It could not have been a more beautiful day Sunday for the HONK! Festival Parade. Over twenty Honk bands gathered in Davis Square to Honk together for peace, community and celebration. Musical traditions of the New Orleans groove, the Afro-Cuban groove, salsa, samba, Klezmer, Brazilian Afro Bloc, and Balkan and Romani music among others were represented in the long line of exciting and individual street bands. The Tufts-Somerville HONK! U marched in full force at the end of the parade, demonstrating our community’s potential to rally a band in just a short period of time. The bands marched proudly from Davis Square to Harvard Square and continued the celebration at Harvard Square’s Oktoberfest to conclude the third annual HONK! Festival.
