Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell made an appearance at Pier 62 to kick off the revitalized waterfront concert series, but not before taking the stage to rally the attendees around his overarching "One Seattle" goal, a sign that campaigning for the upcoming mayoral race is already underway.

"Spiritual, rhythmic, infinite, peaceful. You're in for a treat. My wife and I are going to enjoy it with you," Harrell said Monday night along Pier 62 before pivoting to politics. "One Seattle! We're all here together to fight for the city. Fight against Trump. Fight for diversity. Fight for inclusion. Fight for LGBTQ+. Our values. We will fight, fight, fight. But tonight, we're going to listen and come together as one. One Seattle!"
