The Town of Essex Arts, Culture & Tourism Committee is looking for local talent to perform in this year’s Tune Up the Parks Concert Series.

After a switch to online concerts last year, the committee is planning in-person performances for the series, which is heading into its seventh year.

Since its launch, the series has featured local artist and bands sharing their musical talents every week. In 2020, the park performances went digital with live Facebook and YouTube streams.
This year, performances are tentatively scheduled to run from July to September, with backup arrangements in place if public health restrictions do not allow for gatherings.

“Certainly, our committee is optimistic that these open air concerts can be a first step towards normalcy for our community and the performers,” said Tony Paniccia, Chair of the Arts, Culture and Tourism Committee. “As always, we’ll follow the current restrictions to keep people safe and we’re prepared make the switch back to online performances if needed.”

Local performers who would like to be added to the series lineup can email [email protected] or fill out the online form.
