The Nazareth Area Chamber of Commerce (NACC), a proud partner of the Greater Lehigh Valley Chamber of Commerce, is thrilled to be bringing back the famous Martin on Main music and guitar festival after a three year hiatus!<\/p>\n
Starting at noon on Saturday, July 30th<\/sup>, over sixty acts will be performing on, not one \u2013 but TWO stages in downtown Nazareth! Music and guitar lovers will enjoy seven hours of entertainment, featuring Laurence Juber, a two time Grammy Winner as headliner, and over sixty supporting acts to keep Nazareth\u2019s Main Street rockin\u2019 all afternoon.<\/p>\n Featuring Wil & Robert, The Beautiful Distortion, Kelsey & Grace, Rod Abernathy, Keith, John, & Sue, Melody Cruz, Brian Dunne, Dina Hall, The Audio Files, and many more!<\/p>\n Don\u2019t think there\u2019s only music to enjoy at this festival! The Nazareth Branch of the Greater Valley YMCA will be hosting a farmer\u2019s market in their parking lot. In addition, Main Street will be closed to vehicles and open to foot traffic from The Circle all the way down to Belvidere Street. Food truck vendors, crafting vendors, and alcohol will be available to those over 21.<\/p>\n Thanks to our headlining hometown sponsor, Martin Guitars, we also have a raffle to win! The classic D 28 guitar,\u00a0valued at over $3,000<\/em>, is a fantastic instrument that has been a staple in many artists\u2019 collections! After nearly a century at the helm, and as the quintessential workhorse of music legends like Hank Williams, The Beatles, Johnny Cash, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, and so many more, Martin’s legendary D-28 has been lovingly and artfully enhanced. The all new D-28 blends the rich history of the guitar with Martin\u2019s newest and most heralded innovations. The 184 year old guitar maker has combined vintage appointments, including open gear tuners, an aged toner top, antique white accents, and a faux tortoise pickguard with a new neck profile to give D-28 enthusiasts a modern feel and comfortable playing experience. Martin has also added forward-shifted bracing to allow greater vibration of the top. The legend just got better! This beautiful instrument could be yours \u2013 raffle tickets are only $10 each.<\/p>\n Of course, incredible events like this one would not be possible without our sponsors: Wrenchtec, Schoolhouse Orthodontics, Truist, Paramont Business Development, The Morning Call, Nazareth Mutual Insurance, Nazareth Center for the Arts, Peters, Moritz, Peischl, Zulick, Landes & Brienza, Nazareth Army & Navy, Keystone Consulting Engineers, JP Mascaro, East Lawn Supply, MorningStar Living, and Vigilance Hose Co #1!<\/p>\n Jess O\u2019Donnell, EVP of Affiliated Chambers of the Greater Lehigh Valley Chamber of Commerce said, \u201cThis beloved community event is back after three years!
