Andrew Bird Opens Celebrate Brooklyn

DSC07566For me, the official start of summer is always the opening concert at Celebrate Brooklyn, which is always free and always draws a multitude of happy concertgoers. Last night was no exception, as the multi-talented Andrew Bird opened the 32nd edition with a magical 2 hour show featuring his trademark mix of violins, guitars, whisting and singing. The venue – which holds 10,000 – reached capacity not long after 8, with thousands more camped out on the grass outside. The weather was perfect, too: a bit cool, without a hint of rain. Not a bad way to kick off the summer.

  1. Have ya’ll heard of the artist Pete RG?! If not you’re definitely missing out on a great folk/Americana singer! His music reminds me of a mix between Andrew Bird and David Gray. You can get a FREE download of his song “Rainy Girl” here http://peterg.viinyl.com/ Let me know what you think!
