Activities and events at the Somerville Community Growing Center on Vinal Ave and Summer Street are in full swing for the summer season, and Saturday, June 14 will bring live music for all ages from 7-9 p.m.

Somerville-based three piece band so+so will take the stage at 7, with their unique lo-fi, high-energy, lyrical pop sound. Following so+so will be local singer-songwriter Bill Trudell, featuring Captain Easy Chord. Trudell’s original power pop tunes have been described as “Hank Williams meets the Velvet Underground by way of the Beatles.”

According to Friends of the Community Growing Center member Candy Leonard, “The Growing Center is a little Eden in the middle of the most densely populated city in the northeast. We are hoping that events like this will make more people aware of this amazing space, and with that awareness will come more energy and community engagement.” Built by local residents and maintained by volunteers and the city of Somerville, the Center offers environmental education and cultural performances throughout the year.

The June 14th event is a fundraiser for the Growing Center, with a suggested donation of $5 and/or light, easy food to share. Raindate will be Sunday, June 15th from 2 – 4. A splendid time is guaranteed for all. For more information call Erin at 617-368-0861. thegrowingcenter.org.
