Cape May- Lewes Ferry announces free community concerts
Cape May- Lewes Ferry officials have announced that free concerts will be held this summer on the lawn next to the terminal building. Officials say they decided to bring back the event after such a big turnout during the summer of 2015.
Nikky Fisher, Lewes Terminal Manager, talk about her excitement for this event saying, “The concerts were such a hit last year that we had to bring them back. Our family-friendly memorable nights of music and fun are definitely a break from the ordinary and – best of all – they’re free!”
Terminal officials say that food and beverages will be available for purchase at the Ferry’s outdoor bar and grill, On the Rocks, or inside the Lewes passenger terminal. Officials remind visitors though that carry-on alcoholic beverages will not be allowed on the property.
Fisher also wants to remind visitors that they should bring their own lawn chair or beach blanket in order to be comfortable on the green.
Below is the schedule of performers:
July 14: Mike Hines & The Look
Mike Hines and The Look is a high energy dance band that has developed a following from several generations and always know how to get the party going. They play R&B, hip hop, pop, old school funk and have a small part of Motown and disco. The group of six likes to get the crowds involved and always creates a huge dance party no one wants to leave
July 28: Jesse Garron’s Tribute to Elvis
This group of seven helps fill the void for those who have never seen Elvis live. The name comes from Elvis’ twin brother who died at birth and they pay tribute to the great American Icon. The once one-man show, consisting of only Jesse Garron, turned into a group effort with authentic costumes and venues that put you right back into the Elvis era of music. This Vegas-style performance is a fan favorite and will be sure to make you think Elvis is back in the building.

They’re guaranteed to light up your day with their infectious sound.
August 25: The Funsters
This ten member band has been performing together for over 20 years. They’ve not just been band members, but have been friends long before performing together. You can hear a variety of music from Frank Sinatra to The Beatles played on various instruments from horns and trumpet to keys.
