It was a beautiful afternoon for an al fresco concert hosted by Outport in the Burbs and The Van Vleck House and Gardens. Joe Allocco opened the show with his intricate guitar work. Singer/songwriter Shannon McNally brought a little bit of Nashville with her, with a fine mix of originals and covers. Her beautiful voice exudes country!

Another great time at Outpost in the Burbs with a return engagement of the Light of Day concert series.
