Councilman Anthony Young Spearheads 13 Mini-Concerts at select Orange Line Trolley Stations in December
The Orange Line’s second annual holiday music series begins on Friday, December 12, from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. at the Euclid Avenue Trolley Station. The first musical groups to perform will be the Lincoln High School String Ensemble and the San Diego Afternoon Strings. During the next 12 days there will be a dozen more musical concerts featuring other performers like Prince Habib, Alesia Rhodes, Willie Green, TeCheeta Lopez with Gerardo Nuno on keyboard and DJ Kool T.
The holiday music is spearheaded by San Diego Councilman and MTS Board Member Anthony Young, with support from the Jacobs Center for Neighborhood Innovation, Coca-Cola, and MTS. This is Councilman Young’s second year to offer the holiday music series.
“I hope this music will make this holiday season more enjoyable for the community. “ Councilman Young said, “Last year the music put a lot of smiles on the faces of many bus and trolley riders as they arrived to go to work or when they returned home.”
The funding from Councilman Young was made possible through the City of San Diego’s Commission for Arts and Culture.
“Music is a holiday treat for riders and will make their morning or afternoon commute that more enjoyable,” said MTS CEO Paul Jablonski.
The schedule alternates between morning and afternoon performances at either the Euclid Avenue and 62nd Street Trolley Stations:
