WEEKENDS, AUGUST 5-20, 2023
Returning to the Getty Center’s Central Garden this August is Garden Concerts for Kids, a free outdoor music series for kids and their families featuring some of the best children’s musical artists from across the nation. Guests are welcome to bring a picnic basket and blanket, though lawn chairs are not permitted.
Renee & Jeremy
August 5 & 6
Head to the Central Garden to hear hush indie-folk originals and covers that transform classic songs into quiet mantras with Renee & Jeremy. Solo artists in their own right, Renee Stahl and Jeremy Toback (also the original bassist of cult grunge band, Brad) combine to create a flavor of low harmony all their own.
Sonia De Los Santos
August 12 & 13
Singing in Spanish and English, Sonia De Los Santos exudes the joy she sings about with music inspired by various Latin American rhythms like son jarocho, cumbia and salsa, as well as folk traditions from the United States. Sonia’s messages of finding hope and connection in our global community inspire and excite children and grown-ups of all backgrounds.
Pierce Freelon
August 19 & 20
Blending hip-hop, electronic jazz and soul, Pierce Freelon’s dynamic sound is inspired by his journey as a millennial dad and crafted for today’s modern families. Hailing from Durham, North Carolina, Pierce is the founder of Galactic South, a boutique children’s media company, and the founder of Blackspace, an Afrofuturist digital maker-space for youth.
