The Tim Ruffo Band performs for the crowd that attended the opening night of Bike Night on Wednesday.

Bike Night in Owego saw a good crowd as the summer event, held each Wednesday from 6 to 9 p.m., opened for the season on Wednesday. Bike Night is held every Wednesday night on Front Street near Draper Park, and features live entertainment at Owego’s Parkview Hotel and Restaurant.

The Tim Ruffo Band, who was a crowd favorite, provided entertainment for this free event.

On Wednesday, June 1, Hummel’s Jug will entertain guests from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m.

Country band Hummel’s Jug is based out of upstate New York. Their sound is edgy, but fits the mold of the legends they model themselves after; legends such as Waylon Jennings, Merle Haggard, David Alan Coe and Johnny Cash to name a fraction of the many.

When describing Hummel’s Jug original music, it’s best defined as “Outlaw Country”. Having formed in July of 2013, the band is young and it’s potential is limitless. Members include Gene Hummel (guitar, lead vocals), Chad J. Dean (drums, vocals), and Bob Niederriter (bass guitar, vocals).

Bike Night is please to welcome its sponsors this year, which includes Allstate Insurance, Southern Tier Harley Davidson, The Haircolor Café, and The Owego Pennysaver.
