McGuffey Lane’s roots go back to 1972 and if you’re a country music fan from Ohio, they need no introduction. Their long history includes major record deals, national tours and many ups and downs along the way, but one thing has never changed – their country rock sound. Join us to enjoy Columbus’ own musical legend, the great McGuffey Lane.

Enjoy the concert at the Hinson Amphitheater from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.

A band performs on stage with various instruments including guitars, a banjo, a violin, and a washboard, in front of an audience.

Grassinine

Buzz Bin

July 10th

90’s music rocks…and Buzz Bin will take you there! Always fun and upbeat, this band will transport you to the era of flannels, beanie babies and dial up AOL. Playing everything from the alt-rock of Third Eye Blind and the Gin Blossoms to the pop hits of the Spice Girls and the Backstreet Boys with some one-hit-wonders like “No Rain” and “Closing Time” sprinkled in along the way.

July 24th
