Browne's Addition Concert Series

07/10/2024

We are hoping the projected break in the heat holds so Villa Blues ‘n Jazz can share their great tunes. We have moved to the East side of the gazebo to take advantage of the shade while the sprinkler system is being installed. We will have some cold water available. So unless you hear differently we will be on schedule Thursday.

Music under the trees at Coeur d'Alene Park will be provided by Time Baby tonight.

See you next week with Soul Proprietor.

Thursday night’s (Aug.17) Browne’s Addition Summer Concert has been cancelled due to extreme heat. The warnings from the National Weather Service and the local health department helped the Mardi Gras Growlers and the members of the Browne’s Addition Neighborhood Council Executive Board make the decision to cancel Thursday’s performance.

“The band made the final, difficult decision to cancel the concert and we will make every effort to put them on next year’s playbill,” said Concert Coordinator Annie Matlow.

The health of the band and the audience members was the deciding factor. Because a potential reschedule date was too close to a Sept.10 benefit concert with The Rising, featuring KHQ’s Sean Owsley, the concert was not rescheduled.

08/11/2023

Great news! Free Whiskey has agreed to reschedule a concert on Aug 31. Fires forced the cancellation of the Aug 3 concert so we missed the Celtic rock sounds of Free Whiskey. We look forward to this additional concert.

08/10/2023

Stagecoach West has been entertaining folks throughout the Inland Northwest for 50 years and tomorrow night they will be rocking it in Coeur d’Alene Park. Fire and smoke kept us away last week but the weather report for tomorrow looks great. See you there!!

Due to the fire close by and the air quality, the Browne’s Addition Neighborhood Council has cancelled the concert tonight by Free Whiskey.

Please note - the start time for this Thursday's concert by Tango Volcano is 6 PM. It was earlier listed as 4 pm but that was a mistake that has been corrected. Please come to Coeur d'Alene Park at 6 pm Thursday, July 27 to hear a great performance by this amazing group.
