The Chill will fill the air on Friday night as the main musical attraction of June Jam on the Square in Downtown Kosciusko on Friday night. They are very excited about performing here,” Kosciusko-Attala Development Corporation Vice President Tonya Threet said.

Band members describe their style as classic rock and roll, motown, and variety dance music.

The Chill sound is an exciting blend of horns, guitars, percussion and vocal harmony, with a unique combination of fun personalities ready to create a party.

It’s a fun, family friendly event, Threet said.

She encourages people to bring their lawn chairs. There will also be a covered outdoor eating area between Claude Julian’s and Rib Alley.
