[The following was submitted by Mayor Bettencourt's office.]

Mayor Edward A. Bettencourt, Jr., is pleased to announce the fifth concert of the Annual Summer Concert Series. It will take place on Sunday, Aug. 19 from 6-8 p.m. and will feature one of our favorite groups, North Shore Acappella.

North Shore Acappella recently appeared on NBC’s “The Sing Off” and represented Massachusetts admirably and we are very happy to have them performing for us again. For the last 27 years, North Shore Acappella has entertained and excited thousands of listeners throughout the Boston area, adding an experienced blend of harmony, rhythm and tempo to songs from the 40s right up through today. This special art of delivering music without instrumental accompaniment is what North Shore Acappella is all about.

The award-winning group offers a continuously fresh repertoire of hundreds of popular hits that cover the last five decades.

Our last concert of the summer is:

• Sunday, Aug. 26, Classic Trax, 6-8 p.m.

Mayor Bettencourt is thrilled to announce there will be a very special “treat” for everyone in attendance at the last concert so be sure to join us!

All concerts are held on the , Lowell Street, downtown Peabody. In case of rain, concerts will move to Peabody City Hall’s Wiggin Auditorium. Admission is free and these concerts are open to the public. For more information please contact the Mayor’s office at 978-538-5704.
