Babylon ARTS will host an afternoon of free live music at Ely’s Jubilee Garden’s bandstand on Saturday August 25.
Bring a picnic and come along to listen to some local musicians perform in the sunshine from 2.30-4.30pm.
This year’s line up features Josh Aitken, Alfie & Chris Williams and Karen & Co.
All the acts are Ely-based and have made their mark on the local music scheme.
Last month singer-songwriter Josh Aitken was selected to perform at Ely Folk Festival as part of their youth folk challenge.
He has just released an EP titled ‘A Case OF Heart Break’ and has a reputation for delivering his own unique take on pop classics.
Chris Williams was frontman of Ely’s own Brit-pop heroes Beach Blanket Bingo.
