 By Laura Medina

This Memorial Day Saturday rocked with Kimberly Dawn and Six Gun Sal.

As one of the few live in-house rock concerts emerging out of COVID-19 quarantine, folks were ready to rock and party!

Memorial Day weekend brings Six Gun Entertainment and the Scottish Rite Organization’s first annual Run for the Rite and A Night of Southern Rock on Saturday, May 29. The all-day festival benefits nonprofits that work with homeless and disabled veterans, including the American Soldier Networks, Tickets for Troops, and One World Media. 

The day kicks off at one of three Harley-Davidson locations in SoCal (Antelope Valley at 8 a.m. Harbor City at 9 a.m. or Los Angeles at 10 a.m.). From there, bikers head to the Scottish Rite Event Center in Long Beach for food, vendors, beer, live local music, a raffle of a gorgeous Michael Kelly Guitar, and other festivities starting at 11:30 a.m. The event opens with the National Anthem and a Salute to our American Soldiers. The day culminates in A Night of Southern Rock, featuring Six Gun Sal (Southern Rock), country singer Kimberly Dawn, and Scott Gronsky (Soul Bluegrass).
