Free Concert Tuesday: Dance the Night Away In Chesterfield, 7-9pm

This 9-piece band plays Rock/Pop Classics, Big Band, Pop, Motown, Swing and R&B.

A band with big sound, two singers, horns, guitar, keyboard and more, plays Tuesday night 7-9pm in Faust County Park in Chesterfield.

It's the fourth in a series of free summer concerts every Tuesday, organized by Chesterfield Chamber of Commerce. The county park, city and individual businesses sponsor the concerts.

Spectrum Band plays June 26. The popular St. Louis band even opened for ZZ Top at Scottrade Center as part of an IBM corporate event, and has played all around the St. Louis metropolitan area, and beyond, for two decades, according to its website.

BEST TIP: Parking option

There are two entrances to the concert venue. I discovered the one last week that is east on Olive Boulevard of the main entrance to Faust Park. Going in there, you can park on the grass at the back of the concert hill. Much closer to epicenter.

Otherwise, unless you arrive very early, the main entrance to the park and its lots are typically so full that you have to walk a much longer way to the concert. This longer walk is on a paved area though, if you need that.
