The Summer of Music series, sponsored by Civic Joy Fund and produced in partnership with Noise Pop, brings local musicians to perform throughout 9 neighborhoods across the city all summer long.

Saturday will be a lovely day to stroll Valencia St. shops and eateries and to enjoy some music.

Emily Afton is a queer multi-instrumentalist singer-songwriter and performer with roots across California, in Oakland, San Diego, and Los Angeles. Her nostalgia-infused alt-pop has been described by NPR as “...wonderful, wonderful electro-pop that’s weary of life, but positive," and draws influence from a wide musical spectrum including the likes of Fiona Apple, Frank Ocean, and Robyn.- artist website
