Bridgewater Music Alley Series
Located in Bridgewater, Massachusetts the Music Alley performances take place between 5 and 8 PM on Thursdays each June through early September. All music will be family centered entertainment, vendors will sell food each week and the community will gather and share in live music!
Music Alley started as an area between two buildings that contained little more than unkempt grass, broken fence posts, debris; it was generally an ignored area. The Town Clerk, Marilee Hunt, had a vision to turn it into a community space with possible entertainment.
In the start of 2016, Marilee Hunt gathered a group of Bridgewater residents to form a steering committee in order to explore the options and secure funds to execute a plan. This committee created Music Alley, a community outdoor music venue to hold weekly entertainment during the summer months, free to anybody who wanted to enjoy the area and live entertainment.
The first year of performances gained much more attention than originally anticipated; it was clear that Music Alley was a ‘hit’ with attendees! Every night saw 100+ people over the course of the evening. Since then, citizens have never stopped asking about what is next for Music Alley or who is playing in the next season.
Since the inaugural season, Music Alley’s growing reputation has drawn in nationally and regionally known performers like Ryan Montbleau, Jesse Dee, Cahill, Will Dailey, Daniel Miller, Kingsley Flood, Lux Delux, Dwight & Nicole the Jay Psaros Band, Sam Woolf and The Oshima Brothers.
