Windy River, 8/1/2019

Oldies, country, and classic rock – the songs you love to song along with performed by Franklin, PA’s own Windy River band. These good ol’ boys are always a hit when they play here in Corry, so be sure to come on out and enjoy their versions of familiar hit songs!

Kevin Downey and Friends, 7/11/2019

UPDATE: We will be INDOORS at our rain location tonight! Please join us at the Relevant Church at 100 W South St, Corry, PA 16407! Music begins at 7 PM!

On July 11th, regional vocalist Kevin Downey returns to Thursday in the Park’s concert series. We are happy to invite our old crooner friend Kevin back, along with some of his friends. He says in his Facebook biography: “I want people to remember me as a talented musician, an innovative artist and a friendly human being that always did my best. Also, that I truly had fun doing it, others benefiting from my choice of color, notation, etc. I want to show people how beautiful I see life as, in time (music) or in space (art). All of this done with the help of family, friends, and mentors I meet along the journey. But, ultimately, I did it, I’m doing it, & I will continue to do it all my own unique way.”

3 Bands, Live Music All Day, 7/4/2019

It’s time for a Thursday in the Park like no other! While there have been other posts discussing our plans for the Old Fashioned Fourth of July Festival, this independence day, even if you have no interest in any of the other activities going on, you can enjoy a full day of music at the park!

Beginning at 1PM, we’ll be featuring Bill Beggs and The Dixie Doodlers.
From Dixieland to American Jazz, the Dixie Doodlers break into a progressive jazz ensemble which demonstrates their flexibility and versatility, and they’ll be sure to set the stage for our Independence Day Celebration.

Then at 3PM, we welcome regional hit Kokomo Time Band! Specifically called out as many people’s favorite act of the year last year, they’ll bring surf rock styling to your ears along with many other golden oldies!

Finally at 6PM, last year’s best attended performer, Happy Days will be here again! Gabriele Ross Giuffre and his wife Mary are here to play the classic Rock’n’Roll that you know and love, and put a true showman’s touch to the whole experience!

This all day musical experience has been made possible with support from multiple granting organizations. We couldn’t have done it without their help!
