Friday nights in downtown Mansfield are about more than live music—they’re about the people who make this community feel alive.
Even with rain in the forecast, the clouds held off long enough for another great Final Friday at The Brickyard.
Opening the evening was Sorelle, whose signature three-part harmonies have earned them national recognition on The Voice. Their music was already drawing a crowd at 5:30, and for me there was another layer to the evening. These talented sisters graduated from Lexington with my kids, so seeing them on the Brickyard stage brought back a lot of memories.
The Jevan Cole Band followed with a fantastic set. Years ago, Jevan won Lexington Idol during the same season my son was one of the contestants, so it was another familiar face on stage and another reminder of how many local musicians continue to share their talents with our community and beyond!
Although I wasn’t able to stay through the final performance by Master TC & The Visitors, I wanted to include them in the album to recognize everyone who helped make the evening a success.
As you look through the photos, you’ll notice I try to capture more than just the musicians. The child dancing in front of the stage, the dog posing for the camera, friends catching up, families spending time together—those moments tell the story of Final Friday just as much as the music.
And here’s a tip if you’ve never been: Richland County Transit offers FREE door-to-door rides to Final Friday. Skip the parking search, avoid the construction, and let someone else handle the driving so you can simply enjoy the evening. 419-522-4504 call to schedule your FREE RIDE
Looking forward to seeing everyone downtown again next month.
