Sons of Adam, a rock band, will perform at 8 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 29, at the Bluffton town hall in the next Town Hall Concert Series performance.

The evening's opening act starts at 7:30 p.m.

"Some call it Folk, Indie, Alternative Rock, Apple-Core. But anyone raised in the '80s to '10s will recognize this style of music as their own, and anyone who loves earnest rock and roll with real musicianship involved will enjoy it," said Wendy Chappell-Dick of the cultural affairs committee.
