Third Stone – a group that always gets listeners up on
their feet -- will kick off the annual Emil Paolucci Summer Sounds Concert Series at Hudson Park on
Wednesday, July 9th at 7:30
pm. Known for its powerful horn section, Third Stone is a cover band playing a
mix of blues, soul, classic rock and funk.
The Summer Sounds concert
series, which features an eclectic menu of free music on eight consecutive
Wednesdays in July and August, is presented by the New Rochelle Council on the
Arts, in partnership with the New Rochelle Dept. of Parks and Recreation, and sponsored
by Webster Bank. Additional
support is being provided by Metro Med, which is helping to underwrite the
August 6th concert by New Rochelle Opera. For more information visit

or telephone the Dept. of Parks and Recreation at 654-2087.
Bill Zimmerman, Commissioner of New
Rochelle’s Dept. of Parks & Recreation, says the city is proud to continue
the summer concert tradition. “The
support of Webster Bank has
made it possible for us to continue to bring free concerts to the community.”
Judith Weber, President of the New Rochelle Council on the Arts, adds “Webster
Bank continues to be a generous supporter of the arts with a true commitment to
the community they serve.”
