Bradford Beach and the Milwaukee County Parks dish up a summer of music with the new "Bradford Beach Bonfire Music Series."

The summer-long concert series begins Thursday, June 16 at 6:30 p.m. and runs every Thursday until dusk through Sept. 15. The free concerts feature live music, three large bonfire pits and a host of happy hour specials at the Beach Hut.

Beach Hut happy hour purchases are also good for a wristband that gets concert goers one free BelAir Margarita at BelAir Cantina or a Pint of the Day at Hi-Hat Garage on the night of the concert.

The series kicks off with a performance from 2011 Radio Milwaukee Solo Artist of the Year Ethan Keller. It is recommended that concert goers bring their own chairs and blankets for beach seating.

The schedule isn't full quite yet, but you can get a taste of what's
to come and stay tuned for upcoming announcements by checking out the series' website.
