Kent Station's Soulful Sounds of Summer concerts will be held on the Fountain Stage outside of AMC Theatres, and the live music is free to the public, thanks to premier sponsor Qliance and supporting sponsors Acura of Seattle at Southcenter and the City of Kent.

Meg Tronquet, marketing coordinator for Qliance, says, "Qliance is proud to be more than just a business in Kent, but an active participant in the community. We are delighted to support the concerts and offer free entertainment to the community and to our patients."

The City of Kent is also sponsoring the free summer concert series as well as adding its own free entertainment line-up including Wednesday Picnic Performances at Town Square Plaza and Thursdays at the Lake at Lake Meridian Park.

"The City is pleased to continue its partnership with Kent Station for the summer concert series," says cultural programs manager Ronda Billerbeck with the City of Kent. "These free events, along with our own, add value and entertainment to our community at a price everyone can afford!"
