Emory Village Alliance is proud to present the Coca-Cola Clean Up the Creek Concert on Saturday, April 26, on the Emory Village lawn on the corner of North Decatur and South Oxford roads.

The headliner, the Yes Ma’am Family band, is an epic Georgia music collaboration, with connections that span the most prolific years in Peach State music history. The core members are Caroline Aiken, Liz Melendez, and Diane Durrett.

These collaborators invite a "movable feast at the Yes Ma’am Family Band's expansive table" to honorary and occasional guests Donna Hopkins, Michelle Malone, Danielle Howle, and other talented musicians. Their music includes harmonies to live for; guitar mastery that runs the full gamut of aching subtlety, acoustic intensity, and soulful electricity; and commanding piano that rouses the senses.

Opening bands include The Flying Saucers, a local band that plays Ventures’-style instrumental music, and Nero Simon and the Sunsetters, an Atlanta 8-piece ensemble that delivers a sun-drenched trove of original music filled with visions of sunsets, sand and surf.

Bring your friends and family and your low chairs and blankets. Picnic on food from village restaurants or a food truck and enjoy drinks from EVA’s beverage stand. VIP tables may be purchased closer to the event.

​Free parking is available in Emory Village lots and Emory’s Fishburne and Oxford decks.

Funds raised will help South Fork Conservancy complete the stabilization of the creek bank in Emory Village rear Panera Restaurant and install a trash trap and rain garden to slow down and absorb storm water.
