Submitted. On Saturday July 13 from 4-8 PM, the Envision Concert in the Park Series is proud to present a double concert featuring Even Keel and Madflower at Mill Lake Park (Kariton Art Gallery Stage, 2387 Ware Street) in Abbotsford.
Even Keel – Since 2009, Even Keel have been rendering classics like “Summertime” and “Dock of the Bay” into modern forms while retaining their nostalgic charm. Turning current hits into original sounding crowd pleasers is a signature hallmark of Even Keel, the fresh, classic alternative to the mundane and ordinary.
Madflower – For over 10 years, Madflower has been spinning out their own eclectic mix of Indie rock and roll and covers. Deeply rooted in 60’s and 70’s rock and roll, the band weaves its own magical blend of folk blues and rock that will have you tapping your toes and dancing along.
“Envision Financial is pleased to be actively involved in supporting our local food bank through our partnership with the Abbotsford Arts Council and our new program, The Full Cupboard”, says Abbotsford Village branch manager, Lyle McLelland. “Come down to Mill Lake Park on July 13th with your non-perishable food or cash donation, and let’s reduce hunger in Abbotsford together.”
