Concert in Court Yard series @ MFA

If you are a concert geek who prefers a relatively small and intimate concert experience, then "Concert in Court Yard" series at the MFA might just be your cup of tea.

It's is an outdoor summer concert series at the MFA and surprisingly handful of good indie bands/musicians are alway in the series.

This year, Beth Orton and Grizzly Bear will be performing July 2nd, 2008 and August 14th, 2008 respectively. 

Beth Orton (<-iTunes Store) came into music scene in the mid 90's when she did vocals for William Orbit and Chemical Brothers and then she gone to make her own music which was a mixture of folk/pop/electronica. 

I only got to know Grizzly Bear (<-iTunes Store) through Girl Talk's remix of "Knife" a year ago. First, I thought it was another classic Girl Talk mix, but then I stumbled on the original track few months after that and I was hook. Their music is grand symphonic melodies that has a cinematic feel to it. 

Anyhoo, even if you are not into arts & museums, if you are a music fan, then check out the Concert in Court Yard at the MFA.
