Concerts in the Park

A well-kept secret in the town of Lisbon over the past couple of summers has to be the Lisbon Concerts in the Park series. From the middle of July to the end of August, aspiring bands and musicians take the newly-constructed pavilion behind the Marion T. Morse (MTM) Center to perform some of their melodious creations. These concerts are FREE to the public and typically run from 5:30pm to 7:00pm. Refreshments are provided through various fundraisers and raffle prizes are also available.

There is one problem with this well-kept secret—it shouldn’t be a secret! The Lisbon Credit Union encourages everyone in the area to check out these concerts. Furthermore, we encourage you to invite other family members and friends to also participate. For your reference, here is the remaining list of performers during the 2011 series:
  • July 24 – Rick Graham performs local classic rock.
  • July 31 – Three Button Deluxe performs rock hits from the 40’s and 50’s. As a bonus, classic cars will be on display.
  • August 7 – The Wild Horse Band performs classic country and western.
  • August 14 – Bath Municipal Swing Band performs traditional swing.
  • August 21 – A Single Thread performs local acoustic alternative rock.
  • August 28 – Blues Buzzards with Brass Attack Horns performs rhythm and blues.
The Lisbon Concerts in the Park series is sponsored by the Lisbon Promotions Committee. For announcements and updates, please visit the Facebook page Lisbon Concerts in the Park.
