August 31 - Finest Hour featuring the Broadband Horns
Finest Hour was created in 1977, and since then has evolved through dozens of line-ups. The first gig with the current line-up was in November 2008. The band members share a passion for music, but also have very busy lives and limit the number of performances. Thus, the garden is very fortunate to be able to feature this group at Tempo of Twilight. http://finesthourband.com/home/

Outlaw Con Bandana will close the Tempo of Twilight concert series on Tuesday, September 14. Outlaw's music occupies a space between bluegrass stomp and old-timey blues. Outlaw Con Bandana has released 5 albums and could be compared to the voices of Townes Van Zandt or Leonard Cohen. Visit their website to get a preview of their music. http://slumberpartyrecords.com/
