Mercer County Summer Concert Series bring big talents

As the summer continues to sizzle, the Mercer County Park Commission is also bringing top talents to Mercer County Park Festival Grounds.

Don’t miss great shows from well-known artists such as the upcoming performers Sat., July 27.

Information from the Mercer County Administration states that  “If you watched Sean “Diddy” Combs’ MTV show Making the Band, you probably remember seeing five hugely talented young men who became Day26, named for the day (Aug. 26) (when) they were selected by Combs.”

These Hip Hop artists, Day26, and model musician Sammy Cokas, who writes his own music, will perform at the Festival Grounds Saturday from 6 to 10 p.m.

The Administration states that, Day 26’s first album hit the Billboard 200 as #1 and became the biggest selling debut album from a male R&B group on SoundScan.  Their hits were Got Me Going and Since You Been Gone.

They celebrate their 10-year anniversary with their A New Day album.

Other musicians at the Festival Ground this summer will include Jazz musicians, Country musicians, and even a Woodstock Tribute.

For the return of Mercer County Jazz Festival on Sat. Aug. 3, the well-known musician Jeff Bradshaw will headline the event.

Mercer County has announced that Bradshaw is a Philadelphia based soul-jazz and hip-hop innovator who joined the Park Commission at the Jazz Festival in 2018 concert series and will return this summer.

Opening support for Jeff Bradshaw will be Destinee Maree, and R&B Soul/Pop singer, Algebra Blessett and Frank McComb.

Tickets for the events are available through Community Pass – $20. For more information, go to www.mercercountyparks.org
