Sunsets on SOMA is back, and the vibes are bigger than ever. With high‑energy live music, ice‑cold adult beverages from Susquehanna Brewing Company, cornhole, and plenty of outdoor seating to kick back and soak in the scene, it’s the perfect recipe for a summer night in the heart of Downtown Wilkes-Barre. Get ready for good music, good company, and unforgettable evenings.
This week's music brought to you by The Outcrops. They were named "NJ Band of the Year" ('The Aquarian, 2020) for "three reasons: a work ethic that makes them one of the Dirty Jerz’s hardest-working bands, guitar-playing that fuses the sounds of Duane Allman and Jerry Garcia, and a refreshing fusion of roots, soul, blues, funk, and psychedelic rock that sounds wholly new while comfortably familiar." They have dug their roots into the music of rock'n'roll, blues, jazz, funk, folk, and soul legends, choosing B-side tunes to put their own spin on. Within their show, they may pay homage to bands such as the Grateful Dead & the Band, or artists such as BB King & Aretha Franklin. Their original music stems from that same soulful soil, ranging from gritty blues to upbeat Americana.
