Happy Summer of 2026!
It’s summer again, and we’ve got a new system for sending out emails and posting show information online. You are receiving this email because at one point, you gave us your email address so we could send you updates on concerts we put on in our backyard. Now you can share these posts with friends so they can add themselves to the mailing list. Or you can send them this link to our new website: https://shadyoaks.live.
We have three concerts planned for this year with many familiar faces. We’ll also be fortunate enough to make some new friends. Here is the line up for this season:

Every summer, we open our backyard to the neighborhood - and anyone who loves good music. Evenings under the oaks, talented local artists, and all the lawn chairs you can bring.
Doors open 30 minutes before showtime. Music start times vary by concert - check each event for details.
Suggested donation: $20–30 per show
Every dollar goes directly to the musicians.
Thank you for supporting local music.
