Come out and join us for a fun family evening !!!
This Friday, the Senior Helpers of East Central Indiana Free Summer Concert Series welcomes Mike Milligan and Steam Shovel to the Civic Green.
For more than three decades, Mike Milligan and Steam Shovel have been delivering a powerful blend of blues, soul, and rock, earning a reputation as one of Indiana's premier live acts. Fronted by acclaimed guitarist and vocalist Mike Milligan, whose playing often draws comparisons to some of the genre's greats, the band's sound combines soulful originals, blues-driven guitar work, and the kind of energy that keeps audiences engaged from the first song to the last.
The trio has shared stages with blues legends, performed at festivals and venues throughout the Midwest, and continues to be recognized for both outstanding musicianship and an authentic, road-tested sound.
The music begins at 7:30p, but the Friday night experience starts well before the first note.
Beginning at 6:00p, enjoy dinner and treats from Groovy Grill and Danielle's Popcorn, then settle in on the Civic Green as neighbors, friends, and visitors gather for another summer evening in downtown Yorktown.
A huge thank you to Senior Helpers of East Central Indiana for serving as the title sponsor of the series, along with PrimeTrust Federal Credit Union, Tyler Wealth Management, Mr. Mouse Bar and Grill, Trademark Title, Inc. -Muncie, With the Keys Realty, and Smith Street Studio for helping make another summer of free community concerts possible.
There is something special about a Friday night in Yorktown. Families spread out lawn chairs and blankets, children play nearby, conversations fill the air, and live music provides the soundtrack. It's a simple tradition that reflects what makes this community such a great place to live: good people, local businesses, and opportunities to spend time together.
Bring a chair, bring a friend, and join us Friday night.
