Summer is just around the corner, so that means it's not too soon to start thinking about Skyline Music! COA's popular summer concert series, which has become a family-friendly tradition for Riverwest and the whole East Side, kicks off this year on July 10 and continues every Tuesday evening through August 21. The shows -- as always -- are free and run from 5:30-8:30pm. Old favorites and new bands will grace Skyline's stage, starting with the wildly popular De La Buena to start the season.
