Simply Bridget, Big Henry to play Parkfest Tuesday
Two bands with names that otherwise sound like solo acts will grace the Parkfest stage on Tuesday.
Simply Bridget will open the evening at 6:30 p.m., followed by Big Henry in the weekly concert series at the Robe-Ann Park bandshell.
Simply Bridget is a father/daughter duo that passionately plays all styles and genres of music from 2024 bac, to 1952 – music ranging from Taylor Swift to Jelly Roll to Frank Sinatra.
Rebecca Bridget has been playing and writing music since high school, while Dad, Tim Bridget, has 53 years to call upon. Simply Bridget will have you covered whether you want to hear Johnny Cash, Adele, 4 Non Blondes, Train, Plain White T’s, Death Cab for Cutie or Elvis.
Last month, Simply Bridget debuted as singer-songwriters at H.J. Ricks Center for Performing Arts, and has enjoyed a string of engagements at wineries, country clubs and festivals.
