The Bobby BlackHat Band performs Friday, June 3, on the gazebo stage in downtown Smithfield.

The music begins at 8 p.m. and the concert is free. Bring a chair or blanket for added comfort.

Members of the Smithfield High School band plan to organize a “street corner” concert earlier in the evening.

The Bobby BlackHat Band is led by Bobby Walters, an award-winning blues recording artist, vocalist, harmonica player and songwriter.

This is the Summer Concert Series’ 30^th season. Sponsored by The Smithfield Times and the Isle of Wight Arts League, the event provides free entertainment each Friday from Memorial Day to Labor Day.
