It\u2019s been almost two years since the last free Thursday concert of the NBT Bank <\/a>Summer Concert Series was held at East Park in Norwich, but the long wait has come to an end. On Thursday, July 15th Asleep at the Wheel will throw the door open on what promises to be the best free summer concert series anywhere in upstate New York. With COVID-19, restrictions eased everyone can come to enjoy world-class musicians every Thursday until August 26th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Norwich<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

All the shows start at 7:00 P.M. The shows are rain or shine, so come prepared to enjoy yourself no matter the weather. If conditions make it unsafe for the artists to perform we will post an announcement on social media by noon on the day of the show about an alternate location. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every week will be a summer highlight with the likes of Texas swing legends Asleep at the Wheel, New Orleans jazz ensemble Tuba Skinny and Blues Music Award Artist of the Year winner Shemekia Copeland among those on the bill. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The return of the popular concerts means the return of the equally popular vendors who sell food at the shows. Ray Brothers BBQ, Hubcaps Munchies, Nina\u2019s Pizza, and Gilligan\u2019s Ice Cream will all be on-site so come down early and make it a great summer\u2019s evening. If you need a beverage or some table service food Park Place restaurant will have its popular beer garden open again this year also.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
