The remainder of the SummerMusic 2007 schedule:

• Aug. 1 -- The Beausoleil sextet, mixing the rich Creole and Cajun traditions of Louisiana with zydeco, New Orleans jazz, blues, Tex-Mex and more. Beausoliel has recorded more than 30 albums, including the 1997 Grammy-winning L'amour Ou La Folie. Founder Michael Doucet is the recipient of a National Heritage Fellowship.

• Aug. 21 -- Grupo Fantasma, hailed by the Pop Culture Press as "one of the all-time great Texas dance bands."

The group has opened for a wide range of artists including Los Lobos, Flaco Jimenez, Patti Smith and KRS-One. Grupo Fantasma's honors include a 2005 Univision Award as best Latin rock group.
