The Event is Part of Big Night Out- a Series of Concerts Under the Stars in Public Spaces

Atlanta festival producer Rival Entertainment is presenting an Evening with CAKE September 28 at the Historic Fourth Ward Skatepark. Self-described as Hank Williams Sr. and Sly Stone having a party and playing  AC/DC records backward, CAKE is better known as the antithesis of grunge behind the half-singing/half-speaking lyrics of lead John McCrea, trumpeter Vince DiFiore, guitarist San McCurdy, bassist Daniel McCallum, and drummer Todd Roper. Hits such as "Rock' n' Roll Lifestyle," "The Distance," the Gloria Gaynor disco classic "I Will Survive," "Short Skirt/Long Jacket," and others have fueled the platinum-selling rock outfit past the grunge era to a new wave of fans.
