Weekend Guide, July 13 to 15

Easton's most comprehensive guide to what's happening  over the weekend, in the city and beyond. Published every Friday!

Friday, July 13

Jackie Tice: "Concert in Blue": 8 p.m. Celebrated singer/songwriter, Jackie Tice, will feature new "blue" songs of the sky, the sea, and the heart, amidst her repertoire of award-winning songs. A musical palette weaving a little World, a little Folk, a little Jazz and a lotta Love! Guest musicians sit in. Light refreshments will be served. Suggested donation, $10; seniors and students, $5. 30 Belvidere St., Nazareth. For more information, call 610-905-0545 or email.
(Yes, we realize Nazareth isn't Easton. But they asked us nicely to add this to the Weekend Guide, so we obliged. And they're only a few miles down the road, not to mention, Nazareth is having this big event coming up, so there's a second reason it's worth visiting the neighbors.)
