The "First Friday" free concert series presented by The Wilcox at PARC-Plymouth Arts & Recreation Complex will be having their third concert in the series on December 6th at noon.

The concerts contain an entertaining mix of 45-60 minutes of music and dialogue with the artist. The intimate setting in PARC’s Band/Music Room will give guests an opportunity to interact with the artists and ask questions. PARC is located at 650 Church Street in Plymouth. To reach the Band/Music Room, guests should park behind the building off Adams Street and enter through the Activities Entrance. For more information please call 734-927-4090.

The December 6th performance will feature musicians Chris & Nick Brandon from In The Band. They have been making music together for as long as they can remember — which is fitting, seeing as how the Plymouth-based musicians are almost-40 year old twin brothers. While much of the duo’s time performing is as the full throttle electric prog-rock trio The Anders Orange, Chris (vocals and guitar) and Nick (percussion and bass) perform regularly in the area as an acoustic pair, entertain- ing with their own interpretations of cover songs spanning five decades. Their broad taste and di- verse catalogue will bring favorites to any group of music fans, as their trademark “all request sets” aim to give the people what they want.
