A wonderful new live music venue has opened up and presented by Jenna Dirval who owns Dirval Music Associates. A large open outdoor gathering on a marble floor with columns reminding one of a Greek amphitheatre.





Live musician Franklee Anatra was singing sweetly with his guitar covering popular tunes from today and yesterday.
