Music in the Vineyards, Just East of Erie

Saturday, July 7

Drifting through the rows of growing grapes, music can be heard every Saturday in July and August. Penn Shore Winery and Vineyards is hosting a summer concert series aptly named "Music in the Vineyards."

The concerts will take place each Saturday evening from 5 to 9. Both admission and parking are free for attendees. Music lovers of all ages are invited to bring a blanket or lawn chair to enjoy the show.

There will be food vendors on-site offering a wide variety of options — from waffles to tacos. The majority of these vendors will be local food trucks.

As far as beverages go, there is something for everyone. Non-alcoholic, local beers and wine (by the glass or bottle) are available for purchase at the venue.

The first evening will kick off with rock originals from East Ave. The band is made up of three Vaheys — singer Elly, guitarist Pat, and drummer Joe — bassist Doug Russell, and Royce Wilson on guitar and mandolin. The Cluck Truk will be on-site as well.

Following the East Ave. kickoff, the series's lineup features a variety of genres. Some of the many notable performers include Key West Express, who will be bringing beach music from the shores to the bluffs on July 28 and the Duke Sherman Blues Band, who will perform on Aug. 5. Rounding out the season, the Kevin Howard Quartet will be playing a jazz set.
