Riverfront Nights is in its final weeks, giving concert goers just four shows left to enjoy this season. Ross’s Landing will be the perfect spot to not only enjoy the cooler weather, but to dance the night away on Saturday, August 9.
Yacht Rock Schooner headlines this weekend’s show with the smooth sounds of the late ‘70s and early ‘80s. If you’re a fan of Hall & Oats, Steely Dan, Kenny Loggins, and Michael McDonald, this is a show you won’t want to miss!
Opening act Swayyvo is a Chattanooga-based hip-hop and R&B artist, as well as a saxophone and piano player. Tackling the expanding passages of modern rap music with an eye toward its jazz, neo soul and 90s hip-hop influences, Swayyvo has been breaking down the barriers between various genres for years and reinventing his sound and ear consistently.
“This is a free event we put on for our local community, and seeing the community come out and support us each weekend – it’s amazing,” said Mickey McCamish, executive director for Friends of the Festival. “It’s heartwarming to see friends and families choose to spend their Saturday night with us."
