Eclectica takes the Bandshell stage. Not just another funk-world-rock-jazz-classical ensemble, Eclectica is a virtuoso groove event. This genre-defying band features bassist Kyle Whalum, son of jazz sax star Kirk Whalum, five-time Grammy winning drummer Roy "Futureman" Wooten (Bela Fleck and the Flecktones) and "the greatest living exponent of the electric violin" Tracy Silverman.
These free annual concerts are held from 7-9 p.m. on Friday evenings in July at the Volunteer Fireman's Memorial Bandshell in City Park, 1261 Hill Rd., Reading.
Concert-goers are encouraged to bring blankets and lawn chairs to City Park to experience great music in a natural setting. Food will be available for purchase from Mezcal’s Mexican Restaurant and Stephan’s Concessions. Listen to WEEU 830 AM Stereo each week for weather-related schedule changes. Alcohol and smoking are not permitted in City Park.
