Downtown Summer Nights

They seem like the kind of guys who'd fit right in around here -- quick, broad smiles, strong handshakes and suntanned faces that would look at home behind the wheel of a John Deere in an open field. And the Olson boys -- Luke and Isaac of the Olson Brothers Band -- will likely feel at home this week when they come to town to play Yakima's Downtown Summer Nights...

Downtown Summer Nights has been fantastic this summer. We have had some awesome talent come through -- country, blues and rock.. I am a true rocker, but this Thursday is bringing all of it.

That was some enchanted evening. Ayron Jones and The Way, Daniel Kirkpatrick & The Bayonets, and Whitney Monge played some hot licks on a cool summer evening as Yakima turned out by the hundreds for another party at Downtown Summer Nights. ...

Kelly West and Todd & Andy will be Theresa Canham's b*tches tonight at Downtown Summer Nights. She is our VIP 'Rock God.' Swing by the VIP table and sign up for the other stuff we are giving away throughout the evening.

We are always in need of something fun to do in Yakima Valley. We have had some fun times this summer. Downtown Summer Nights has been amazing, especially the 'Van Eps' night with KATS-FM. Now 'Second Saturday' is in play. The Downtown Association is putting together 'Second Saturday' for all of us to have even more fun in Yakima Valley!

This week, Vaudeville Etiquette will headline the latest installment in the popular summer concert series.

Tommy Simmons, Rags and Ribbons, and headliner Ben Union take the stage Thursday night for the latest show in the Downtown Summer Nights (DSN) concert series.

One of the Great Pacific Northwest's favorite bands takes the stage tonight for the Independence Day weekend edition of the Downtown Summer Nights concert series.

Not only does the Downtown Summer Nights concert series offer great music, food, and fun, it also has some great activities for children.

Another 'Bucket List' item crossed off for yours truly last night. Iconic songwriter/musician Steve Earle and the Dukes came through Yakima on the "Low Highway" tour and played the Capitol Theatre.  I took my dad as a belated Father's Day present as he and I have come to know and love Mr. Earle's music dating back to around 1996.

Cody Beebe visited the Townsquare Media cluster of radio stations on Thursday to announce this year's musical entertainment roster for the 2nd annual Downtown Summer Nights concert series presented by the City of Yakima and Stewart Subaru.
