As part of the Friends of Garfield Park's "Music in the Garden" free concert series, the local jazz/bluegrass/ragtime band Naptown Strutters, featuring trumpeter (and occasional trombonist) Tom Mullinix, performed in the Sunken Garden of Garfield Park. Since the show occurred late in August, the sun set early, casting a dark golden hue on the garden. The crowd was sizable, hence, the decision to capture a bit more of the people in the audience than usual.

The Wright Brothers Band has been an entertainment stalwart in Central Indiana for at least two decades. The group broke into the national limelight in the 1980s with the country-western chart-scoring single "Family Man" and has been a local, Indianapolis-area favorite ever since. The Wright Brothers Band has appeared on more than one occasion as featured musical entertainment for the annual "America, We Remember" Fourth of July celebration in Garfield Park. On Aug. 19, 2006, the band gave a free concert, as part of the "Music in the Park" series sponsored by Friends of Garfield Park and Indy Parks, at the MacAllister Center for the Performing Arts. These images were taken at that concert.
