ALBION – Highway 31 had Bullard Park rocking on last Wednesday evening during the Village of Albion’s summer concert series.
The series started on June 4 and included 15 different musical groups. The series closes on Wednesday with the Sky Cats. They were originally scheduled for Aug. 6 but some stormy weather cancelled that concert.
Highway 31 performed on the amphitheater, and played ’90s music, contemporary country and some rock.
The band members include Rich Nolan of Gasport as lead singer, and the guitar trio of Aaron Clark of Holley, Clinton LaPorte of Le Roy, and Clinton’s dad Tim LaPorte Sr. of Batavia. Timmy LaPorte of Elba, Tim’s son and Clinton’s brother, is the drummer for the band.
About 400 people attended the concert with the majority bringing their own lawn chairs. Several food vendors also have been at the concerts.
