ST. MARYS, Ga (April 30, 2018) – The St. Marys Convention & Visitors Bureau is pleased to announce the St. Marys Porchfest and Rhythm on the River, Music in the Park on Saturday, May 12 in downtown St. Marys.
St. Marys Porchfest is a day of music where porches, yards, and businesses in downtown St. Marys become stages. There will be 15 musicians or groups performing throughout the day with three show times at 1 p.m., 2:30 p.m., and 4 p.m. at The Company House, Goodbread House Bed & Breakfast, the Floyd home, Southern Saint Boutique, and Jerry Lee’s Music Emporium. You’ll want to bring your lawn chairs to St. Marys Porchfest and to Rhythm on the River and enjoy a relaxing day of music.
Rhythm on the River is set to begin on Saturday, May 12, immediately following the St. Marys Porchfest, at the St. Marys Waterfront Park with a 6-8 p.m. performance by “Michael Hulett.” You’ll find that Michael brings a soulful mix of classic and modern jazz, R&B, soul and rock/pop tunes and is always a popular starter performance for the annual music series, formerly known as Starry Nights.
We invite you to visit downtown for an early dinner or to bring a picnic to enjoy throughout the day. There will also be several food trucks onsite at the waterfront park. Rhythm on the River is always a FREE EVENT and each event is held from 6-8 p.m., with the exception of the June 9 performance that will run 7– 9 p.m. The June 9th performance will be by “On The Border”, the ultimate Eagles Tribute Band and is presented in partnership with the Historic St. Marys Fishing Classic and the Rotary Club of Camden County.
