Summer Concerts on the Square: ROB FLAX'S BOOM CHICK TRIO
Summer Concerts on the Square
Enjoy free, live music in Downtown Storrs, all summer long! The Mansfield Downtown Partnership will host free concerts on Betsy Paterson Square every Thursday in June, July and August. The concerts place from 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM and are free and open to all ages to attend.
Thursday, June 11: Rob Flax's Boom Chick Trio
Rooted in equal parts hot swing, snarky songwriting, and lyrical storytelling, this energetic trio of virtuoso violin, guitar, and bass plus three part harmony vocals will transport you to a speakeasy somewhere in the back of a bar. You might not be able to sit still in your seat, and you’ll probably have a smile on your face most of the show!
Rob Flax's Boom Chick Trio is Rob Flax (an award-winning multi-instrumentalist, composer, and educator with a playful heart and an open mind), Slava Tolstoy (a Boston based guitarist, singer and producer, originally from St. Petersburg Russia), and Felix Sartori (a bassist, percussionist, and multi-instrumentalist currently based out of Boston).
