Ryan's, HomeTown Buffet, and Old Country Buffet are putting a new spin on their popular Thursday Family Night by offering free music downloads. All 326 family restaurants will be offering free downloadable music throughout the month of July. Guests will receive codes that will provide access to three free music tracks per code, including popular artists in the pop, rock, country, R & B, and soul genres.

"The sustained popularity of our Family Nights in part is due to the variety of activities we are able to provide families throughout the year," says Alice Crowder, vice president of marketing for Ovation Brands. "This music promotion is an entirely new direction for our program, and offers free family-friendly entertainment that is relevant to parents and children."

Starting Thursday, July 3, families may visit any Ryan's, HomeTown Buffet, or Old Country Buffet during Family Night to obtain their free codes to download music of their choice. The music will be available at www.amplified.com/familynight through July 31, 2014, and features popular artists from various genres. Codes are available while supplies last.

Family Night is every Thursday from 5 to 8 p.m. and has kid-friendly menu items, special kid's meal pricing, and activities that families may enjoy together.
