Yes, it’s sad but true.
Summertime has come … and gone … for another year.
But now ain’t the time for your tears. Outdoor music in Nippertown doesn’t just shut down after Labor Day. In fact, there’s still quite a cornucopia of festivals coming our way for the autumn season.
Here’s a quick look at some of the highlights of what’s coming up in the next couple of weeks on the fall festival circuit:
You’ll find Dutchman’s Landing Park on Main Street near the river in Catskill. In the park, you’ll find a gazebo. And every Thursday at 7pm, the gazebo fills up with a band, and the park fills up with music – and music-lovers, too.
Here’s the schedule for the free outdoor concert series:
July 23: Lex Grey & the Urban Pioneers
July 30: Johnny Moon & Starz
August 6: Ali Jean & the Struts
August 13: The Saints of Swing
August 20: HotRod
August 27: Thunder Ridge
