Solo performer Darcy Kerr and Invercargill band Triple Shot take to the stage this year and Chris Chilton of Triple Shot says the new venue will be able to accommodate more people than the Gunpit that has been used for the last few years and hopefully that will attract an even bigger crowd. Chilton says he finds the “Summer Sounds crowds really welcoming and that it is great to celebrate summer and give people the opportunity to hear bands in their own back yard.”
Meanwhile Kerr says the change of venue is “exciting.” There is a good view of the beach and he is promising a repertoire that people can sing along to, some bangers and a few originals including some new material.”
The concert, organised by Bluff Promotions, will commence at 2pm and should run for approximately two hours.
Argyle Park can be found by following State Highway 1 through Bluff and turning right at Gregory Street.
Summer Sounds is designed for audiences to bring the deck chair or blanket and enjoy songs that they know and love with perhaps the odd original thrown in.
There is no charge to attend but a Koha bucket will be available at the venue.
The event is smoke, vape and alcohol free.
Should the weather cause a cancellation a notification will be made on the Bluff Promotions facebook page on the morning of the event.
Summer Sounds is a Bluff Promotions event with the support of the Creative Communities Scheme, Bluff Engineering & Welding, i Hire Invercargill, King ‘of The Road Bluff/Oreti Transport and ICC Parks.
