You got your VO5 (8 p.m., July 27), you got your Steely Dane (noon, July 28); it must be AtwoodFest. The street fest (for a landmark, it’s by the Barrymore Theatre) always includes a cross-generational blend of Madison music and some intriguing visitors. Other sets to note: Louisville, Kentucky, singer-songwriter Dusty Bo mixes alt-rock, country and high-energy performances into a sound of his own; and Generation Jones will be joined by guests to create Generation Joey’s Song, raising awareness for the epilepsy-focused nonprofit (5:30 p.m., July 28). Note, previously announced Sia Tolno & Afro Dead will be unable to make the fest due to visa issues, but the sounds of the Grateful Dead will be ably provided by Jed & Company (1:45 p.m., July 28). To join a “convergence” parade to the fest, meet at 11 a.m. on July 27 at Circle Park, Goodman Community Center, Hawthorne Park or the Yahara River at Riverside/Winnebago. The fest is a collaboration of the Barrymore, Schenk-Atwood-Starkweather-Yahara Neighborhood Association and Sector67; find the schedule below and updates at atwoodfest.com.
media release: Saturday & Sunday, July 27-28.
Free street festival on Atwood Avenue! Please, leave your dogs at home!
