The Harbor Islands are a great place for Bostonians to visit anytime during the summer, but starting Saturday, Berklee presents a bonus reason to go - free live music.

The concerts, part of Berklee Summer in the City, are on June 16, July 21 and August 18, and feature three back-to-back up and coming students, faculty and alumni who will rock Fort Warren on Georges Island with rock pop, blues, funk, soul, folk and more.

Here's the lineup, now go get your ferry ticket!
