The bands have been booked for the 2011 Kirkland Summer Concert Series at Marina Park.

There will again be eight Tuesday morning concerts for children, and eight Thursday evening concerts for all ages. The concerts begin July 5 and run through Aug. 25.

This year’s performers were chosen from dozens of applicants. Children’s performers include favorites like Caspar Babypants, Recess Monkey and the Not-Its.

Evening concerts will kick off with Ruby Dee and the Snakehandlers, all the way from Austin, Texas, and the season finale will be roots reggae legend Clinton Fearon and his Boogie Brown Band. In between, you’ll get to hear blues, soul and all flavors of original rock and covers.
