The City of Statesboro recently held its first of four “Downtown Live” series concerts on East Main Street in front of the Bulloch County Courthouse.
The concert took place on Thursday June 1st from 6pm-8pm, and was headlined by the vocal group, The Tams.
The concert was FREE to the public, and countless locals attended the event to partake in an evening of family-friendly music and fun.
The scene of the “Downtown Live” concert was both parts lively and energetic.
It was simply beautiful.
