Summertime fun on tap at Ansonia concerts


ANSONIA - The Cultural Commission is sponsoring the city's annual Summer Concert Series starting in July with a line-up that is designed to appeal to all age groups, Commission Chairwoman Judy Nicolari said today. 

All concerts will start at 7 p.m. at Veterans Park next to City Hall on Main Street. Rain dates will be on the following nights. People should visit www.cityofansonia.com by 3 p.m. the day of the concert to check if it is postponed, Nicolari said.   

Concert goers are asked to bring their own lawn chairs, snacks, drinks, and of course their dancing shoes.

All  Funk'd Up, a Connecticut-based rhythm and blues band, will perform July 9.


The 102nd U.S. Army Band will perform July 23. "The band was a tremendous hit last summer so it is back by popular demand," Nicolari said. 

The August concert dates and performers are: Mark Lanzieri's Band, Aug. 6, The Bernadettes, Aug. 20 and Simply Swing, Aug. 27.
Nicolari said a surprise musician may perform at the last concert.

The concerts are being held in conjunction with the City's 125th Anniversary celebration.
