Dixie Power Trio headlines Aug. 16 SummerSounds Concert in Old Town Manassas

Dixie Power Trio,  a four-piece group dedicated to the music and sounds of Louisiana, will present a free SummerSounds concert on Saturday, Aug. 16, starting at 6:30 p.m. at the Harris Pavilion in Old Town Manassas.

Based in Fredericksburg, the group has toured extensively throughout the United States in support of its seven independently produced recordings.

In a typical set the Dixie Power Trio will play different styles including zydeco, Cajun, New Orleans jazz, funk, street parade, and rock.

The songs are a mix of Louisiana-flavored originals and covers—all with a unique, happy-go-lucky attitude, according to a press release.

The band’s music has been featured on NPR’s “All Thing’s Considered” and on several WB television shows.

Over the past few years the Dixie Power Trio has shared the concert stage with many Louisiana music luminaries including Wynton Marsalis, the Neville Brothers, Dr. John, Terrence Simien, Chubby Carrier, the Dirty Dozen Brass Band, the Olympia Brass Band, and Beausoleil, according to the news release.

Presented by the Center for the Arts; a gift from Micron Technology Foundation and the City of Manassas. Rain or Shine.
