Concerts on the Common

07/09/2025

We are going to be on the Common for this evening's concert with the Bruce Marshall Group! The forecasts indicate it is unlikely, but we may have a brief sprinkle during the show. Still, better than being in the LHS cafeteria! And the band will make it worthwhile - they are fantastic!

These musicians are fantastic! Watch their videos on YouTube and you'll see that Cool Cool Cool has a ton of energy in their music and an unforgettable live show!

The Londonderry Times has graciously published our concert schedule TWICE in the last two weeks. Here it is on page 7 of last week's paper. Just right to cut out and put on the refrigerator! 😃 And, yes, those wonderful photos that Chris Paul took are from the fabulous Couch concert on June 11! Thank you very much to Chris and the Londonderry Times. In addition, we have two new sponsors to announce - the Rotary Club of Londonderry ("Service Above Self") is a Platinum sponsor, and Alliance Landscaping (Local Experts for over 25 years in fertilization and irrigation) is a Gold sponsor! Thank you so much to all of our incredible sponsors - it is only through their community support that we are able to hold twelve free concerts this summer!

YES! We will be ON THE COMMON for tonight's concert with the fabulous Linda Ronstadt Experience! The weather elves that whisper in our ear tell us that we won't have any rain this evening - yay! 🥳 Honestly, these are the types of "weather days" that drive us a bit kooky, trying to make the "the concert will be outdoors or indoors" call. We have a LOT of experience in making this difficult call, and I can unequivocally say that experience doesn't matter, haha! 😟 See you tonight on the Londonderry Town Common (265 Mammoth Rd), Wednesday, June 18 7:00 - 8:30.

Two years ago we hosted an incredible performer - Tristan McIntosh. She fronts a great band and they showcase Linda Ronstadt songs. Now, you probably think, that is one HARD voice to match, and of course you would be correct. But Tristan has a beautiful and powerful voice, just like Linda. That is why they are the premier touring tribute band showcasing the songs that Linda Ronstadt made famous. The show takes you on a musical journey of smash hit songs, including “You’re No Good,” “When Will I Be Loved,” “That’ll Be the Day,” and a particularly delicate, nuanced interpretation of “Blue Bayou,” among many more. Close your eyes and you would swear it was the "real thing"! It is our pleasure to welcome Tristan and band back to Londonderry for this week's concert!

Wednesday, June 18 7:00 - 8:30. Bring a lawn chair or blanket. Please give yourself plenty of time to get to the Londonderry Town Common (265 Mammoth Rd) and park.
