Andrew McMahon is heading back to the stage in front of an audience amid the coronavirus pandemic.
On Tuesday (June 16), the singer/songwriter announced a quarantine-friendly way to enjoy live music. He and his band will be performing two very special drive-in concerts next month on July 10 and 11 in the parking lot at the City National Grove of Anaheim.
While fans will have to stay in their cars, the gig is pretty intimate as only a little over 230 cars fit in the parking lot.
“In a time where shows are scarce, this is an opportunity for us to gather safely and celebrate live music under the stars,” he wrote on Instagram. “ I’ll be performing 2 live shows at the City National Grove of Anaheim on July 10 and 11 to kick off Drive-In OC.”
This won't just be a normal Andrew McMahon In The Wilderness show either, he announced that the show will be in celebration of the Jack’s Mannequin LP, Everything in Transit, turning 15 and he'll play the album in full. McMahon and his band will also be playing a variety of songs from his original band, Something Corporate, as well as The Wilderness tracks.
“It also felt like the perfect time to celebrate the 15th Anniversary of 'Everything In Transit', which my band and I will be playing front-to-back, in addition to other favorite songs from The Wilderness and Something Corporate,” he explained.
