City of Atascadero Presents 2025 “Saturday in the Park” Summer Concert Series - Featuring Garden Party on July 5th!

The City of Atascadero is incredibly pleased to announce Garden Party as the next band for the 2025 “Saturdays in the Park” Summer Concert Series! Mark your calendar for Saturday, July 5th at 6:30 pm at the Atascadero Lake Park Bandstand!

Garden Party is led by Danny Grasseschi with an all-star group of amazing pro level players - Mark Paisley on keys, Rob Espinosa on guitar and vocals, Russ Kuster on bass and vocals and co-founding member Steve Hilstein on drums. Five seasoned musicians that have been playing in multiple bands since their teens. For over 12 consecutive years they’ve joined together as a band, playing music for friends in Robin's Garden in Cambria for their "Summer Nights" series. From this experience (and the Rick Nelson song) came the name "Garden Party". They all have a passion for live music. Together Garden Party plays covers of 60's and 70's folk rock music, with the goal of spreading peace, love and good vibrations through their authentic covers of some of the greatest hippie songs ever written!  Be sure to mark your calendar for a fantastic concert series line-up:
