Rock, Americana, jazz, Latin, blues and world music, plus shows geared for children — all are part of the annual summertime fare at the Levitt Pavilion Pasadena and Levitt Pavilion Los Angeles (in Westlake’s MacArthur Park).
The L.A. lineup features a reprise of legendary songwriter Jimmy Webb’s 2013 performance at the location that inspired the hit song “MacArthur Park.” That show is July 9. Rocky Dawuni, Buyepongo and three festivals — mariachi, ska and Korean — are also scheduled for that location.
Among this year’s performers in Pasadena’s Memorial Park (85 E. Holly St.) are the Chambers Brothers, Glen Phillips, Karla Bonoff, David Lindley, Quetzal, AJ Croce and Sara Watkins.
