2025 Music in the Park Concert Series Kicks Off May 22

A popular change last year was to add a concert on the Thursday before Katy Days begins. It's cooler weather, some vendors are already in place, and it kicks off the 26th Annual Katy Days Festival. This year's pre-Katy Days concert features The BakBeatz on Thursday, May 22.

This quartet of highly skilled musicians lend their talents to perform a selection of your favorite classic FM rock tunes sprinkled with groovy arrangements of soul, funk, blues, and R&B tunes for good measure. It's almost impossible to keep your seat when The Bakbeatz lay down that beat!

Joining The Bakbeatz will be a performance by a highly recognized artist who has had the honor to perform internationally and with many famous musicians, Todd East. Blind from birth, Todd began playing piano and singing at the age of three and initiated his professional career at the age of fifteen. After high school, this native New Yorker continued his education, graduating with degrees in Music Education and Theory. As a master of the piano, with vocal skills reminiscent of Stevie Wonder, Todd is highly sought out for his musical interpretations of classic and contemporary funk, soul, and pop selections.
