Culver City’s Boulevard Music Summer Festival—Big Wave + George Kahn Jazz & Blues Revue

Thursday, August 1, 2019 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Summer breezes… an intimate courtyard… free parking… and great music. Escape to Culver City for the 2019 Culver City’s Boulevard Music Summer Festival. Boulevard Music presents 6 free concerts on Thursday evenings at 7 pm from July 11 through August 15 in the palm-lined Dale Jones City Hall Courtyard of Culver City City Hall. Also become an entry level sponsor by purchasing one of the 100 premium reserved seats at $10 each per show available at Boulevard Music starting June 20. Tickets may be purchased at Boulevard Music in person or over the phone and are not available online as are the shows at Boulevard Music.

Tonight we feature The George Kahn Jazz & Blues Revue + Big Wave
Pianist George Kahn is one of the few guys around who makes jazz both swinging and musical enough for the cognicenti yet entertaining enough for their dates. He does it by bringing together some of the best locals around including a trio of vocalists, Gina Saputo, Crystal Starr and Courtney Lemmon who will perform a tribute to Aretha Franklin.
Big Wave is a seasoned 5 piece band bringing you all of your favorite Beach Boys, Jan & Dean, plus a special tribute to Dick Dale the King of Surf guitar.

Avoid the crowds and parking hassles of other areas on the Westside. Parking is free for one hour (2 hours with festival validation) in designated structures in downtown Culver City, and dozens of dining options are available within walking distance. Culver City’s downtown area is Southern California’s best-kept secret, featuring a wonderful mix of historic buildings, boutiques, theaters, galleries, and unique restaurants opening onto tree-lined streets.

The Dale Jones City Hall Courtyard is located at 9770 Culver Blvd. in Downtown Culver City (corner Culver Blvd. and Duquesne Ave.). The courtyard opens at 4:30 pm. No glass containers or alcoholic beverages may be brought into the courtyard. For more information, call Boulevard Music.
