SHERBURNE – The Sherburne Rotary has been sponsoring an annual summer Music in the Park Series since 1989, and in their 19th year, Sherburne residents can expect great music, great food and a good time.

This summer’s concert season will feature some familiar favorites, some new great acts and a lot of local talent. The series will kick off on Wednesday, July 9 with The Sons of Ireland. The Sons of Ireland is a local band that performs traditional Irish music. It has been several years since the band performed as part of the summer concert series. Their music will be accompanied by an Irish dance number performed by the Claddagh Ring Dancers.

The next weekly performance will be held on July 16. The band First Class will return to the concert stage. First Class performed as part of the concert series last year, and according to the Sherburne Rotary, the response was tremendous. “Everyone raved about the variety and fine sounds coming from this group,” a Rotary member said. The Norwich-based group will perform an array of classics from many eras.

On July 23, Skyline featuring Cassidy Lynn will perform an array of modern and classic country music. Cassidy Lynn has performed many times at Sherburne Fourth of July celebrations and other events around the area, but this will be her first performance at Music in the Park.
