Ah, summertime. When I think of it, almost every time without fail, a certain Sublime song begins to play in my head – nevermind the underlying story. All I remember is “Summertime and the livin’s easy.” And easy living will surely have this fantastic summer we have coming up.

Unfortunately, I don’t have a lot of info on the bands. Most of them have played in this series before and they are generally very well liked.

Ira, most of these singers/bands have a web page some with sample music. I googled a few, try it. Personally I love Eric Lindell! They can have him back every year as far as I’m concerned!

Hey Linda,
So far as I know, there have never been any big name bands in this series. This is a free-to-the-public concert series and is generally super sweet!

Great bands! A few of them I recognize from over the years and have enjoyed. Love the summer concert series!

Lots of the same bands from years past, which is a bit disappointing. Who is responsible for bringing in these musicians? Oh well, at least they picked out a good band who performed last year in Seaside…go see The Black Lillies on June 14th…they put on an incredible show!

I’ve lived at PCB over 4 years now & The Kevin Jacobs Band & Heritage have become my two favorite bands! So, excited to have them at the free concert! Check them out!

What time do the concerts start? Where are they located within the park? Can you bring a chair and/or cooler?

I’m wondering about the outside cooler thing also. In previous years, that’s what you did. You brought your cooler, your chair, and most times we brought dinner. I’m hearing rumors that it will no longer be acceptable to bring your own food and beverages in. PLEASE tell me this is only a rumor! We have missed maybe 5 concerts in all of the years that they have put this thing on. It is the highlight of our summer and we all look forward to it every year. I don’t even want to think about a summer without the summer concert series!
