It's the summer’s first performance of the Big Band from America’s Hometown Band. The music lineup is a primer of hugely popular swing-band tunes & the bandleaders who made them great. From the Glen Miller Band’s 1945 hit, Leap Frog, to the Dean Martin vocal chart-buster in 1954, Sway, to the fabulous Ray Charles song released in 1962, I Can’t Stop Loving You – this is some of the most-loved American music ever.

  From Muncie's own America's Hometown Band, since 1988. This free, public concert is the One – the best of USA patriotic tunes, performed LIVE and lively, to celebrate our Nation's Independence Day. Plus - a spectacular finish with Sousa's rousing march tune Stars & Stripes Forever!
