Tennessee's crisp and ember-tinted October evenings are about to get even more melodious, with the Acoustic Autumn series drawing to a close this month, dates confirmed for the final two performances are Thursday, Oct. 17 and Thursday, Oct. 24, reverberating between the tiered rows of Founders Park Amphitheater from 6 to 7:30 p.m. Located strategically at 225 Commerce St., music aficionados have the added perk to patronize downtown's culinary delights or indulge in a bit of retail therapy prior to the concerts.

Main Street Director Lindsey Jones has lauded the series, which has been a staple event harmonizing the community, "Acoustic Autumn is a perfect way to celebrate our vibrant downtown community," Johnson City's official news portal quoted Jones exclaiming, "We love how this event brings people together, whether you're dancing along to the music or simply unwinding in a laid-back setting," they added admonishing praise for the local talent while emphasizing the communal enjoyment it fosters.

As an open invitation to everyone across age brackets, the remaining lineup for the series promises a family-friendly, charge-free musical feast for those who are planning to come down with their blankets or chairs to claim a snug spot on the lawn seating. The dwindling October days will feature artists Charlie Maples on Oct. 17 and Ryder Casey on Oct. 24, marking the seasonal affair's resonant adieu.
