Backyard concerts are back for 2025. Jefferson Landing State Historic Site is excited to invite you to another season of live music on the Lohman lawn. This year, we're bringing back some familiar favorites and also introducing a "new to the Lohman" group.
These are family-friendly, BYOC (bring-your-own-chair) events, so bring your blankets, lawn chairs and picnic suppers for an evening of music that captures Missouri's music traditions past and present. These concerts are free and open to the public, and there is no need to register.
For more information, see the schedule below or call the Missouri State Museum director at 573-522-6949.
Concert Dates and Bands:
June 21: John Williams and Robert Mackey – Having performed on the Lohman lawn in 2023, this duo is back to play more traditional Missouri fiddle and guitar music.
July 19: Sadie Hawkins Day String Band – Another familiar favorite, this band uses traditional instrumental melodies and homegrown vocal harmonies to share old folk, country standards and more.
Aug. 16: The Creek Rocks – The Creek Rocks will make its Lohman debut by sharing traditional Ozark songs and original Ozark-inspired tunes. We're excited to see – and hear – what they can do.
Concert times: 7 p.m. - 8 p.m.
Concert location: Lohman Building lawn, 100 Jefferson St., Jefferson City
