The 195^th Maine Army Band will perform a free public concert at the Camden Library Amphitheatre at 2 pm Sunday, June 30. Volunteers from the Camden and West Bay Rotary clubs are helping to promote and support the event.

The 195^th Army National Guard Band includes musicians from all over Maine. It offers a wide array of performing groups, including a full concert band, marching band, jazz band, brass band, and pop band. The Band is directed by CW4 Brady Harris.

“We are delighted to return once again to the Camden Amphitheatre,” said Sergeant First Class Richard Romanelli. “We will have our full complement of musicians for the Camden performance, and we have a great lineup of music to offer Camden.”

All band members participate in the group’s concert band, performing a broad repertoire for public audiences at military and civic functions. The band carries on the proud tradition of military bands past and present, playing everything from military marches to significant wind band compositions and works by area composers.

The 195^th Army Band promotes readiness by performing music that boosts troop morale, unit esprit, and military operations. The 195^th also performs for community events such as “Home Days,” parades, community concerts, and commissioning events.

Concertgoers are encouraged to bring chairs or blankets and arrive before the concert begins at 2 pm. Learn more at 195th Maine Army National Guard Band (ng.mil).
