On July 12, Edmonds residents are invited to enjoy live music performed from porches, front yards, and storefronts during PorchFest Edmonds. Hosted by both businesses and residents, PorchFest is transforming neighborhood gathering spaces into temporary performance venues by setting up drum kits on decks, running extension cords from living rooms, and treating the sidewalk itself as a stage. Genres typically range from indie rock and jazz to acoustic sets, blues, and community choirs. Get more details here.
