug. 22, from 7 - 8 p.m., get ready to hear the diverse local talent at Open Mic Night featuring Zoe Says Go. As part of the series, this event lays out a platform for aspiring musicians eager to showcase their tunes beneath the suburban sky. For concertgoers, it's a chance to possibly catch a glimpse of tomorrow's big names today.

And for those whose hearts beat in time to an acoustic guitar, the Dan Israel Folk Fest on Saturday, Aug. 24 from 7 - 8:30 p.m., will strum up some folk favorites. Known for his lyrical storytelling, Dan Israel's set is anticipated to be a comfortable blend of introspection and melody which has the local folk scene buzzing with excitement.

In what is a familiar refrain for outdoor events, the specter of inclement weather always looms. Should the skies decide to open up, the City has made provisions for just such an eventuality. Concertgoers are advised to call 952.924.2567 for the latest concert status updates. It's the perfect pitch for those planning to attend—checking ahead to ensure the show goes on. Let's all hope Mother Nature is a music fan and keeps the evenings clear. All performances are free, so bring a chair, grab some snacks, and enjoy the tunes as summer sings its swan song.
