FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Downtown Bellingham Partnership Announces Summer 2022 Events
Downtown Bellingham welcomes back crowds for signature events
Downtown Sounds, an outdoor music series 17-years strong, also returns for five consecutive Wednesday evenings beginning July 6. These free community concerts take place at the corner of Holly, Prospect, and Bay streets and offer family-friendly activities and dining as well as a beer garden for 21+ goers. The headliner bands from the local region and across the country are now announced:
July 6: Nite Wave
July 13: The Cumbieros
July 20: Outer Orbit
July 27: LowDown Brass Band
August 3: Miles Harris & The Deep Cuts
The series kicks off with Seattle’s Nite Wave, a band passionate about 80’s New Wave playing everything from Prince to Depeche Mode to Duran Duran and is a dance party not to be missed. Week two welcomes The Cumbieros, an 8-piece group that features a horn section while fusing diverse Cumbia styles from South America, creating high-energy sounds. The series heads into week three with Portland’s soul-funk collective, Outer Orbit featuring special guests. Hailing from Chicago, the talented, all horn band LowDown Brass Band takes the stage on week four featuring dancehall and street beat rhythm, with the energy of conscious hip hop, jazz, reggae, and soul. The series concludes with local standout Miles Harris & The Deep Cuts showcasing sounds ranging from Jimi Hendrix to John Mayer and all the funky dance party vibes in between.
Support for Wine Walk comes from Greenhouse, Downtown Bellingham’s premiere home furnishings and décor destination. Downtown Sounds is made possible by Premier Sponsor, WECU.
“As a community focused credit union, WECU is all about supporting our local community,” said Keith Mader, PR Manager for WECU. “Downtown Sounds not only builds community, but it also brings people downtown to support local businesses. For these reasons, we are proud to continue our sponsorship of Downtown Sounds.”
