Sublime with Rome
Thursday, July 25
Sublime with Rome, the ska alternative rock group from California, was formed in 2010 by Rome Ramirez, Eric Wilson, and Bud Gaugh. With fan-favorite hits such as “Wrong Way”, “Santeria”, “Badfish”, “What I Got”, “Caress Me Down”, “40oz to Freedom” and many more, the band’s concerts are pure sing-along enjoyment from beginning to end.
Lil’ Kim
Thursday, Aug. 1
Lil’ Kin, notorious for her provocative image and explicit lyrics, rose to fame in the late 1990s. Discovered by Christopher Wallace, also known as the Notorious B.I.G., Lil’ Kim found success in the music industry, becoming one of only three female rappers with three platinum albums.
Wyclef Jean
Thursday, Aug. 8
The music that three time Grammy Award winning and Golden Globe and Emmy nominated Wyclef Jean has written, performed, and produced — both as a solo superstar and as founder and guiding member of the Fugees — has been a consistently powerful, pop cultural force for over two decades.
