Matthew N. Wells / The Daily World World Music Day 2023 saw tens of musicians and music enthusiasts arrive on South K Street, pictured, and West Wishkah Street. The musicians played acoustically on the sidewalks. This year however, World Music Day 2024 is going through “unbridled growth,” according to Wil Russoul, one of the main organizers for the event, which will feature Rock & Roll Hall of Fame musicians, international musicians, and “more surprises” who are on the way. The event has outgrown its two-street size, as Don Stone will perform at Westport Winery, and other venues throughout Aberdeen will host shows.
