The artists headlining the upcoming series will be Angie Stone, Goerge Duke, Martin Luther, Michael Morgan, Pete Escovedo, Stable Wilson, and this past Sunday was Oakland’s own, Goapele, alongside The Oakland East Bay Symphony. Unfortunately I was unable to attend but, photographer Fredrick Shavies (@fredshavies) of http://www.3680photography.com, did an outstanding job at capturing the essence of the artist and her band, time of day, and influence Oakland has on music culture.
