Prepare yourselves to rock the block. The Edmonds Chamber of Commerce has announced the official music lineup for the first annual Edmonds Block Party, happening Aug. 8-9 at the Civic Center Playfield. This summer celebration promises two unforgettable days of music, community and fun for all ages, the chamber said.
Headlining the weekend is Heart by Heart, featuring original Heart members Steve Fossen and Michael Derosier, — delivering classic rock hits that defined a generation. They’ll play at 8:30 p.m. Friday. Saturday’s headliner — also playing at 8:30 p.m. — is New Moon on Monday, a top-tier Duran Duran tribute from the Bay Area.
Other bands gracing the Main Stage:
– Coool Babies – bringing the energy of Talking Heads to life.
– Queen Mother – a dazzling Queen tribute.
– Lady A, Nikki and the Fast Times, and more fan-favorite acts.
Live music kicks off within 30 minutes of gates opening each day, so the chamber advises you come early and stay for the full experience of dancing, singing and good vibes.
Saturday is Family Day. Starting at 1 p.m., the all-ages stage features live performances by the Swiftified Tribute (Taylor Swift Tribute) and School of Rock Lynnwood. Throughout the day, families can enjoy:
– Art activities
– A live animal encounter with The Reptile Man
– Putt-putt mini golf
– Bounce house obstacle course
Kids under 21 get in free Saturday, so bring the whole crew.
