(BRIDGEPORT, CT) – Something bold is brewing at Connecticut’s Beardsley Zoo. In a new partnership with Sound Coffee, the Zoo is proud to introduce Beardsley Blend, encouraging guests to stay wild and stay grounded. This small-batch coffee debuted earlier this summer at the Zoo’s highly anticipated Wild Wine, Beer & Food Safari and is now pouring in the Peacock Café and available for purchase in the gift shop. Blended locally and roasted with purpose, Beardsley Blend isn’t just a great cup of coffee, it’s a commitment to conservation. A portion of every bag sold supports the Zoo’s mission to educate, engage, and inspire conservation action. “This collaboration brings together two local organizations passionate about community, sustainability, and great flavor,” said Jeff Roy, Founder of Sound Coffee. “Beardsley Blend is more than a coffee, it’s a way to bring people together around something meaningful.” Taste the flavor of Sound Coffee and plan your next visit to the zoo, click here for tickets https://www.beardsleyzoo.org/ .

Experience the music of ‘70s duo Seals & Crofts—reimagined for a new era. Seals & Crofts 2 features Lua Crofts (daughter of Dash Crofts) and Brady Seals (cousin of Jim Seals). Together, they reimagine beloved hits like “Summer Breeze,” “Diamond Girl,” and “We May Never Pass This Way (Again),” while introducing original songs of their own. Their legacy harmony—rooted in family and steeped in ‘70s melody—resonates with warmth and nostalgia, in a show that honors the past while sounding right at home today. Lua Crofts grew up immersed in the music of Seals & Crofts, surrounded by the sound and influence of her father Dash. She found her voice early in the studio and went on to become an in-demand session singer in L.A.’s competitive music scene. With a warm, expressive tone and effortless phrasing, Lua brings both heart and finesse to the group’s signature sound—adding a fresh, modern edge while staying true to its origins. Brady Seals, best known for his work with the Grammy-nominated band Little Texas , has sold over 11 million albums and co-written three chart-topping country hits. Raised in a family of celebrated musicians, he blends country roots with a classic ‘70s sensibility. On stage, he brings seasoned vocals, vibrant musicianship, and a clear passion for the songs. A must-see for fans of classic '70s music and great live vocals, Seals & Crofts 2 delivers standout harmonies, timeless melodies, and a fresh take on the beloved songs of the era.
