De La Buena at Bay View's Chill on the Hill
Milwaukee County offers free live music in its parks most nights of the week during the summer, but for Bay View residents one outdoor music series looms above them all: Chill on The Hill, the neighborhood's weekly Tuesday night concert series at the Humboldt Park Bandshell. Today the Bay View Neighborhood Association revealed the lineup for 2017's Chill on The Hill, and it's one of the series' best yet, featuring some of the city's sharpest newer live acts (D'Amato, Abby Jeanne), some bold picks (Piles!), and some proven staples (the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra, De La Buena and the American Legion Band).
