6. On Sept. 6, Thea Wang plays Junction Park, from 5 to 9 p.m. 

"There is something wonderfully unique that precedes Thea Wang's solar system. With a deep intensity random encounters, loneliness and love is transformed into sonorous short stories that open doors into others' lives, where we get to be guests for a little while. Melodic pop songs take unexpected leaps and fits her magical voice perfectly, electronics and samples are helping to modernize a traditional acoustic singer/songwriter genre at the same time as Joni's heart beats behind it. And soon comes the debut album," reads the listing.
