Thursdays on College fall concert series kicks off with Terence Lonon & the Untouchables

WHAT: Thursdays on College concert featuring Terence Lonon & the Untouchables 
WHERE: East College Avenue, Hartsville, S.C. 
WHEN: Thursday, Sept. 5, 6:30 p.m. - 8:30 p.m. 


Thursdays on College, the concert series presented by the City of Hartsville and the Hartsville Downtown Development Association, will return on Sept. 5 with a repeat performance by Terence Lonon and the Untouchables. This first concert of the fall season, taking place on East College Avenue from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., is sponsored by Duke Energy. 

Returning to Hartsville after an enthusiastic reception last year, the group was formed by Terence Lonon, a former member of Bill Pinkney’s Original Drifters. The legendary, timeless doo-wop and R&B hits of the Drifters, songs such as “Under the Boardwalk” and “Save the Last Dance for Me,” are part of the Untouchables’ large repertoire. The group also offers a variety of selections from other famed performers in the R&B/Soul tradition such as the Temptations, the Tams, the Four Tops and more. 

The free event will have food and drink available for sale from Bizzell’s Food & Spirits as well as Vintage Wine Boutique. Child care services will also be available through Nana’s Play Zone. 

Thursday’s concert will only be the first in the fall Thursdays on College series. Chris Wilson and Planet Earth will appear in a Sept. 19 concert sponsored by Sonoco, followed by the Reggie Sullivan Band in an Oct. 3 concert sponsored by the Campus Activities Board of Coker College. Erica Lynn Berg and the band Wine Down will finish the series on Oct. 17, sponsored by First Citizens Bank and Nucor Corporation.
