The 2012 Skinker DeBaliviere BBQ Concert Series has been a huge success for the neighborhood again this year!
On June 23rd Soulard Blues Band kicked off the concert series with the classic sounds of blues that made them St. Louis legends. At the National Night Out Concert on August 7th Funky Butt Brass Band brought the spirit of New Orleans to St. Louis with their booming brass beats. At both concerts hundreds of residents and visitors joined the fun to listen to the bands, dance, mingle with neighbors and friends, and enjoy great BBQ! Special thanks to the West End Arts Council and all the volunteers who have made these events a success. Don’t miss out on the last BBQ Concert of the year on September 15th – Farshid etNiko is a dynamic ensemble led by Farshid Soltansh ahi that blends Latin, Blues & Jazz with Middle Eastern instruments & influences. See you there after the Balloon Race!
