Local band Evolution to launch free concerts

Organizers of the annual Summer Concert Series on the town common have released the schedule of bands. The annual family event is scheduled for Wednesdays from 6 to 8 p.m., with Thursdays the rain date. Launching this year’s series next week is Evolution, a rock band featuring Lynnfield High alumni, followed by the Brian Maes Band (July 18), which plays popular rock; the Squeezebox Stompers (July 25), playing a blend of Cajun, zydeco, and blues; and ’60s Invasion (Aug. 1), which plays vintage hits. All concerts are free, but donations are welcome. The series is presented by the Lynnfield Public Library, with several local sponsors.
