AERONAUT Allston is back!!!
We've been packing crowds into the awesome new outdoor community program and performance space at Zone 3's hub of activity, 267 Western Ave in Allston. It's an upgrade from the blacktop parking lot of the past two years – but it still feels like home!
Our 3rd season showcases the best in local bands and musicians, fantastic local food trucks, and great beer!
AERONAUT Allston takes place every WEDNESDAY (5-9:30pm) and FRIDAY (5-11pm), June 1 to September 28 at Zone 3 (267 Western Ave). See our full season lineup here: http://www.zone3westernave.com/aeronaut/
Zone 3 is a Harvard-sparked initiative to further activate and energize Western Ave with creative programs, events, and retail. More info: Zone3WesternAve.com
These events are family-friendly, however, please note that under 21s are allowed in only with a parent or legal guardian.
Read below for details on this evening's featured acts and other details. Bring your friends, neighbors, kids, and your dog, and we'll see you under the string lights!
Cheers,
the AERONAUT Allston team

FEATURED MUSICAL ACTS for FRI AUG 17
We're sure to have a packed crowd so get there EARLY for the best seats on the lawn.
Drown Your Boots (7pm)
Since the 2016 release of their debut EP, Lightswitch, Drown Your Boots have taken their energetic fusion of rock, folk, and americana to some of the best music clubs across the country.
They have headlined and packed out venues on both coasts, from Union Hall and Mercury Lounge in New York City, to Timewarp Records and Brick & Mortar Music Hall in California. With a sound reminiscent of early Modest Mouse and Ryan Adams, the trio of Brooklyn transplants mix self-reflective songwriting with spirited improvisation and musical virtuosity.
They’ve been featured by one of Boston’s biggest pop/rock radio stations, 104.1 The Mix, as well as Brighton’s WEMF. In August 2018, they will release and tour nationally off their first full-length album, Hello, Below.

Citizen Slim (9pm)
In 2014, two venerable songwriters decided that "acoustic" music is for wussies. They dusted off the Telecasters and tube amps they had stashed away and decided to rock out. Years of folk immersion had rendered them unable to write about anything other than trucks, trains, and the aforementioned telecasters. Whatever, it's loud and awesome.
When he's not touring nationally, Greg Klyma hosts Americana Sundays in Union Square.
