The event is a free, family-friendly outdoor music concert.
The Sanctuary’s house band “The Raptor Project” will be perform their songs in the amphitheater as birds of prey fly inches over the heads of those in the audience.
The house band is a warm-up for local fan favorite Javier Mendoza.
According to a WBS press release:
Javier has received many honors throughout his career. He is currently nominated for Best Solo Artist at The 2010-2011’s Riverfront Time’s Music Awards. He was voted Best Male Vocalist by the Reader’s Poll at the 2009’s Riverfront Time’s Music Awards, and also in 2009 KDHX Radio voted Javier Best Latin Artist.
With 11 albums spanning 11 years Javier demonstrates that he knows where he comes from and where he is going. On each CD he combines new influences, new musical inspirations and life experiences with the common thread of hope for the future. His dedication to creating new and different material and his passion for live performance keeps bringing the fans back again and again. Whether he’s playing for 10 people or a crowd of 10,000, Javier makes each show unforgettable. The physical and emotional energy he delivers is truly amazing and must be experienced to be believed.
Rather than focusing primarily on the future he is focusing on “Now” and how incredible the journey of life can be if you let it. For Javier living in the “Now” is about personal growth, working with great musicians, new fans, long time fans, and welcoming all that life has to offer without hesitation. When the big record labels come knocking Javier will be ready but until then, he plans to make the most of every second.
The World Bird Sanctuary is at 125 Bald Eagle Ridge Road in Valley Park.
Admission to the concert and parking are free. No reservations are required. You can bring a picnic or purchase concessions onsite.
