Zeme Libre (Zem-may Lee-bray) will perform in the Poland Spring Preservation Sunset Concert Series at 6:30 p.m. on Monday, Aug. 7, at the gazebo at the Poland Spring Inn in Poland.

The  New England based band has quickly garnered a reputation for its unique high energy blend of Afrobeat, reggae, ska and funk. Since 2015, the band has released five albums and has played well over 150 plus shows and festivals throughout New England playing and sharing the stage with such great acts as Michael Franti, the Skatalites, Toots and the Maytals to The English Beat and the Mighty Bosstones.

Admission is $5 per person. The gate opens at 6 p.m. Chairs are available or bring your own or a picnic blanket. In the event of inclement weather, the concert will be moved indoors to the Poland Spring Inn. The Poland Spring Inn is located at 640 Maine St., Poland. Complimentary water is provided by the Poland Spring Bottling Company.

The series serves as a fundraiser to support the group’s mission to preserve and restore two historic buildings: the All Souls Chapel and Maine State Building. Take a moment to speak to a volunteer, or one of our staff, if you are interested in learning more about the buildings, the history of Poland Spring, or how to become a member or volunteer.
