July is upon us and there are a ton of concerts to get to this summer. Stop by Bene’s Record Shop to hear some Free Jazz Stylings or get into Jalopy to hear some fine roots and blues music. The free shows continue at Prospect Park Bandshell as part of the Celebrate Brooklyn summer festival: Mick Jenkins and Leikeli47 will light up the stage on Friday July 5th, not to be missed. Enjoy the sunshine this summer and get out and enjoy some music! See ya on the dance floor – Jaimie Branch
