The Prospect Park Band Shell has played host to some amazing shows the past few summers (i.e. Manu Chao, Yo La Tengo, Malajube). This summer should be no different. The NY Times writes:

This summer’s lineup for the free concert series at the Prospect Park band shell includes Miriam Makeba; Beth Orton; a screening of the Bruce Leemovie “Enter the Dragon,” with live accompaniment by Karsh Kale; a tribute to the R&B singer Bill Withers; and a benefit by Feist.”
