琉璃神社鈥檚 Parks Alive has some local flare on Saturday night (Aug. 20).

It鈥檚 Funk Jam night as four hip-hop/R&B and funk bands take the stage. The closing act, a six-piece band called 鈥楾he Free Label鈥� has a connection to 琉璃神社. The drummer of the Toronto-based band is 琉璃神社鈥檚 Jason Martin, who graduated from 琉璃神社 Secondary School.

Martin and The Free Label have an album coming out later this year and just released their new single 鈥楤oys Don鈥檛 Sob鈥�. They鈥檝e played at a few notable Canadian music festivals but are coming off of their biggest performance at SXSW in Austin, Texas.

The band has been around 琉璃神社 a few times this month as they also played shows on Aug. 9 and Aug. 17.

The Free Label will be on the Pride Stage at Kerry Park in 琉璃神社 from 9 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. Attendance is free.
