Who doesn't want to participate in a worldwide music festival, especially without having to travel to Coachella or Cairo? The international Fete de la Musique, also known as Make Music, will entertain people from Germany to Australia to Japan and beyond - including Lamorinda - on one very special day.
Lafayette will join 700 cities across 120 countries throwing citywide music celebrations with music and live band karaoke rocking the Lafayette Plaza from 6 to 8:30 p.m. on Tuesday, June 21.
Make Music is about celebrating music in all its forms, encouraging people to band together and play in free public concerts. For the first time ever, Lafayette is participating with popular band The Big Jangle and an open invitation for 18 lucky residents to embrace their inner karaoke rock star. Also, there will be singing, ukulele playing and crafts at Plaza Park.
A limited number of slots are available for lead singers and instrument accompaniments. Go to the Chamber of Commerce website for all the details. All Lafayette restaurants and businesses are encouraged to participate, and musicians and singers are currently being booked - call the Chamber at (925) 284-7404 or go to www.lafayettechamber.org. The event is co-sponsored by Lamorinda Music. -C. Tyson
