Redline Syndicate performs at the 2022 Rendezvous in the Park at East City Park in Moscow.
The Eugene, Ore.,-based Cherry Poppin’ Daddies headlines Moscow’s annual Rendezvous in the Park this weekend at East City Park, 900 E. Third St.
The swing-ska (jazz, rock, punk … ) band was established in 1989 and gained fame for songs like 1997’s “Zoot Suit Riot” from the album of the same name. The group’s newest single, “When You’re A Clown,” is available on most streaming platforms.
The Daddies play Saturday, with Muzzie Braun & Friends, The Hurricane Surfers and Delta G Band rounding out the lineup.
Friday’s ticket includes Diggin Dirt, from Humboldt County, Calif.; the return of Moscow-born singer-songwriter Josh Ritter; and local band Yellow Dog Flats.
Gates open at 4:30 p.m. both days.
Tickets, $40 per day or $70 for a festival pass, are at rendezvousinthepark.com.
