The Galactic Sherpas: a Michigan-based band delivering a truly one-of-a-kind live experience. Blending funk, reggae, and rock with deep, improvisational jams, their performances are unpredictable, immersive, and full of high-energy moments. Known for taking audiences on a dynamic sonic journey, they craft every show with creativity, spontaneity, and a groove that keeps fans dancing, smiling and coming back for more.

Get ready to groove your way into the weekend all summer long! Our outdoor summer music series in Gaylord will be happening every Friday night. That’s 14 free concerts right downtown (minus Alpenfest weekend). These family-friendly events start at 7:00 pm in Claude Shannon Park. If you think you’ll need a break from dancing, don’t forget to BYOC (bring your own chair). Drinks and food are available just steps away at our downtown locations.

In the event of rain, concerts will take place under the Pavilion across the street. Stay up-to-date by following the Downtown Gaylord Summer Concert Series on Facebook.  Full Lineup Here!
