Opening for the Harman Bluegrass Band is DD Revival. DD Revival is a four-piece musical group that features songs of the mid-to-late 50s, 60s and early 70s. DD Revival played for the Tower's grand opening and they're back by popular demand. Casey's from Hartford will also be participating by selling snacks on site.
"The Tower has made a few attempts to bring music into our event list," Tower Director Charles Hendricks says about the concert. "Bringing the Harmans to play was the Mayor's personal request and the recipe seems to be just right."
