The Downtown Music Series kicks off on Friday, July 8 with Hang Tight at Berkeley Green Park! Join us from 6-8pm. Our live concerts this summer are completely free to the public!
Hang Tight is a band from Plattsburgh, New York, consisting of musicians that have been playing together for over 25 years. Their repertoire runs the gamut from Paul Simon to CCR; from Van Morrison to Joe Cocker; from Blues to Jazz to Rock & Roll. This show will focus on their more up-tempo tunes.
Hang Tight features:
- Jay Lesage - a full-time, professional musician who trained at The Berklee Shool of Music in Boston and at SUNY Plattsburgh.
- Jeff Rendinaro - a world class harmonica player who has played as a guest at the Montreal Jazz Festival among many other festivals and venues.
- Dale Derusha - a sought-after bass player who has been in numerous bands over the past five decades.
- Russ Hartung - a drummer who, over his 50-plus years of drumming, has played on albums for The Only Motions - recorded in Portland Maine; and for Pure Blue - recorded in Montreal.
This is a show that’ll put a smile on your face and is a perfect way to kick off your weekend. Stop by and dance for a while—or just sit back, soak up the mountain air, and tap your feet.
Join us after Hang Tight's performance in the Great Hall Bar from 8-10pm for the Stinky Boots String Band!
