North Haven’s 2010 Music Under the Stars free concert series will commence Tuesday, June 29, with event regular and oldies singer Vinnie Carr and the Party Band.

According to his website, Carr formed his first band at age 19 while in the United States Army. He has performed with numerous groups over the years, including the Crest, Danny and the Juniors, the Impalas, the Five Satins, Joey Dee and the Starlighters, the Drifters, the Classics, Kenny Vance and the Planotones, the Mytics, and the Passions.

Carr has also appeared with Frank Sinatra Jr., Jack Carter, Pat Cooper and Brian Dennehy. His set will include music from the ‘40s, ‘50s and ‘60s, as well as contemporary favorites.

Having performed in every Music Under the Stars since the event’s beginnings in the 1970s, Carr’s family-oriented music and dance show is a North Haven mainstay.

Music Under the Stars is presented by the Department of Community Services, in conjunction with the North Haven business community. All concerts will be held on Tuesdays at 7 p.m. on the Town Green unless noted otherwise.

Parking is available at the Town Hall Annex and Town Pool lots.

Attendees should assume all concerts are on the Green regardless of weather. Those concerned about the weather can contact the Recreational Center info-line at 203-234-2535 after 5 p.m. If the recording under “Special Events/Trips” says that there are no cancellations or changes, then the concert can be assumed to be on the Green.

The info-line will provide information if the concert is moved to North Haven High School. There is limited seating at the school, which will be filled on a first come, first served basis. Food and beverages (including water) will not be allowed in the school.
