New this year on Floyd’s ever-expanding music scene is the Thurday night series of concerts at Hotel Floyd.

At a time when the cost of enjoying music is going up at some venues, the Hotel Floyd series if free to the public and features popular area bands with a mix of music. Franklin County bluegrass act The Harwell Grice Band performed this Thursday night to a small but appreciative crowd.

The series continues through October with music from 5 to 8 p.m.
