"The Large Flowerheads" at West Park

08/10/2021

“The Large Flowerheads” wrap-up the Allentown Department of Parks & Recreation’s 2021 Saturday in the Park concert series at historic West Park on Saturday, August 14 from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.

Named after a carton of artificial flowers spotted in a warehouse rehearsal space, “The Large Flowerheads” consists of Maureen “Moe” Jerant on drums and guitar, Greg Geist on rhythm guitar and drums, Billy Trexler on lead guitar & electric sitar, Dave Follweiler on keyboards, and Colleen Zajacik on bass & percussion.

The band brings to life the sights and sounds of the groovy ‘60s playing numbers from The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Sonny & Cher, Dusty Springfield, Mamas & The Papas, The Monkees and so many more.

“The Large Flowerheads” have opened for Peter Noone & Herman’s Hermits, The 5th Dimension, The Guess Who, and The Vogues.  At Wildwood’s Sensational ‘60’s Weekend, they warmed-up the crowd for the Grass Roots, Gary Puckett & the Union Gap, and Paul Revere & the Raiders.

“The Large Flowerheads” have performed at Musikfest Café, Penn’s Peak in Jim Thorpe PA, Sellersville Theater, Hollywood Casino in Hershey, Bayonne Summer Concert Series in Bayonne NJ, and TD Bank Amphitheater in Bensalem. They can also be seen performing at fairs, festivals and summer concert series throughout the region, including Musikfest.

Batch Microcreamery will be on hand at the concert to sell refreshments.

West Park is located between 15th - 16th Street between Linden and Turner streets.
