Tonight is the first Munch and Music for the summer, down in Drake Park! Be down in the Park from 5:30 to 9:30 for free music featuring Winstrong:

WINSTRONG is blowing up on stage (and on the airwaves!) with his high-energy, conscious singjay style. Equally powerful on tracks as he is with a band, Winstrong fuses West Indian cultural roots with the dance hall sounds of today. The music also delivers an R&B feel with serious cross over potential. “Sounds of the Gun” (aka “Boom Boom Blah Blah”) is a runaway hit to all who’ve heard it. Winstrong’s been featured on compilations with some of the industries top names (including Capleton, Sizzla, Tony Rebel, Mikal Roze, Wu Tang Clan, and Snoop Dogg). His links spread from Surinam and Amsterdam – and he’s recently returned from recording in Hawaii. Winstrong’s own CD: “Eye of the Storm” (noted producer Ryan Daisley) is on the verge of receiving an international push to attract the global audience his music demands. Having toured with Don Carlos, Warrior King – and shared the stage with numerous others – Winstrong can support or headline with the best of them (in any genre).

For the “Munch” part of the evening there are a variety of food vendors to choose from—pizza, Mexican, sausages, dumplings, Japanese, desserts—and there’s a beer garden for beer and wine. And there’s a kids area too.

The food and drinks aren’t free, of course (nor is the kids area), but everything else is!

Munch and Music runs every Thursday from July 12 through August 16.
