Harrow-based musician, Larry Affeldt, also known as Lawrence Hank, wrapped up the 2018 edition of the Tune Up the Park summer concert series in Essex Centre’s Heritage Gardens Park last Wednesday evening.
Coincidently, Affeldt, known for playing rock and blues infused tunes, kicked off the Essex Centre portion of the Tune up the Parks summer concert series in 2017.
At both performances, a crowd comprised of music enthusiasts warmly welcomed Affeldt.
On Wednesday evening, the local musician played the electric guitar to shred into the songs he performed and also provided vocals for the performance.
Music became an important part of Affeldt’s life at an early age as his family members were always playing.
This was the fourth year the Arts, Culture, and Tourism Committee has offered the Tune Up the Parks concert series to the community. Performances were hosted at Colchester Park on Monday evenings and in Essex Centre on Wednesday evenings. Additional concerts were also held in Harrow and McGregor Centres.
