Two local bands will play a benefit concert on Friday for a nonprofit medical research organization.

The concert is at the Historic Grove Theater, and it features The Collies, a folk and psychedelic rock band from Oak Ridge. The Sea Legs, an alternative rock band from Webb High School, will open the show, a press release said.

The press release said all proceeds will benefit Families of Spinal Muscular Atrophy, a leading nonprofit focused on funding SMA research to develop a treatment and cure for the disease.

The doors open at 7 p.m., and tickets are $3 for students and $5 for adults.
