This festival celebrates the music of the African Diaspora and honors the legacy of roots reggae. Join us for performances by reggae legends, Marcia Griffiths, Brigadier Jerry, Nadine Southerland, Onix Brown, Lady G, and Glen Washington; Caribbean foods, craft vendors, and a chance to vibe to great music.

Leonid & Friends: The Music of Chicago: Due to inclement weather the show has moved indoors to Lowell High School Auditorium
There will be no opening act, just two sets by Leonid & Friends
Doors open at 5pm
With multiple sold-out U.S. tours under its belt and hundreds of thousands of fans around the world, Leonid & Friends continues to astound its global audience with its uncanny ability to capture the spirit, musicality, and fire of American supergroup Chicago.
And what is even more stunning is that Leonid & Friends, comprised of 11 of the finest musicians in Russia, Ukraine, Moldova, and Belarus, haven’t seen Chicago perform live, yet replicates the band’s complex arrangements amazingly note for note.
“Chicago has never been in Russia, and none of us have attended their concerts” said Leonid Vorobyev, a multi-instrumentalist who is the band’s leader. “We have only recordings and videos to help us learn Chicago songs” Leonid’s goal was a studio project in dedication to Chicago under the motto “musicians for musicians”. Their first video went viral, but they really gained traction when Chicago itself published the video on its official website. They have since expanded their repertoire to include Earth Wind & Fire, Blood Sweat and Tears, Ides of March, Stevie Wonder, Steely Dan, Deep Purple, and new original material.
This incredible 11-piece band now has over 700,000 followers across social media, an astonishing 150 million+ video views, and over 200 successful US shows under their belt. The future is only looking up for Leonid and Friends.

“This album is a love album, but it’s not all happy. Love takes work—you have to stick it out through moments of difficulty to get to the beauty on the other side,” says Georgia-based singer-songwriter Phillip Phillips of his fourth album, “Drift Back”, out June 9th, 2023. “The title speaks to me taking a step back to figure things out, and then drifting back to my life and my fans.”
The 10-song album is Phillip’s first in five years, and his first full-length release since becoming a father. It’s a selfreflective record that boasts an assortment of emotive indie-rock, and ethereally anthemic mid-tempo tracks along with Phillip’s signature stirring ballads. Drift Back is produced by Phillip’s longtime producer, the Nashville-based Todd Clark, a trusted collaborator since Phillip’s debut.
