Positively jammin’: No matter the weather, the vibes will be sunny at Springfest, an all-reggae concert featuring Mighty Joshua and Positive Collective. Hailing from Richmond and backed by Zion #5, Mighty Joshua weaves conscious lyrics with one-love energy in classic and original tunes that elevate and uplift. Charlottesville’s Positive Collective draws influence from ska, roots reggae, and Caribbean and West African grooves, and has performed with everyone from Culture to The Wailers. It’s outside, it’s socially distanced, and it’s jammin’.
Saturday 4/17, $15-20, 3pm. IX Art Park, 522 Second St SE. ixartpark.org.
