Live After 5 Series Kicks off today in Uptown Greenwood web posted March 19, 2009 GREENWOOD – The streets in Uptown Greenwood will be jam packed again this season with the return of the Live After Five free concert series. On the third Thursday of each month from March 19th through October 15th, the air will be filled with music as award winning performers take the stage from 5:30 – 8 pm at the Countybank plaza. Not only does the music line up for this year’s series include a broad spectrum of music ranging from country, R & B, beach, and rock, but it will also feature special performances by area school and church groups. “2008 was a great year for the Live After Five concert series,” said Angie Jones, manager of Uptown Greenwood Development Corporation (UGDC). “We hope to continue the success again this year. Hack Bartley has joined us once more as Artistic Director of the concert series, and he has lined up a great assortment of performers. We will also feature special guest performances by area schools and churches again this year. Not only is this a great way to involve the community, it also allows us to showcase the talented youth in our area,” Jones concluded. “UGDC and the City of Greenwood are working hard together with local merchants to encourage increased pedestrian traffic in the Uptown area. The Live After 5 Concert Series is a great way for Greenwood residents and visitors to enjoy our beautiful community,” said Jones. “We believe the success of the concert series proves that people want to see more events held not just in Uptown, but Greenwood as a whole.” The concert series kicks off Thursday, March 19th with the sounds of The Embers. Having played for presidents and princes, students and bankers, at the beach and in the city, on record and in concert, The Embers are one of the most popular beach bands around.
