Hometown Sounds

Tonight another summer music tradition kicks off at Carter Barron Amphitheatre with the Washington Post Going Out Gurus Weekend Concerts. The Jazz Night lineup features Jess Righthand Quintet, Jolley Brothers and headliner Akua Allrich. Akua is a seasoned DC jazz performer, incorporating neo-soul and R&B influences into her music. Tonight’s show is free and requires no tickets, and the weather couldn’t be nicer! Here’s the video for Hard to Get from Akua’s 2010 album A Peace of Mine.
