The UC Davis Health System announced its second annual summer concert on the Sacramento campus, a performance by the local dance band Hip Service.

The Davis campus already has hosted two summer concerts, and one more is scheduled.

The Sacramento and Davis concerts are free and open to the public. Here are the details:

Sacramento -- The Hip Service concert is set for 6 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 14, on the back lawn of the Education Building, 45th and X streets. Organizers said people are welcome to bring picnics, blankets and lawn chairs; also, food and beverages will be available for purchase. Alcoholic beverages are not permitted, nor is smoking, because officials declared the UC Davis Health System a smoke-free zone effective July 1.

Hip Service, named Sacramento Magazine's Best Party Band of 2007, plays rhythm and blues, classic rock and soul, Motown, '70s disco and smooth jazz.

Free parking will be available in Lots 12 and 17.

Davis -- Singer-songwriter Phoebe Snow is the scheduled performer on Monday, Aug. 25. The music is scheduled to begin at 7:30 p.m. on the Quad; people are welcome to start picnicking at 6:30. Alcoholic beverages are not permitted.

The concert is the last of three in SummerMusic 2008, presented by the Mondavi Center for the Performing Arts and sponsored by Summer Sessions.

Singing a combination of folk, jazz and pop, Snow came to prominence in 1974 with her self-titled debut album. The album's Poetry Man reached the top five on the charts, and Snow received a Grammy Award nomination as best new artist. She has been recording and touring since then, save time off to care for her daughter, Valerie, who was born with brain damage and who died last year at age 31.

Upon Snow's return to performing, reviewer Stephen Holder wrote in The New York Times: "She still has power to spare, along with a sound that is at once instantly recognizable and technically inimitable.

"You can call her what you want: a rock belter with supersonic high notes (Rockin Pneumonia and the Boogie Woogie Flu), a rhythm-and-blues shouter insisting on sexual equality (Do Right Woman, Do Right Man) or a moody coffee-voiced folk-jazz diva (Poetry Man). She is all of the above and everything in between."
