Morris Beach & Recreation's 2025 Summer Concert Series continues!


Soul Sound Revue is by far the hottest nine piece Motown show this side of Detroit, performing the greatest hits in the true “Motown Tradition”. Soul Sound Revue recreates the dynamic vocal harmonies and stylings of classic Motown groups of the sixties, seventies, and eighties: The Four Tops, The Temptations, Stevie Wonder, Earth Wind & Fire, and many more. With all its flash and finery, reminiscent of a time when a band’s looks were as important as their sound, Soul Sound Revue’s three lead vocalists explode onto the stage backed by a power house rhythm and horn section!


Bring your beach chairs and blankets and join us at the Morris Town Beach Pavilion as we celebrate Summer with some amazing live music! Wooo hooooo!


FOOD TRUCKS!

La Guera Mexican Grill & Cantina

Ben & Jerry's


Fun begins at 6:00 pm. No tickets or reservations required.


**Please be advised that Morris Town Beach Parking Permits are NOT required to attend any Town sponsored function, including our annual Summer Concert Series.**
