Yesterday we hosted our 19th event this year at Musicians Corner in Centennial Park. It was a perfect fall day that featured seven great local artists who entertained our largest crowd ever with three hours of music.
Special thanks to our generous sponsors, fabulous vendors and dedicated volunteers who helped make our second season a huge success.
We will be back in the park on Saturday, May 5. In our off season we will be raising money, hosting fundraisers and creating ideas to make our next season the best yet.

10.29.11 - Thanks For Another Wonderful Afternoon
It was a beautiful fall day in Centennial Park. Several Razorbacks fans were there to celebrate their team's football victory over our hometown Commodores. It was also family day at Musicians Corner as our three main stage acts all featured three trios of siblings. Pearl Heart, High Valley and The Medders brought beautiful sibling harmonies to entertain the crowd. Ella Sinclair, Stephen Sebastian, Mackenzie Scott and special guests Carolina Story also delivered wonderful acoustic performances that made for a rootsy, country fall day of music. Nashville's Hometown Hero, Hannah Curlee, who lost over 100 pounds on The Biggest Loser also made an appearance and shared her inspirational story with all of us. Unfortunately, The Kicks had to cancel since their vocalist lost his voice. However, there as not shortage of great music to keep everyone happy.
Please join us Tuesday, November 1 for a Musicians Corner Benefit Show at The Bluebird Cafe and next Saturday for our special last show of the season.
Get details on both shows in our Calendar.
Thanks for supporting Musicians Corner!
10.23.11 - Great Day In The Park
What a great day we had at Musicians Corner last Saturday afternoon! The weather was perfect and the performances were outstanding.
Coal Train Railroad kicked things off with some fun children's songs. Micah Dalton gave a stripped down performance that highlighted his wonderful voice. Matt Giraud only needed a piano and his soulful vocals to deliver a fabulous performance. Heather Bond, Melissa Fuller and Felicia Barton also delivered great acoustic stage performances. Daniel Ellsworth and The Great Lakes rocked the stage to close out another great day in Centennial Park.
We only have two more events left so we hope to see you in the park during the next two weekends!
