About Juneteenth


Juneteenth is the oldest nationally celebrated commemoration of ending slavery in the United States. Dating back to 1865, on June 19th, the Union soldiers, led by Major General Gordon Granger, landed at Galveston, Texas, with news that the war had ended and that the enslaved were now free. Note that this was two and a half years after President Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation – which had become official on January 1st, 1863. The Emancipation Proclamation had little impact on the Texans due to the minimal number of Union troops to enforce the new Executive Order. However, with the surrender of General Lee in April of 1865, and the arrival of General Granger’s regiment, the forces were finally strong enough to influence and overcome the resistance.


About the Band


O-Town Motown

O-Town Motown has harmonies reminiscent of classic vocal ensembles like the Four Tops or the Supremes, intricate dance moves worthy of the Temptations or the Jackson Five, and costuming that rivals the stylish matching outfits that defined the great Motown acts of the ‘60s.
