Who Is Performing at Oswego's Beats and Eats? Take a Listen

Things are really starting to roll for the first Oswego Beats and Eats outdoor music festival. 

The festival, which will be hosted between the Village of Oswego and Oswego businessman and resident Macey Brooks, wants to celebrate diversity through music, art and food. 

Community relations manager Michele Brown said the festival hopes to draw in a different demographic - like those in their twenties - that current festivals in Oswego do not reach.

Beat and Eats is set for Saturday, Aug. 10 from 12 p.m. to 10 p.m. at Prairie Point Park.

But what's a festival without some music?
