Blue Monday Concerts return to Mystic River Park for three free concerts beginning Monday July 3 6:00 PM to 8:00PM, rain or shine (rain location Mystic German Club). The concert series is a fundraiser for the Stonington Education Fund and the Pawcatuck Neighborhood Center. This year’s performers are Ward Hayden and the Outliers on July 3rd playing country and Western with a rock ‘n roll kick. Veronica Lewis performs on July 10th and combines the true language of the Blues with the energy of early rock ‘n rollers. Sugar Ray and the Bluetones perform on July 17th and deliver the best blues and jazz on the planet. Stonington High School alumna and current Berklee College of Music student Maggie Welch performs during intermission on July 17th . This will be the 18 th year for the series. In 2022 the free concerts raised $12,700 from concert sponsorships and individual donations. The funds were split between the Pawcatuck Neighborhood Center (food bank) and the Stonington Education Fund to support music programs in Stonington’s public schools. Please bring a jar of peanut butter (or other canned goods) for the Pawcatuck Neighborhood Center’s food bank. Monday evenings in the Mystic River Park, once again the place to picnic and enjoy great live music (family friendly, no alcohol). Follow us on Facebook at Blue Monday.
