BREVARD COUNTY • TITUSVILLE, FLORIDA – Sand Point Park in Titusville will transform into a New Orleans style French Quarter during the Titusville Mardi Gras Party & Parade, set for Saturday, Feb. 10, 2018. The Titusville Mardi Gras will be part of the Titusville Fair, which will take place February 8-11 in the park.
Titusville Mardi Gras will feature live bands on three premier stages, including BOSTON former lead singer Fran Cosmo, The Supervillains and The Chief Cherry & His Red Beans and Rice band.
Cosmo exploded onto the Rock scene when he took over for Brad Delp as the lead singer for the legendary group BOSTON in 1992. Cosmos was featured as the lead vocalist on the “Walk On” Album which sold over one million copies worldwide.
His lead vocals were also featured on four of the songs off the “Corporate America” Album and both of BOSTON’S Greatest Hits. The song “Livin For You” was the only LIVE BOSTON song ever released on the Greatest Hits Albums.
Before joining Boston, Fran Cosmo was a highly respected lead vocalist and lead singer and co-songwriter for both ORION THE HUNTER and Barry Goudreau Albums. The Song “So You Ran” was an MTV hit and climbed to number No. 4 on the U.S Billboard chart. The band then toured with Aerosmith’s “Back in the Saddle” Tour.
The band also features Anton Cosmo, a former member of BOSTON. Anton Cosmos wrote and performed four songs off the “Corporate America” Album and performed as the backing vocalist and guitarist on the 2003-2004 world tours.

The Supervillains will perform a concert on Saturday, February 10, during the Titusville Mardi Gras.
The self-described “Florida-bred swamp reggae rockers” will play on the Space Coast Daily Stage at 9:30 p.m.
The Supervillains are from Orlando, Florida and have become one of the most popular bands of their genre in central Florida.
“We group up, listening to a ton of music ranging from grunge to punk, hip hop and and reggae. We have been influenced by The Suicide Machines, Sublime, Operation Ivy, The Skatalites, The Toasters, Peter Tosh and the Beatles.
“We are looking forward to coming back to the Titusville Mardi Gras for many reasons. We’ve been doing shows in central florida since we started touring so many years ago I can’t even count. It’s always a blast and the shows are always amazing. Plus, it’s on the coast and its outside. Little salt in the air and dope bands on the stage, then munch some mardi gras food.”
Since the beginning of the year, fans of the Supervillains’ live shows have noticed something different in the band’s personnel department. Long-time bassist (and production wizard) Dan Grundorf has permanently handed over the reins and bass duties to BJ Hall, the band’s long-tenured stage/guitar-tech and bus driver.
There will be stilt walkers, marching bands, jugglers, strolling musicians and much more to create a festive family atmosphere along the beautiful waterfront of Titusville’s Sand Point Park.
“Our company created the Cocoa Village Mardi Gras, and Sand Point Park in Titusville is a great location for a similar event,” said Giles Malone, partner with Brevard Productions Inc. which will produce the event in cooperation with several local sponsors.
“We feel that the Titusville community and downtown patrons will thoroughly enjoy a fun, family-style Mardi Gras Street Party and Parade like the one we created in Cocoa Village,” said Malone.
The 15-acre park near downtown Titusville will be the venue for the Mardi Gras and there will be live musical entertainment on all stages featuring a different genre of music.
The 9-piece swing jazz band called Chief Cherry and His Red Beans & Rice will headline the Mardi Gras stage.
“This is going to be an awesome event for our city,” said Voncile Franklin, of Franklin Productions, who is on the local organizing committee for the Titusville Mardi Gras.
“This type of family event is great for Titusville as it will have quality entertainment, will provide a celebratory meeting point for our community and will have a strong economic impact for our local businesses.”
DELICIOUS CAJUN FOOD: If you like to eat Cajun style food, there will be plenty to choose from. Delicious Shrimp and grits, crawdads, red beans and rice, Jambalaya, Po’ Boy sandwiches and much more will be on offer at the Titusville Mardi Gras.

A taste of authentic Caribbean culture will reverberate through Sand Point Park in downtown Titusville when Plena Mar Latino, a Puerto Rican group of 12 dynamic musicians, will perform their exciting and entertaining sound at the Titusville Mardi Gras Street Party & Parade, Saturday, February 11 in historic downtown Titusville.
Plena Mar Latino started as a group of four members consisting of Güiro, Punteador, Seguidor and Requinto. Then the congas, trumpets, trombones and bass were added.
Today the group consists of 12 professional musicians in its branch and thus highlighting that typical acoustic sound that is still heard playing in the corners of our neighborhoods in Puerto Rico. But at the same time, it is our attempt to maintain a tradition that, instead of staying, distant and forgotten, is reinvented originally and dynamically.
A modern group, full of energy, with young, modern visions and with much desire to continue our own style but still reserving the feeling of what is full.
That’s why they are different from the other groups in Central Florida. They have participated in several Puerto Rican parades and multiple social activities, such as The San Sebastian Street Festival in Orlando and Miami, The Bomb and Plena Festival in Tampa, The Cultural Festival in Miami and The Hispanic Festival in Jacksonville among many others.
