Hit the Bus is kicking off Southborough’s Summer Concert Series this week. The popular local band will play on Wednesday, July 10th from 6:00 – 8:00 pm.
The concerts put on by Southborough Recreation will take place on the outdoor stage and field at Neary School, 53 Parkerville Road.
Concert goers are encouraged to bring blankets or chairs and enjoy a picnic. While you can bring your own food, you can also buy dinner from a food truck. The first concert will feature the Wicked Tasty truck. (You can check out their menu here and pics of some of their offerings here.)
For those of you not familiar with the popular local band, members describe their genre as an “eclectic mix of music ranging from the 50’s to Today.” In 2019, the Town promoted the band as blending “rock, acoustic melodies, and electronic to create a unique sound”.
Last year, lead singer David Garden posted a video clip of the band performing “Imagine” at Southborough Summer Nights:
And eight years ago, Southborough Access Media posted a video of the band’s full performance in the 2015 Summer Concert series:
