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.

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.”
