The community is invited to the sixth annual Fridays at the Fountain concert series, featuring five live performances at the Brooks Memorial Fountain.

Free to attend – attendees are encouraged to bring a lawn chair or blanket. In the event of rain, the event will take place at Dark Horse Brewing Co. in the beer garten covered area.

 

Simply In Time was formed in early 2022 by Robb Hughes, Eric Nollett, and Steve Boersma out of a ten-piece horn driven band they met in. The original purpose was to create and play our own instrumental versions of some popular music spanning genres from funk to rock to pop and dance for some small venues, open mics, and event background entertainment. When Jake Oakey was introduced to the band, he came with a catalog of original songs that he had written and performed back in Colorado. Let’s just say, adding his vocals, guitar skills, and incredible ability to write music made our goals change overnight! Simply In Time oƯicially came into existence in the summer of 2022. Kendra DeVrou joined the band in early 2023 bringing amazing lead and backing vocal layers that completed and filled our vision. From a four-song open mic debut at The Park Theater in July 2022, we have become a sought-after band for West Michigan venues. With our “party set” now in-place, we are currently working on our first release of original music in 2024 with seven songs already written and ready to record.
