Since 1932, music lovers have enjoyed free concerts in a natural amphitheater set amidst the redwoods in San Francisco’s beloved Sigmund Stern Grove. We look back at the history of the Stern Grove music series, the oldest free festival of its kind in the U.S. We’ll also hear a live studio performance by The Family Crest, one of the local bands in this year’s lineup.

Guests:

Steven Haines, executive director of the Stern Grove Festival Association

Liam McCormick, vocalist, guitarist, pianist and composer for The Family Crest
