CARMICHAEL, CA (MPG) - Rejoicing in cooler weather, Saturday’s Carmichael Park concert audience hit a new record with more than 2000 fans in attendance.

Funk/rock big band Hipper Than Hip was the attraction.

The event kicked the music season back to high gear after triple-digit temperatures postponed a July 15 show and curbed concert attendance the following weekend.

Carmichael native Todd Morgan – with backing group the Emblems – headline this Saturday. Remaining 2023 acts are:

August 12: On Air (classic hits).

August 19: Latin Touch (Latin).

August 26: Dyana and the Cherry Kings (rockabilly).

September 8 (Friday): Wasted Space (rock) 6 pm.

On September 24 (Sunday) Todd Morgan and the Emblems will entertain at Gibbons Park, 4701 Gibbons Drive, Carmichael. Downbeat is 5 pm.
