Julieta Venegas is a renowned Mexican singer, instrumentalist and songwriter. The Washington Post describes Venegas as a different sort of artist. "While many of her songs will entice you to get up and dance, there is also an intimacy to her work that comes through even for those whose Spanish doesn’t go much beyond "hola."  Throughout the years, Venegas has received myriad nominations and recognitions, including winning several GRAMMY Awards and five Latin GRAMMY Awards.
Two time Latin GRAMMY Award winner Carla Morrison is a Mexican Alternative-Pop songstress with international recognition. Her angelically peaceful and lamenting voice brings listeners on an emotional rollercoaster with moments of both heartbreak and uplifting hope, which touch both their ears and their hearts. 
Named by TIME Magazine as an artist "poised for US stardom" Alex Anwandter brings together 80′s-influenced dance music and emotional songwriting, presented with an engaging live performance full of intimacy and showmanship. His solo debut Rebeldes features poignant lyrics that tug at heart-strings, while crisp percussion and upbeat basslines keep the body moving. 
This is a free SummerStage event. First come, first served.

Flamenco Vivo Carlota Santana II presents an exciting taste of flamenco music and dance to kick off our 30th Anniversary Season! Encompassing a range of palos (styles), from the light and carefree sevillanas, a Spanish folkdance with castanets, to the serious and elegant seguiriya, and finishing with the rumba, a form influenced by Caribbean rhythms, this diverse and colorful performance showcases flamenco’s rich culture. Join us for happy hour and a post-performance Conversation with Carlota to discuss flamenco, its origins and get a sneak peek of the Company’s 30th Anniversary activities."
