NOTO Live Kick Off  Friday September 20, 6-9PM

Join us Friday evening for the kick off to our annual NOTO Live event. Enjoy FREE music in Redbud Park with KC’s Ernest James Zydeco band!  With the unlikeliest of instruments—the accordion—Ernest James and his band travel on a soulful musical journey, from the most traditional Louisiana Zydeco to irreverent foot-stomping dance parties. EJZ plays upbeat music featuring the accordion and scrub board with a fulfilling, authentic grittiness. This is one concert you don’t want to miss!

Local musician Luke Shibmeir as opener. Live art painting performance by Jancy Pettit. Vendors and more.

Other Events:
Compass Point, 6-9 Music by Justwynmore Band and Food Truck by Cooking Mike.
