Excitement is high about Stamford’s second Porchfest, organized by the Roxbury Arts Group, to be held July 23 from 4 - 6 p.m. outdoors, along Main Street (state Route 23 in Stamford.
Last year’s event was such a success, with residents and businesses hosting local musicians on their front porches and stoops, with nearly twice the number of performers this year. Stamford will be filled with music from end to end along Main Street.
Porchfests have been hosted by communities all over North America since 2007. The event brings local musicians and neighbors together for a day of musical celebration and community. Porchfest is a great festival of town spirit and camaraderie, as friends, neighbors and strangers meet, greet and share local showcase performances. There are no tickets, no reserved seating – just folks strolling and congregating on lawns to hear great music. All of the “porch concerts” will be happening at the same time, from 4 - 6 p.m., offering a variety of live music.
The current lineup of performers and bands at the 2022 Stamford Porchfest includes: Acoustic Spin - Karen Anderson; Bill Farrish; Bobby Curious; Jacob Derwin; D’Raz’; Doug Decker; Grimestone; Mike Herman SoLo; David Kearney; Jim Kopp; Little Sparrow; Pocket Merchant; Ron and Albert Duo; Spiral Motion Sound – Pam West & Theodore Finkle; Those Darn Cats; 13 For Life, and Wyatt Ambrose.
