Club Passim Brings
Free Summer Concerts Across Cambridge
Annual Series Set in Kendall Square, Harvard Square, and Danehy Park
(Cambridge, MA) Club Passim’s Summer Concert Series returns this season with free live music to three Cambridge neighborhoods including Kendall Square, Harvard Square, and Danehy Park near Fresh Pond. Running from June through August, each series showcases a lineup of talented local artists, offering the perfect way to enjoy summer afternoons and evenings in the city of Cambridge. More information and complete lineups can be found at passim.org.
“Curating Passim’s outdoor concert series is always a highlight of my summer. Watching the series return and grow each year post-covid has been such a thrill – this year, I’m excited to expand the Danehy Park series to include a few co-bill concerts highlighting Folk Collective members Nora Meier, Grace Givertz, Cliff Notez, and Photocomfort,” says Maddy Simpson, Passim’s Admin & Community Events Coordinator. “These will run alongside our more traditional one-act shows in the park, and it’s sure to be another wonderful season of picnic-ing and live music. In Kendall Square, I’ve booked a whole summer of great singer-songwriters, including returning talent such as Nemarca and Gabriella Simpkins, as well as new names like Cameron Peak and Will McGovern. The Urban Park Roof Garden is the perfect place to eat your lunch and enjoy some tunes!”
