Squeezebox Stompers Tonight On Town Common

The following is an announcement from the Lynnfield Summer Concerts Committee:

The Squeezebox Stompers make their debut at the Lynnfield Library Concerts on the Common series this Wednesday July 25 from 6-8 p.m. (rain date Thursday).  This band perfectly captures the sounds of  New Orleans with a unique blend of cajun, zydeco, celtic, jazz and blues music.

As veteran performers for more than 25 years, this 5 piece band creates a rockin’ atmosphere with their mix of accordion, guitar, fiddle, mandolin, bass and drums.   Performing Delta blues, swamp ballads, Cajun waltzes, hoe-downs, two-steps and some original tunes they bring Bourbon Street to life here in New England.  Various members have distinguished themselves by receiving local music awards.

The Squeezebox Stompers is sponsored by Eastern Bank.  The Lynnfield High School Band Boosters will run the fundraising refreshment table selling Kayem hot dogs, snacks and drinks.  The free children’s activities include a crafts table featuring make your own frames, with facial sketching by Andrew Hamm, as well as hula hoops, chalk, jump ropes, balls and more.  Organized games such as suction ball toss, ring toss and potato sack races will be run during intermission.

Raffle tickets will be sold at all concerts to encourage donations.  Proceeds will be used to defray costs and enhance the Lynnfield Summer Concerts experience as well as to sponsor library music programs.  This week’s raffle prizes have been donated by: Elizabeth Grady, HockeyTown USA, Outback Restaurant, Baubles Jewelry,Whole Foods and Hannaford.  All donations are very much appreciated so please give generously.
