The Eclectic, South Pasadena’s Music Festival and Art Walk, returns for it’s 10th year on Saturday, April 28, with Grammy nominated, multi-platinum selling Big Bad Voodoo Daddy headlining the event.
BBVD, the incomparable kings of swing, recently released their eleventh album, “Louie, Louie, Louie,” dedicated to jazz legends Louis Armstrong, Louis Jordan and Louis Prima. The event will begin at 3pm, with Big Bad Voodoo Daddy taking the stage at 8:30pm.
Other notable music acts will include retro-nouveau-rockabilly-jump-swing from Maureen and The Mercury 5; afrobeat vibes from Mexico68; flamenco, blues and Latin twang from Twanguero; the crowd pleasing sounds of Chicago from hometown favorite The South Pasadena Transit Authority; a lineup of Americana singer songwriters playing at the Fretted Frog Stage; jazz in two venues; an open-mic opportunity and lots and lots more music.
Art Walk
Other art events include art openings at SugarMynt and SPARC galleries, family art activities making collages and writing haikus and more. And visit Artisans’ Alley, a unique marketplace that features 26 artists and makers selling unique art and handmade goods.
This year’s Eclectic features a new, more walkable footprint – for the first time directly on Mission Street in South Pasadena. The stages and art events are all within easy walking distance of the South Pasadena Metro Station, a very convenient way to travel to the festival.
