Alpena MI – True North Radio Network announces their 2011 Summer Concert Series line up featuring a performance on Saturday, July 30 by 7 Million Jigawatts at the Bay View Amphitheater in Alpena. Don’t miss the chance to hear Alpena native, Melissa Behring, as she returns home after spending three months on tour for Princess Cruises.

Celebrate the peak of summer in Northern Michigan with a beautiful evening in the park overlooking lovely Lake Huron and listening to 7 Million Jigawatts (7MJ) own brand rock and soul infused music. 7MJ has recently been making quite a name for themselves. In July, the members of 7MJ will have just returned home from their performance on board the Coral Princess touring the Panama Canal, the Mexican Riviera and Alaska for Princess Cruises. Their uniquely original sound caught the eye of Ford Motor Company when they featured the 7MJ song, “I’ve Got You Covered” in their 2010 Mustang online advertising campaign. In 2009, they had a very successful release of their first original CD “Taking Flight”, which is available online at ITunes, Last FM, Digstation, and CD Baby.
