Evening Under the Oaks Fundraising Concert Series

Friday, June 26, 2009. 

Gates Open at 7:30pm, Music Starts at 8:00pm.  BYOB, Bring a Blanket/Chair.  $3.00 admission (all proceeds benefit the French Legation Museum)

 Relax and enjoy an evening of country-rock with Eric Hisaw under the stars. If all things musical seemingly grow on trees in Austin, serious songwriters of Hisaw’s caliber are not one of them.  Timely and timeless themes alike come to life in lyrics imbued with an ethereal optimism that surmounts the wayward despair of scenarios and characters.   http://www.erichisaw.com  http://www.myspace.com/erichisaw

This will be the final Evening Under the Oaks Concert for the spring season… check back for fall schedule! 

For future Evening event booking information, please contact Aimée Garten, Programs Coordinator.
