Free Concert in the Park Thursday

Just a reminder about this week's Sundown Concert:

The May Sundown Concert Series at Town Creek Park continues on Thursday, May 13 at 6 p.m. with a performance by MUSE.  Join the City of Auburn Parks and Recreation Department every Thursday in May for live musical performances at Auburn’s newest park, located on South Gay Street. Citizens are encouraged to bring a blanket, chairs, and picnic and enjoy an evening of FREE musical entertainment. Additional parking for the concert is available at Wrights Mill Road Elementary School.

MUSE is an Auburn-based, three-person vocal/acoustic group that has been performing throughout the Southeast for 32 years.  The group has performed at events such as City Stages in Birmingham, Downtown Jam in Columbus, GA, and the SEC Basketball Tournament in New Orleans.  With two albums and one CD of original music to their credit, MUSE's unique style has evolved through careful attention to and particular emphasis on creative vocal harmonies.  With a repertoire of over 100 songs, the group boasts a number of original songs, as well as music by artists such as Van Morrison, Eric Clapton, Crosby, Stills and Nash, The Eagles, The Beatles, James Taylor, Jimmy Buffet, and Paul Simon.  Group members include Tom Harper on acoustic guitar and vocals; George Konstant on acoustic and electric guitars, mandolin, harmonica, and vocals; and Larry Shaw on electric bass and vocals.  Both Harper and Konstant are two of the group's original members.
