Trinity’s musical repertoire contains songs from all your favorite classical rock-and-roll artists including AC/DC, Deep Purple, the Doobie Brothers, Kiss, Judas Priest, Ozzy Osbourne, the Scorpions and Whitesnake to name a few.
The summer concerts were named the Greg Johnston Summer Concerts last year in honor and recognition for Johnston’s work as founder of the concerts on behalf of the Work+Life Committee. The concerts provide staff with a new and unique way to enjoy their lunch hour once each month during the summer. Johnston, who worked in the University Communication and Marketing Department as a Sr. Communications Specialist, passed away in 2007 after a brief battle with cancer.
The Office of Institutional Advancement, Division of Student Affairs and UNM Staff Council’s Work+Life Committee sponsor the Greg Johnston Summer Concert Series.
The last concert in this summer’s series will feature the Squash Blossom Boys on Friday, Aug. 22. The concerts begin at noon at the University Honors Plaza.
