Nathan Dean and the Damn Band returned to Smithtown for an unforgettable end of Summer Country Music concert at Callahan’s Beach. On Saturday, August 24th, 2024, the parking lot and camp grounds were transformed into an outdoor concert venue, as Nathan Dean and The Damn Band made Smithtown the last stop on their coast-to-coast Unsupervised Tour.
The free concert was sponsored by Cosentino Companies, and organized by David Capo in conjunction with Smithtown Supervisor, Ed Wehrheim, the Town Council, the Parks Department and Public Safety. Local families packed the parking lot with tailgate-style picnic setups, while residents wishing to be closer to the band, set up beach chairs and blankets to enjoy the live performance. The Show was emceed by David Capo.
“We were ecstatic when we learned that Nathan Dean and the Damn Band wanted to return to Smithtown. We were doubly blessed when Cosentino Companies generously agreed to sponsor the cost of the event for the second year running, so the community could enjoy a great show absolutely free. I’d also like to thank and acknowledge David Capo, who originally introduced us to the band, in addition to the Parks Department, Public Safety and local foodie favorites Ralph’s Famous Ices and Philly Pretzel Factory. This band is the real deal… They had us all dancing under the stars as the sun set on our gorgeous newly renovated Callahan’s Beach. Kids were playing in the new playground area, while friends found a great spot up by the campgrounds. It was a much needed break after dealing with a week of cleanup and storm damage. Everyone had a blast and I look forward to planning their return next Summer,” said Supervisor Ed Wehrheim.
