Jackson Gore Summer Music Series begins

Friday, June 12 — LUDLOW — Okemo Mountain Resort kicks off summer with the return of the Jackson Gore Summer Music Series. Named a 2015 Best Of New England Editor’s Pick by Yankee Magazine, free concerts are scheduled from 6 to 9 p.m. most Friday nights throughout the summer starting June 12. Local favorite, Rick Redington & The Luv will be this season’s first musical guest. Described by one music writer as a “Folk-Abilly-Rasta-Jam-Rock Band,” Rick Redington & The Luv pairs R.R.’s powerful vocals and guitar slinging efforts with hot-gypsy-bass-mama Heather Lynne and longtime band alumnus Blake Gowan on drums.

On Friday nights throughout the summer season, the lawn in the courtyard at Okemo’s Jackson Gore Inn is transformed into an outdoor concert venue featuring popular local and regional bands. Admission is free and the grounds open at 5 p.m. Families are welcome and attendees are encouraged to bring lawn chairs or picnic blankets. In case of rain, the concerts will move under cover.
