The Fabulous Greaseband to perform concert.

- Borough of Kutztown

This Saturday evening, July 30, from 7 to 9 p.m., the Borough of Kutztown’s “2016 Concert Series in the Park” continues with the performanc­e of The Fabulous Greaseband. The oldies band is a seven-member group singing and playing the best of the rock and roll oldies spanning the period of 1950 through the 1990s.

In their 40 years of existence, they continue to thrill crowds throughout the east coast with their sounds and show. The stage will come alive with the sounds of the memorable Doo Wop groups and Oldies bands of the era. They will entertain with many well known favorite songs of the era as well as some one-hit wonders. Artists such as Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, The Beach Boys, Roy Orbison, The Righteous Brothers, Chuck Berry, Chubby Checker, The Platters, Elvis Pressley and many other household names will be heard on stage in the Kutztown Park Bandshell.

The band has become popular as they bring their style and entertainm­ent reminiscen­t of the great tribute bands, dancing and singing to some of the most popular and memorable hits and classics. If you like the sounds of the Oldies, then this is an event you have to see.

Saturday will start off with the Kutztown Community Partnershi­p sponsoring of “Kutztown Kruizz” on Main Street from noon to 5 p.m., followed by the concert with The Fabulous Greaseband, and then a movie under the stars in the Kutztown Park at 9 p.m. So, plan to make a day of it in Kutztown, and come for the car show in the afternoon, make your way to the Kutztown park for the concert and plan to stroll down the hill for the movie afterward.

The concert is free to the public and is part of the Borough of Kutztown’s “2016 Concert Series in the Park,” and it will be held rain or shine in the covered vintage Kutztown Park Bandshell.
