The Live Music
Reggie Watts
Seeing is unbelieving. There is a reason Reggie has been celebrated as the most incredible performer of the moment from Conan O'Brien to Spin Magazine to the New York Times. If you haven't seen the improbable mix of comedy / vocal magic that is Reggie Watts, this is your moment. If you have seen him before, you know exactly why you need to come back. (8pm)
Small Black
Their sound is a mix of eclectic beauty, dance-pop and what they call CASIOBlaze. Small Black under a beautiful sky alongside pristine pools is the perfect sound for late summer. (7pm)
Lemonade
Quixotic and intoxicating, Lemonade is a liquid mix of rough edged Brooklyn rock and West Coast influenced psychedelic dance. It's bands like Lemonade that are defining a new genre of sound that hasn't yet been named. (6pm)
