Royer Park will be caught in the crossfire this summer as a Stevie Ray Vaughan cover band and four other acts appear as part of “Roseville Music in the Park.”

The summer series, in its 25th year, kicks off at 6 p.m. June 11 in Roseville with a performance by Wonderbread 5, a popular hits band. The other planned performances, according to a flyer for the series, include the Capitol Pops concert band, a tribute band for Steely Dan and Chicago, a tribute band for Stevie Ray Vaughan, and a Beatles tribute band closing out the season on Sept. 10.

With the exception of Capitol Pops, all the acts will perform at 6 p.m. at Royer Park. Event organizer Dale Liang said local middle and high school students will perform a half-hour before the 6 p.m. shows as opening acts.

Only the Capitol Pops show will begin at 11 a.m., immediately following the city’s holiday parade but several hours before traditional evening fireworks.

All five shows in the series have free admission, with food available for purchase from a number of vendors including Jersey Mike’s Subs and Rosati’s Pizza. All ages are welcome at the shows.

Roseville Vice Mayor Bonnie Gore, one of the sponsors for “Music in the Park,” said it was the first organization she volunteered with when she moved to the area in the late 1990s.

“One of the things I love about Roseville is, we have many different venues where people can come for free to enjoy not only music or great entertainment but being a part of a community,” Gore said.

Liang said the shows attract an average of 1,000 to 3,000 people.

“It’s family-friendly,” Liang said. “It’s something you can do on a Sunday afternoon and just not have to worry about things.”

One thing will be slightly different this year’s slate of concerts, though. Davis-based rock band Mumbo Gumbo, a perennial mainstay for the event, isn’t scheduled to perform this summer.

“We had a little trouble synching up,” Liang said. “They’ll probably return, maybe next year. We might even add another show for next year if we were to get enough sponsors.”

Liang said that if a sixth show is added, the 2018 concert series will begin in May.

Run by a nonprofit group with a board of directors, “Music in the Park” receives only limited funds from the city.

“I think it’s lasted because there’s been a great group of volunteers that continue to put it on every year and I think it meets a need,” Gore said. “It’s just a great community event.”
