Big Bang Boom to perform July 15 Big Bang Boom Band will present a concert Monday, July 15, at 6 p.m. at Pa- triot’s Park as part of the 2013 Summer Reading Program at Mauney Memorial Library. Established in 2007 in Greensboro, this rockin’ 3-piece power pop band con- sists of talented artists and long-time mu- sicians, and doesn’t play just any ole average music. These dynamic dads play parent-friendly music. After 20 years of touring, Chuck, Steve and Eddie decided to expand their horizons and play for parents (like them- selves) who want more from children’s music. They write songs with a pop sen- sibility by cleverly mixing alternative, hip-hop, pop, country, and other genres to create music that parents and children can relate to and enjoy! Think of it as a “kid- appropriate frat party.” The band is set to release their third CD. You can listen to Big Bang Boom on Kindiecast, Saturday Morning Cereal Bowl, and Spare the Rock Spoil the Child. Between 5 — 6 p.m., Created to Praise Dance Academy, owned and operated by Kelli Putnam, will be passing out free children’s books.
