Music at the Mill- The first band

This information was sent out by Scott Stern, the publicist for the Nick Carver Band and I thought you might like to know who will be playing.
NICK CARVER BAND TO KICK OFF SMYRNA “MUSIC AT THE MILL”

SMYRNA, TENN. – Murfreesboro’s Nick Carver Band will kick off the opening concert of Smyrna’s new summer concert series, “Music at the Mill,” on Friday, May 21 at 6:30 PM in Gregory Hill Park. This open-air concert is free and open to the public. Gregory Hill Park is located at 390 Enon Springs Road, Smyrna, Tenn. 37167, and food vendors will be onsite. The “Music at the Mill” concert series is produced by the Smyrna Parks and Recreation Department, and sponsored by the Smyrna Independent Merchants Association.

In a little over one year’s time, the Nick Carver Band has become one of the most popular cover bands in Middle Tennessee, performing Classic Rock, Southern Rock, and Country Music favorites while also serving up a dose of original music. Fronted by lead singer Nick Carver, the band has performed at Nashville musical landmarks such as Tootsie’s Orchid Lounge, the Wildhorse Saloon, and Cadillac Ranch; as well as clubs in Murfreesboro, Franklin, Lebanon, Manchester, Shelbyville, and more.

“With their musical talent and energetic performance-style, the Nick Carver Band is a perfect choice to launch our new ‘Music at the Mill’ summer concert series” said Jeff Marler, Athletic Coordinator, Town of Smyrna Parks and Recreation.

“We are excited to make our Smyrna debut by opening the ‘Music at the Mill” free concert series,” said Carver. “We hope everyone will bring their friends and family out to Gregory Hill Park for an evening of music, dancing, and celebration.”

In addition to Carver, the Nick Carver Band is comprised of drummer Mark Cardwell, bass guitarist Taylor Lonardo, fiddler Rob Mineo, keyboardist Michael Sharp, and lead guitarist Jason Tyler.

This sounds like a lot of fun. I've seen the Nick Carver Band play in Murfreesboro, and they are great. Definitely bringing the family out to see this, and I'm gonna invite some friends as well. Love having a free concert in town!!

I agree. I've seen them perform in at River Stone Saloon and loved them. Great music and wide variety of songs. This will be a great time.
