Music Under the Stars at Chaffee Planetarium Blends Psychedelic with 70’s Rock

The Grand Rapids Public Museum (GRPM) continues the 2018 Concerts Under the Stars series in the Chaffee Planetarium with new music from Grand Rapids’ band Major Murphy on Thursday, April 12. It may blow your mind.

Major Murphy reimagines 1970's radio rock with bristling sensitivity for our present era. They have debuted three albums with the newest “No. 1” being released just recently in March that combines the sounds of rock, pop and dream pop.

This concert is really a chilled-out tempo and atmosphere, with a few layers of psychedelia. The concert begins at 7:30 p.m., with doors opening at 6:30 p.m. Refreshments, beer and other beverages will be available for purchase.

This concert will feature a custom light show on the planetarium’s dome, which boasts state-of-the-art technology with 4k visuals and surround sound for an amazing immersive concert experience.

Tickets are $10 for GRPM members, $12 for non-members if purchased in advance, and $15 for non-members on the day of the concert. Tickets are currently on sale at grpm.org, by calling 616.929.1700 or at the Museum’s front desk.
