Channel One summer music series kicks off this weekend

The Channel One complex on Changshou Lu is teaming up with Soma for a summer concert series. Despite our natural misgivings about rock bands playing in shopping malls, the line-up is a good one. Things start this weekend with Pinkberry and The Mushrooms on Saturday and Da Fresh and Momo on the Sunday. Spread out over four weekends, the concerts will see eight of the city's finest young bands in various combinations.

The full schedule is as follows:

Saturday, July 18: Pinkberry, The Mushrooms
Sunday, July 19: Da Fresh, Momo
Saturday, July 25: Hard Queen, Candy Shop
Sunday, July 26: Candy Shop, Little Nature
Saturday, August 8: Little Nature, Sonnet
Sunday, August 9: Da Fresh, Momo
Saturday, August 15: Hard Queen, Pinkberry
Sunday, August 16: The Mushrooms, Sonnet

The first band on each day will play at 1:30pm, the second at 6pm.
