"Music On The Street" Will Try, Try Again This Thursday In Newtown

NEWTOWN BOROUGH, PA - After three cancellations due to the weather and a power issue, the Opus Outreach Foundation will try, try again to open its "Music On The Street" summer concert series on Thursday in Newtown Borough.

The free concerts are scheduled every Thursday from 6 to 7:30 p.m. through September 3 - weather permitting - in front of the Opus Elite Real Estate Office at 16 South State Street.

The public is invited to enjoy live music, support local talent, and spend an evening with friends, family, and neighbors in the heart of Newtown.

Scheduled to perform this Thursday is rock musician and acoustic artist Anthony Wexler from Philadelphia, renowned for his mesmerizing style, which combines the gritty energy of rock with the memorable hooks of pop.

Wexler has distinguished himself in the pop rock genre with his avant-garde musical style, entertaining audiences with his passionate performances and eloquent lyrics. His repertoire ranges from ecstatic rock ballads to bouncy-pop-infused songs.

Wexler's appearance is being sponsored by Philly Joe Tattoos and Cosmetics.

The series continues with Brian Ulrich on August 6, John Thomas on August 13, School of Rock Newtown on August 20, Aim X Dam on August 27 and Meg Russell on September 3.

While the concert is free and open to the public due to the support of local sponsors, donations will be accepted by the Opus Outreach Foundation, which gives back to local families going through adverse situations.

"Bring chairs. Bring blankets. Bring some drinks (non-alcoholic). You can line up on both sides of the street," said Mark Gatta of Opus Elite. "The office will be open for anyone to use the restrooms or to cool down on the hot days. You can also grab some water and some snacks inside. And if they want to buy a glass of lemonade, that will benefit the foundation as well."
