Summer seems far away, but it’s never too early to get your cowboy hat and dancing shoes ready.
The City of Woodstock released the lineup for its 20th summer concert series in a Facebook post Tuesday. And there's everything from country to funk.
“We wanted a band line-up that was diverse, so that there was something for everyone,” Woodstock City Manager Jeff Moon said in the post.
The free concerts will be at Northside Hospital-Cherokee Amphitheater in downtown Woodstock and start at 7:30 p.m.
The post said city officials are working on getting a shuttle for off-site parking but information on that wouldn’t come until after the new year.
Oh, and did you want to know which bands were coming? Here you go.
