The Stratham Recreation Commission is delighted to announce an exciting lineup of bands. Now more than ever, families are searching their communities for low-cost, wholesome and fun family entertainment. It’s easy to overlook that such opportunities are often found in our own neighborhoods. Wednesdays through August 18. (See schedule below)

The Stratham Hill Park concerts are open to the public. So, grab your blankets, lawn chairs, picnic baskets and dancing shoes, and join us for another fun, casual season of live music at Stratham Hill Park. Donations are encouraged. A food concession will be available at the park. Mark your calendars today!

The Stratham Concerts offer the perfect, carefree venue for exposing people and families of all ages to eclectic blends of music, particularly with the six slated performances. "The Town of Stratham is thrilled to offer our spacious park to the seacoast community for our annual Summer Concert Series" said Tara Barker, Stratham Parks and Recreation Director.

Wednesday July 7 at 6:00 p.m. - Half Moon Jug Band is back! Their music is not simply bluegrass or folk; it’s homemade music. This musical pack plays guitars, banjos, mandolins, kazoos, trumpets, harmonicas and thumping drums. The Portland Press Herald reports, "This is some seriously fun, toe-tapping, frantically paced music."

Wednesday July 14 at 6:00 p.m. – Truffle, with five albums behind them, are a "five piece, electrified, rootsy funk machine that morphs and adapts to any room and every audience." The Vermont Review notes: "These guys have played with many of the hottest acts touring today, seeing most of the acts mare than five times, I can honestly say that an evening with Truffle sounds as good as any of the rest."

Wednesday, August 4, 6:00 p.m. – The BaHa Brothers are calling all parrot heads! Come relax with this nationally known Key West inspired band as they bring us to the beaches with their ballads.
