Musicians Corner Announces September Sundown Lineup

After canceling in-person events for all of 2020 (like every concert and festival series), and adapting to the pandemic by going virtual with a series of streaming performances, free, all ages, long-running musical showcase series Musicians Corner returned back in June with its first in-person event since 2019, hosting a three-day comeback celebration in the fest’s longtime home of Centennial Park. At the time, it was also revealed that this year’s September Sundown series, typically a companion to the larger spring season of weekend shows on normal years, would also resume in-person events, expanding from its usual Thursday night slot to also include Friday performers each week of September, and even a bonus Saturday of music on Sept. 25, to coincide with AmericanaFest.

While Covid concerns are growing once more, Musicians Corner’s outdoor setting makes it incredibly safe and easy to spread out, so it might be an easy (and free) way to ease back into live music if you’ve been avoiding large gatherings. Additionally, the festival will require masks for everyone, vaccinated or otherwise, and encourages social distancing. Clearly making an effort to make up for lost time, this is, by far, the most impressive September lineup we’ve seen from the fest so far, and with twice as many days as usual, there’s quite a bit of variety, reminiscent of prior springtime performance slates, boasting familiar favorites like Alanna Royale, Illiterate Light, Bantug, Lillie Mae, Sun Seeker, Lucie Silvas, Desert Noises, and many, many more.
