8 Great Tuesdays: Local bands land Erie concert series gigs in 2021


Pop Rockets vocalist Rebecca Shaner sees this summer's 8 Great Tuesdays as both validation for her Erie band and a reminder for local music lovers.
She said that being chosen as the headliner for the first ErieBank 8 Great Tuesdays concert of 2021 signifies that The Pop Rockets has "made it in our town."
And it also lets the community know that "when those big bands aren't around, we're here to entertain you and we have a blast doing it," Shaner said.
The Pop Rockets is one of four "local bands," or those from western Pennsylvania, selected as headliners for this year's 8 Great Tuesday concerts, which start next Tuesday and run weekly through Aug. 24 at Liberty Park. The Erie-Western Pennsylvania Port Authority, which puts on the concert series, also chose local bands for all eight opening acts. In 2020, the 8 Great Tuesday concerts were canceled due to COVID-19.
