One of the best things about summer is relaxing outside and enjoying live music. Our annual Summer Concert Series is here to help. Join us on Sunday, July 24 at 7pm for this week’s free concert with a return visit from a Summer Concert Series favorite, Betty Bangs.
A little bit country, a little bit rock n roll, a little bit martian-blasting space cowboys. This describes the eclectic sounds of Betty Bangs, a Summer Concert Series staple. Betty Bangs was born when singer, Abby Musick and guitarist, John Estep first strummed through Johnny Cash’s classic “Jackson” as a duo playing in small bars and clubs in 2018, Having since expanded into a larger ensemble featuring saxophone (Cliff Marsh), bass (Jacob Maynard), and drums/percussion (Ross Musick), the band has quickly become a crowd favorite across Ohio. Whether they’re belting out a Dolly Parton classic or one of the many Betty Bangs originals, there’s no mistaking the talent and passion that each member brings to their music.
Here is a sample of their sound:
These concerts are made possible in part due to a Tourism Attraction Grant from Destination Hilliard and generous gifts from Coffee Connections and the Rotary Club of Hilliard.
Don’t forget that the Hilliard DORA is in effect, so feel free to bring food and adult beverages from participating Hilliard bars and restaurants.
In the event of inclement weather, the concerts will be held inside the HCCAC so please come down to Old Hilliard rain or shine.
