Fashions fade - but style is forever. The band has combed its library to bring everyone the brightest of highlights.

 

The Nevada County Concert Band once again opens shop at Pioneer Park in Nevada City to provide everyone a free musical makeover with BIG HAIR!, the third of four summer concerts celebrating the 50th anniversary of 1967Õs Summer of Love.

 

There will be a brush though the 60Õs with the medleys ÒSummer of 69Ó and music from the Broadway production of ÒGrease.Ó  The original mop tops will be remembered with ÒBeatles Medley.Ó

 

Our resident mop top and winner of the 2017 Jerry Foote Scholarship Miles Mason will tease us with the big jazz band classic ÒCute.Ó  He will also reprise his role in ÒThe Story Line of Carmen in Under 3 Minutes.Ó

 

For a more classic look, the lilting ÒBlack is the Color of My True LoveÕs HairÓ will show off our woodwind choirÕs natural beauty, especially when joined by bells and harp.  And the band will gleam while performing John Philip SousaÕs march ÒOur Flirtation.Ó

 

The impeccably groomed 007 will drop in for ÒBond....James Bond.Ó  And the sun will surely be let in to shine with music from the Broadway Musical ÒHair,Ó and the kids will enjoy a musical clip from the movie "Tangled."  For bit of Latin finesse, we will go south of the border with ÒMexican Hat DanceÓ with guest dancers from Patria Insurgente.

 

And it is rumored there will be a roaming hairdresser to gussy up anyone who forgot to properly do up their tresses before leaving home for Pioneer Park.  Remember, the higher the hair, the closer to heaven!
