Postponed: Summer Concert: BUS13


Postponed: Summer Concert: BUS13


DUE TO BAD WEATHER, THE CONCERT HAS BEEN POSTPONED TO TUESDAY, JULY 16TH



Come out for a free summer concert on the green Thursday evening, July 11th July 16th from 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm: BUS13

BUS13 is well known for their heartland-rock and alternative-country style. Singer/songwriter Todd Daniels found his musical inspiration from Jeff Tweedy of WILCO, Ryan Adams, Tom Petty, John Prine, and Neil Young. The band has thrived on their original indie roots and has released three studio albums including, “Reflector”, “Band Radio”, and “Underground Parties and Other Fabulous Shoes”.

BUS13 earned national acclaim on SiriusXM radio for their first album “Reflector” with the song “My Green Bike”, a feel-great tune about Daniels’ childhood modified chopper bicycle. The song famously begins with Daniels singing “I’m feeling great today” and the listener is taken along for the uplifting ride. SiriusXM DJ, Billy Zero of the RADAR REPORT, touted BUS13 as one of the “Most Notable Unsigned Artists in the US”. Expect an engaging show and a lot of good Americana fun.

Come out for dinner at one of our local Windsor restaurants and then enjoy a concert on the green now through August 22nd! Summer Concerts are a location in the e-Passport contest, too! You have till August 31st to finish your Passport!

Sponsored by WILA and Kiwanis
