Live on the Lawn is a monthly event featuring local musicians in an intimate outdoor setting on the lawn at Garey House.

 

June's event features Deer Fellow, an Austin-based duo serving up cozy indie pop/folk with “comforting yet bold musicality.” Matt Salois (vocals, electric guitar, looping, percussion) and Alyssa Kelly (vocals, violin, keys) have built a cross-genre sound that “stirs hearts with each carefully crafted note.”

 

The band will play 7-9 p.m. Food trucks will open at 6 p.m. Beer and wine will be available for purchase.

 

Advanced tickets are required. Tickets are just $5/person for ages 10+ and free for children 9 and younger.

 

Thank you to our event sponsors, Fiber First and Renewal by Andersen!
