Party in the Park featuring the Waybacks and Kate Gaffney

Once a year, the Auburn Recreation District (ARD) and generous sponsors host
PARTY IN THE PARK.
A free event to the community.
Bands, great food, live entertainment and more.

The Waybacks music is about as easy explain as describing the Yosemite Valley to someone over the phone, you just can’t do it. Think Charlie Parker meets Woody Guthrie meets Jerry Garcia meets Jimmy Page, then while you are at it, throw in some Vassar Clements, David Grisman and just maybe you begin to get the idea.

For Kate Gaffney, music “is all about the songs and the players,” and her second full-length album, The Coachman (DIG Music), finds her blending soulful songwriting and resonant baritone with players she admires from both the Americana and jam-band scenes.

This venue does say you cannot bring your own alcohol, but it is available in their beer and wine garden, so I am not going to say you can bring wine in a plastic container. You can bring a picnic and low chair or blanket.
