The summer solstice is the longest day of the year. At Barboza this year, it was also an evening jam packed with fun tunes, from headliner Erin Rae & The Heartbeets, who switched up their signature red jumpsuits for a more summery flair. Rae and company were joined by local soul-rock group James Anaya & The Current, with Seattle trio Harrison B warming up the crowd.
