This summer, students, faculty, and alumni from Berklee will perform hundreds of free concerts at some of the most notable outdoor venues throughout Boston and the Greater Boston area as part of the Summer in the City concert series.

Performances will take place from May through September at beloved locations throughout the city, such as the Boston Public Library, the Boston Harbor Islands, Longfellow House, the Institute of Contemporary Art, Lyrik Back Bay, and the Prudential Center, among others. Summer in the City performers will also be featured in various outdoor music festivals around Boston, such as the Tito Puente Latin Music Series, Swingin' in the Fens, and Jazz at the Fort.

The series will present a variety of musical genres, including blues, Latin, jazz, R&B, soul, pop, hip-hop, folk, and classical, as part of its 2025 programming. Notable Summer in the City artists include dance and pop artist Christian Inman; singer-songwriter Ruby Plume; alternative R&B artist Lauren Jean; multi-instrumentalist Lourde Childs; soul and R&B performer Aniy ; and jazz, R&B, and pop fusion artist and saxophonist An Tran.

Were looking forward to a summer filled with amazing music.- Michael Borgida, director of concert and video production

We are excited to collaborate with organizations throughout the city to bring music to different audiences and neighborhoods, said Michael Borgida, director of concert and video production. The concert series is one of Berklee's best contributions to our local community, with free shows by some of the most talented up-and-coming artists in the world. In addition to the performances, this series provides opportunities for current students to learn outside the classroom and gain experience in artist booking, live sound engineering, project management, and on-site promotion. I appreciate the hard work by our partners with the City of Boston's Parks and Recreation Department, Inquilinos Boricuas en Acci n, Fenway Civic Association, Friends of Ramler Park, and others who have helped put this series together. We're looking forward to a summer filled with amazing music.

Previous Summer in the City performers have included Grammy Award winners Laufey BM '21 and esperanza spalding BM '05, Beane BM '19, Betty Who '13, Madi Diaz '07, DOMi BM '20, Sierra Hull '11, and Ripe.
