As part of the “Concerts on the Creek” summer music series, popular Jackson County rock/reggae act Positive Mental Attitude will hit the stage at 7 p.m. Friday, July 3, at Bridge Park in downtown Sylva.

“Our music is full of inspiration from these mountains. Water, mountain landscapes, nature, trails. They all take part in the inspiration process for us. We are proud to call Sylva home, and our sound could not be what it is without this town,” said PMA guitarist Miller Watson. “It’s also really cool to see the similarities in bluegrass music and reggae and how they took shape from the development of African banjo. It’s also nice to bring a touch of reggae to these mountains.”

“Concerts on the Creek” are held every Friday night from Memorial Day through Labor Day. Everyone is encouraged to bring a chair or blanket. These events are free, with donations encouraged. Dogs must be on a leash. No smoking, vaping, coolers or tents. Bring a chair or blanket.

The series is presented by the Town of Sylva, Jackson County Parks & Recreation Department and Jackson County Chamber of Commerce.
