First in Flight

Summertime on the Alameda is a celebration of our community and Bay Area artists. Bring your lunch, listen to some great, varied music, and make a friend! The concert series is held on the front lawn.Summertime on the Alameda is hosted by Wednesday Revive at Westminster Presbyterian and the Shasta Hanchett Park Neighborhood Association (SHPNA).At the end of 2015, best friends Richard Mier (lead guitar) and David Topete (bass) looked at each other during a Walk the Moon concert and said “we can do this”. After weeks of jamming in their gear stuffed rooms, they teamed with drummer Max Huss, who jumped over from David's brothers band, and found singer/songwriter Pat McCloskey through Craigslist (I know right?). Hailing from Chicago with a pretty falsetto and stories of too many bizarre nights, Pat brought the pop dynamic the band needed to project their neo-80s rock into the modern age. On September 1st 2016, the band was officially formed. With their new found chemistry, the band quickly began polishing their songs for the stage and studio. Their goal was simple: make the tracks for your party/kickback/heartbreak playlist. Their debut EP “HOLD ON THE HIGHS” was released January 6th and they look forward to tour the Western Part of the US in 2017.
