Outdoor concerts are in full swing this summer in Central Oregon. Redmond’s 29th annual music series, Music on the Green, is back at Sam Johnson Park. Grab a blanket, bring a lawn chair and enjoy an evening of free live music in the heart of Central Oregon. Music on the Green begins on June 26 and continues through Sept. 4.

“I’m looking forward to being in our park for the summer. Sam Johnson Park is a beautiful setting for this concert series,” states Amanda Joe, event director for Visit Redmond and Music on the Green. “The City of Redmond Public Works Department does a fabulous job keeping high-quality facilities and services up for the streets and parks throughout the city.”

Attendees can expect a few returning bands and a few new ones. The series opens with Bend-based Beatles cover band Juju Eyeball on June 26 and ends with Redmond’s very own traditional Hawaiian Dancers Hokule’a Ohana on Sep. 4.

“Every year we bring back some of our local favorites and we add in a couple of new bands that are not from this area. Bringing some new sounds to Central Oregon,” explains Joe.
