Doylestown-Based Blues Band Continues Summer Central Park Concerts

DOYLESTOWN TOWNSHIP, PA — Doylestown-based Little Red Rooster will take the stage on Wednesday, July 31 with its own brand of blues at the C&N Amphitheater in Central Park. The free performance begins at 7 p.m.

Since their formation in 1988, they have become one of the Delaware Valley’s premier blues bands, consistently delivering their own brand of blues, always combined with a crowd-pleasing, high- energy performance and a whole lot of fun.

The band has built a community of friends and fans of the blues, one that cannot be matched. They have performed at clubs and festivals throughout the United States, and have toured Europe on multiple occasions, averaging between 150 and 170 performances per year. To date, they have released 7 CDs of original material, all of which were widely acclaimed by critics and fans alike.

The 2024 Thompson Performing Arts Series continues in July and August with the following bands:

• August 7, Lights Out (Frankie Valli Tribute)
• August 14 River of Dreams (Billy Joel Tribute)
• August 21 Bell Bottom Blues (Eric Clapton Tribute)
• August 28 Class Act (dance band featuring local teachers)

Throughout the series, a beer garden featuring Warwick Farm Brewing will be available beginning at 6 p.m. Patrons must be 21-years-of-age to purchase beer. Any purchases must be consumed in the amphitheater.

Food trucks will also be on location including Jack & Jill, Kona Ice, Kono Pizza, Rooster & The Chick, and Salty Vets.

Parking at Central Park

Parking has been significantly reduced this year due to the park improvement construction project. When coming into Central Park at the main Wells Road entrance (one-way road) parking is available in the lots adjacent to the amphitheater and near the exit of the park. Additional
parking is available at the New Britain Road entrance to Central Park with trail connections throughout the park and to park amenities.

Parking will be limited and likely to fill quickly. An early arrival and carpooling is recommended when possible. Township staff will be on hand to assist as best as possible until parking is full. Parking at Kutz Elementary School will not be available until the June 19 concert.
