Senator Golden Announces 2012 Concert Series To Play In Our Local Parks This Summer
State Senator Martin J. Golden, in conjunction with the South West Brooklyn Parks Task Force, will host a series of concerts and events throughout July and August in local parks throughout Golden’s district.
“This summer, I am proud to host another great line up of concerts and invite music lovers and neighbors to be a part of these great evenings of music. It’s time to grab a beach chair, or a blanket, and head to our local parks on most Tuesday and Wednesday evenings,” said Golden. “The music of the 60’s, 70’s, 80’s, 90’s, dance, classic rock, and more will be sure to get you dancing under the stars. Frankie Marra, Carl Thomas, Sound Affair, Plastic Soul and more acts will make our local park[s] alive with the music that we have come to enjoy and love.”
