(upbeat music) - Here's a fun and free way to kick off your summer music festival lineup, Heart & Soul Music Stroll turns a Sugar House neighborhood into an outdoor music festival with 40 plus performers, food trucks, and activities for kids.

Here with a sneak peek of what you can expect are Ainsley McLaughlin and Phil Triolo.

Thank you so much for being here.

Ainsley, tell me what people can expect at this year's event.

- Hi.

So Music Stroll is on June 13th, and Music Stroll is a celebration of Heart & Soul and the performers that go out every year throughout the community to bring music into people who don't have access.

So this year, Music Stroll is just a celebration, it's fun, it's free, and we have over 40 different performers.

- And Mr.

Triolo, you are one of those performers.

What is it like being on stage in the community and seeing the excitement and people dance in the streets in this community?

- Yeah, it's an amazingly fun event for us to be able to play for so many people.

And usually, you know, almost everyone who is going to be playing at Music Stroll also volunteers for Heart & Soul in some capacity.

And so we're usually playing for people who are confined to a space, and instead we have folks who are coming out who can enjoy the music, you know, with us.

And so it's a great opportunity to share some of our music with a wider audience.

- And I love seeing so many families there with their kiddos, and it's almost like a reunion for some people to go to this event.

- Yeah, everyone comes out, it's always been the second Saturday in June, so people really look forward to it, and there's a big playground in the park and it's free, and it's just, there's something for everybody.

- And Phil, I see you brought your clarinet.

Is there something that you could play and kind of give us a sneak peek of what we can expect at Heart & Soul Music Stroll?

- I don't know that my clarinet is typical of what you hear there, because of course it's dominated by those guitar things and those other stringed instruments, but occasionally they let us- - (laughs) But that's a treat.

Yeah.

- Occasionally though, they let us woodwind instruments, you know, in, and whenever they do then they're kind of stuck with me, so sure.

(upbeat clarinet music) - Ah, that is fantastic.

Thank you guys so much for being here and giving us a sneak peek of this event.

If you would like to attend Heart & Soul Music Stroll, it's June 13th from 3:00 to 8:00 PM at Imperial Park in that neighborhood.
