The October 2024 Brown Bag Concert Series is RIGHT around the corner and we can't wait! Mark your calendar for each Wednesday in October for a midweek lunch hour to relax to the sounds of our area’s best established and emerging musicians on stage in Palace Park at 220 DeSiard Street (beside The Palace). Public parking is available on the street, as well as at 4th and DeSiard. Tell your friends and plan on enjoying some great tunes in good company. Bring a picnic of your favorites, or treat yourself to a $6 sack lunch on site from Newk’s. Mulhearn’s will again provide free cookies to make the events extra sweet! Picnic blankets and lawn chairs are encouraged! Of course, the performances are FREE, thanks to our gracious sponsors ECHO Development, First Horizon, Mulhearn’s, Newk’s, Paramount Healthcare Consultants of West Monroe, and City of Monroe.
Now... who's on stage?!
October 23: Mandolin State
We’ll swing into the fourth outing of the Series with a folksy, bluegrass jam. Mandolin State is a genre-bending folk band with a playlist ranging from progressive bluegrass to folk-rock. Founders Matt Morgan and Jeff Hicks formed the band after nearly two decades of musical collaborations -- you may have heard this duo at popular local venues such as Enoch's Irish Pub and Flying Tiger Brewery. Today they’ll treat us to their incredible talent and relaxed, easy stage presence.
In case of rain, we’ll move indoors to the old Palace Dept. store, next door to the park. For more information or to confirm the show will go on in case of rain, call the Arts Council office at 397.6717 or 397.6754.
