If you’ve ever experienced a Michael Franti concert at The Coves, you know it isn't just a concert, it’s a full body, high vibe celebration of life, community, and connection.
The Music: Soulful Vibes & Infectious Energy
Michael Franti & Spearhead (October 10th): Blending a seamless fusion of reggae, hip-hop, pop, folk, and rock, Michael Franti creates an irresistible dance-party atmosphere. Known for stepping directly into the crowd, singing alongside fans, and spreading an uplifting message of hope, unity, and positivity, his live performance is guaranteed to leave you energized and inspired.
Trampled By Turtles (October 13th): Keep the momentum going just three days later! Trampled By Turtles delivers high-octane, speed-picking bluegrass fused with raw, passionate indie-folk. Their lightning-fast acoustic strings and soulful harmonies create a live performance that bridges traditional roots music with rock-and-roll intensity.
