Free Summer Concert Series With Somersworth, NH's Middleman

The Shark's Summer Concert Series is on!

Shark in the Park 2025 is a free community concert series featuring local bands of Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts on Wednesday nights throughout the months of July and beginning of August at Henry Law Park in Dover, New Hampshire, from 6-8pm.

Our Third Band of the Series, from Somersworth, NH: MIDDLEMAN

Get ready to rock!

MIddleman from Somersworth, NH is a repeat band for Shark in the Park. They also played the series in 2024, however, the gig was rained out at Henry Law Park.

This year, the weather looks perfect.

The band consists of Don, his son Travis, Mike, Curt and Jeff.

Make no mistake about it, Middleman's fans are very enthusiastic and I can see why. They not only play great music, but they are people that you want to hang out with after a long day at work and have a beer with. (Or wine, if you're me)

The band wanted to thank the places that gave them their start:

Earth Eagle North in Somersworth, NH

Stripe Nine Brewery in Somersworth, NH that is now closed.

Middleman used to host an Open Mic at Stripe Nine, but now that they are closed, they will have to find a new home for their open mic nights.

Don's Store in Somersworth, NH, Toys From the Attic has been around for a very long time. Travis, Don's son and Lead Guitarist for the band, grew up in the store. What a fun way to grow up!

Thank you to Middleman for joining us for Shark in the Park!

Grab a blanket and grab a hot dog from Dover Dogs and join us on Wednesday, July 16 from 6-8pm at Henry Law Park in Dover.

What if it Rains?

Like the Blind Melon song says, there will be No Rain tomorrow. It looks like a perfect night for live music. However, for our future shows, if it does rain, we will announce it on our Facebook page.
