Nashville Crush to take the stage Sunday

Nashville Crush will take the Hanser Pavilion stage Sunday evening for the first Delphos Rotary Club’s Music in the Park Concert in July. Nashville Crush is a homegrown band with roots stemming from Putnam County. They have been performing for 17 years and have made a name for themselves as one of the best live bands around. The band is a perfect balance of country and rock music provided by some of the best musicians and vocalists in the business. They are a party on stage no matter where they go: a true local favorite. Concerts begin at 6 p.m. with concessions available starting at 5:30 p.m. (CherryRoad Media file photo)
