Nightfall - June
Celebrate the 20th season of Nightfall in 2008!
Featuring a wide variety of headline performances by world-class musicians from around the globe every Friday evening from Memorial Day weekend through the last weekend of September 26 at Miller Plaza.

Shows begin at 7:00 PM with a local opening act, followed by the evening's headline performer at 8:00 PM.
No Nightfall Concerts due to Riverbend Festival
 

Headline Act: Back Door Slam
Opening Act: Dylan Kussman Band

This young power trio from the Isle of Man has spent the last year on an extensive American tour including Austin City Limits, SXSW, Lollapolooza, the 2008 Bonneroo Festival and support dates with musical legends The Who and Styx. Their mindblowing brand of contemporary/traditional blues-rock and extraordinary vocal and guitaring talent have conjured comparisons to Eric Clapton and Jimi Hendrix.

Headline Act: Groundation
Opening Act: Ogya
An internationally renowned roots reggae band from Sonoma in Northern California, Groundation aims to take reggae to new heights by blending elements of both jazz and dub into their pioneering sound.

Michelle Shocked
I drove from Atlanta, GA just to see Michelle Shocked at the Miller Plaza and I simply loved it. Watching Michelle dance the electric slide with the audience was great!
