Tonight marked the first performance of Smithtown’s 8th annual “Dennis Cannataro Family Summer Concert Series” run by The Friends of the Smithtown Library. This year the concerts are being held on the front lawn of the Smithtown Library, on the corner of 25 and North Country Road. They are free to everyone and from the size of the audience it looked like everyone showed up. Tonight’s headlining performance was “Strawberry Fields” a ;)

Their resemblance to George, Ringo, Paul, and John is uncanny. The music attracted a good number of dancers in front of the stage, much to the dismay of their sons and daughters left red-faced in the crowd. The weather was warm the audience came prepared with chairs and blankets to sit on. Everyone seemed to be singing, humming, smiling and having a good time.
This is the first of eight scheduled performances in the concert series, next week Rick Larrimore will be performing in tribute to Rod Stewart. The concert series provides a great atmosphere to enjoy with family members of any age, and is sure to bring smiles to the faces of adults and children alike.
