L.L. Bean Summer in the Park concert series

July 4, 2023 - September 2, 2023

People gather at L.L> Bean's Discovery Park in Freeport, Maine, for their Free Concerts in the Park.

FREE CONCERTS IN THE PARK

Grab a spot on the grass and spend an evening with this year’s lineup of acclaimed artists.

Guests are welcome to put out chairs starting at 6 a.m. No blankets on the lawn, please.

WILDERADO

Tuesday, July 4, at 7:30 p.m.

Formed in the California mountains, but originally hailing from Tulsa, OK, Wilderado’s signature brand of indie folk combines soaring vocals and rumbling guitars with a uniquely Americana sound. The second single, “Surefire,” off their eponymous debut album, is set to be the band’s breakout hit, with over 40 million streams and a Top 10 trajectory at Alternative Radio.

LUCIUS

Saturday, July 8, at 7:30 p.m.

Holly Laessig and Jess Wolfe are Lucius. Since 2011, they’ve shared each other’s stories on stage, weaving them into inventive indie-pop anthems. Released in 2022, their third album, Second Nature, fuses funk and disco, with ‘80s new wave, and millennial club catharsis – all imbued with the intimate lyricism they’ve become known for.

THEE SACRED SOULS

Saturday, July 29, at 7:30 p.m.

For Thee Sacred Souls, the first time is often the charm: the band’s first club dates led to a record deal with the revered Daptone label. Now, the breakout San Diego trio is ready to deliver yet another landmark first with the release of their self-titled debut – a warm and textured record, mixing the easygoing grace of sweet ‘60s soul, with the grit and groove of early ‘70s R&B, and a truly infectious stage presence.

MELISSA ETHERIDGE

Saturday, August 5, at 7:30 p.m.

Melissa Etheridge stormed onto the American rock scene in 1988 and hasn’t missed a beat since. With her trademark confessional lyrics and raspy, smoky vocals, Etheridge has remained one of America’s favorite female singer-songwriters for more than two decades, garnering dozens of accolades, including multiple Grammy® Awards and even a victory in the “Best Song” category at the 2007 Academy® Awards.

MARC COHN & SHAWN COLVIN TOGETHER ONSTAGE

Saturday, August 12, at 7:30 p.m.

Two of a generation’s favorite singer-songwriters, Marc Cohn and Shawn Colvin, come together onstage for a special evening. Cohn, a Grammy® Award winner for his soulful ballad “Walking in Memphis,” and Colvin, winner of the Grammy® Award’s Record of the Year and Song of the Year for “Sunny Came Home,” welcome fans into their decades long friendship for a night of songs and stories.

MACKENZIE PORTER

Saturday, August 26, at 7:30 p.m.

Rising to international acclaim with a distinct country-pop shimmer reminiscent of iconic predecessor Shania Twain, Canada-born and Nashville-based MacKenzie Porter’s sound knows no bounds. Making an introductory statement with her chart-dominating Dustin Lynch duet “Thinking ‘Bout You,” Porter now returns with the lightning-like summer jam “Chasing Tornadoes,” teasing what’s to come on her full-length Big Loud Records debut due later this year.

SCOTTY MCCREERY

Saturday, September 2, at 7:30 p.m.

Scotty McCreery is one of country music’s brightest stars. His current album is Same Truck: The Deluxe Album, featuring “Damn Strait” and “It Matters to Her.” McCreery has achieved five consecutive No. 1 hits, won ACM and CMT Awards, and executive produced two Hallmark holiday movies based on his No. 1 hit “Five More Minutes.” In 2011, the North Carolina native made history by becoming the first country artist and the youngest male artist of any genre to debut his first album (Clear as Day) at No. 1 on the all-genre Billboard Top 200 Albums chart.
