WHAT’S HAPPENING IN OCEAN CITY
Ocean City and producers BRE Presents and Bob Rose Productions will celebrate the 30th anniversary of the popular Summer Concert Series at the Ocean City Music Pier this year, and three shows were announced on Monday.
Songwriter Aimee Mann, a Beatles tribute band called The Fab Four, and local rock legend George Thorogood are the first shows planned in what promises to be an exceptional anniversary season.
Grammy-nominated artist Aimee Mann has released 12 solo albums since the group ‘Til Tuesday disbanded in the early 1990s. The California-based Fab Four have shared the sound of the Beatles on worldwide tours over the course of the past 25 years. George Thorogood and the Destroyers have rocked the region for decades with a high-energy bluesy show and hits like “Bad to the Bone” and “I Drink Alone.”
Tickets for all three shows go on sale through Ticketmaster on Thursday, Feb. 2. A limited number of tickets for the shows will be available through the Music Pier Box Office later in the spring.
The Summer Concert Series features a lineup of rock and popular music concerts typically on Monday nights at the Ocean City Music Pier. Look for new show announcements in the coming week.
