SUMMARY:Garnet Rodgers
DESCRIPTION:“Garnet Rogers is capable of awe-inspiring and unpredictable stuff – and that includes more than just music” \nIn a darkened bedroom\, lit only by the amber glow from an old floor model radio\, two young brothers aged 6 and 12 lay in their beds\, listening to the country music broadcasts from the Grand Ol’ Opry\, and practiced their harmonies. Two years later\, the youngest one was playing the definitive 8-year-old’s version of “Desolation Row” on his ukulele. He soon abandoned that instrument to teach himself the flute\, violin and guitar. \nWithin ten years\, and barely out of high school\, Garnet Rogers was on the road as a full-time working musician with his older brother Stan. Together they formed what has come to be accepted as one of the most influential acts in North American folk music. \nSince then\, Garnet Rogers has established himself as ‘One of the major talents of our time”. Hailed by the Boston Globe as a “charismatic performer and singer”\, Garnet is a man with a powerful physical presence – close to six and a half feet tall – with a voice to match. With his “smooth\, dark baritone” (Washington Post) his incredible range\, and thoughtful\, dramatic phrasing\, Garnet is widely considered by fans and critics alike to be one of the finest singers anywhere. His music\, like the man himself\, is literate\, passionate\, highly sensitive\, and deeply purposeful. Cinematic in detail\, his songs “give expression to the unspoken vocabulary of the heart” (Kitchener Waterloo Record). An optimist at heart\, Garnet sings extraordinary songs about people who are not obvious heroes and of the small victories of the everyday. As memorable as his songs\, his over-the-top humour and lightning-quick wit moves his audience from tears to laughter and back again. \nResolutely independent\, Garnet Rogers has turned down offers from major labels to do his music his own way. \nMuch more at https://garnetrogers.com/?page_id=29026

SUMMARY:Winter Potpourri with Kirsten Manville
DESCRIPTION:LINDEN TREE COFFEEHOUSE’S 2022 WINTER POTPOURRI \nWith Kirsten Manville and Ten Other Area Performers.  SATURDAY\,  December 10 at 7:30 pm. \nLinden Tree Coffeehouse’s WINTER POTPOURRI is back for an evening of discovering new talent! on Saturday\, December 10th at 7:30 pm.  Ten New England singer-songwriters will play two songs each with hopes to be chosen to perform during next year’s season. Audience input will play a major part in the decision\, so please come down to help make the choice while enjoying new music and new faces.  The admission for this show is a suggested $10 which will be shared with the Wakefield Interfaith Food Pantry. \nFeaturing and hosting the show is Kirsten Manville\, a Wakefield based singer-songwriter who engages audiences with melodic and lyric-focused Americana music\, with a touch of blues and country.  Her songs have singable lyrics and memorable melodies that capture stories about every day life \, the ups and downs and in-betweens.  Her latest CD is “Blossoms in the Sun.”  It was a Top 5 pick in the September 2022 issue of Metronome Magazine. \nPerforming in this year’s potpourri are Ric Allendorf\, Dan & Faith\, Alex Fam\, Folkapotamus\, Rick Gottlieb\, Kenny Selcer\, Rob Siegel\, and Erin Ash Sullivan. This year’s talents come with noteable CDs and award credits. For a preview\, most of the contestents in our answer to THE VOICE have websites where you can listen to a tune or two. \nRic Allendorf Ric Allendorf is a Massachusetts native and award-winning singer-songwriter\, accomplished illustrator and Associate Professor at MassArt. Since writing his first song in 2014\, he has been a finalist and winner in multiple national songwriter competitions\, a feature at New England folk festivals and listening rooms including the legendary Club Passim\, and an opener for numerous acclaimed ‘main stage’ acts. His 2018 debut CD “Take It All In” continues to garner international radio play and an active gig schedule throughout New England.  He participated in the Maine Songwriter’s Association Annual Song Contest in 2021 and placed third for his original song\, “ Room for a Song.” In 2021\, Ric was featured in the Northeast Regional Folk Alliance (NERFA) ‘Folk DJ Emerging Artist Showcase’. \nDan and Faith are an award-winning\, New England-based husband and wife singer-songwriter duo who describe their music as dream-inspired folk. Daniel Senie (guitar\, banjo\, harmonica\, vocals) and Faith Senie (mandolin\, bass guitar\, dulcimer\, ukulele\, vocals) tap into dreams and everyday life in crafting their original songs. The duo has released five albums. The most recent three are available: Simple Grace (2014)\, Seeking (2016) and Then and Now (2020). The latest\, Then and Now\, reached #7 on the Folk DJ Chart in January 2020. \nAlex Fam is a spirited folk singer\, songwriter\, and multi-instrumentalist whose lyric-driven songs invite listeners on a journey of reflection and joy.  She masterfully combines her vocals with violin\, and ukulele. She is the 2022 recipient of the UU Mass Action “Ruth Rowan Award\,” given to a person actively engaged in social justice and who motivates others to take action\, through music. \nFolkapotamus is a folk duo consisting of Penni Hart and Tony Trites who have been performing together since 2011. With beautiful melodies and lyrics\, the duo has performed an many coffeehouses and folk venues in New England and the Midwest. Their two full albums\, contain new compositions\, as well as classical folk songs and a favorite rock song sung in their own folky style. “River Slope Mine” . tells about a mining disaster in Pennsylvania which contrasts with “Road to Nowhere” that has a good time sitting on the porch playing music vibe. \nRick Gottlieb has been a musician for over 40 years\, playing songs of his favorite musicians and then writing some of his own\, influenced by David Wilcox and his use of non-standard tunings\, as well as Susan Werner\, and Jackson Browne. He claimsi his music speaks to the “babyboomers.” \nKenny Selcer is known for his sizzling blend of Americana folks\, rock\, roots\, and everything in between.  He will get your toe tapping\, brain thinking\, and maybe dancing in the aisle. Kenny is an engaging storyteller and inspired guitar player. Other musicians have described his recent LP as one that makes you feel good and contains a banquet of delicious sounds. \nRob Siegel is an innovative songwriter who draws from his idyllic yet stressed-out middle-class suburban existence and produces memorable\, intelligent\, well-crafted songs. His songs are fearless and truthful\, and connect with audiences because what’s deeply personal is often universal.  Rob says: “Some folks who live and breathe traditional folk music think I’m too wordy and too metaphor- and reference-heavy. What I try to be is challenging – somewhere between William Faulkner and Robin Williams. I don’t like songs that aren’t memorable\, and I try not to write them myself.” \nErin Ash Sullivan is a Massachusetts-based folk singer-songwriter who loves a good storytelling song. In 2021 she released her debut solo album\, We Can Hear Each Other\, which reached #10 on the FAI DJ Chart. In 2022\, she has been a Grassy Hill Emerging Artist at the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival\, the recipient of the Mark Erelli Judge’s Choice Award in the New England Songwriting Competition\, and a Songwriter Serenade Semifinalist. Victor Infante of the Worcester Telegram & Gazette describes her music as “delicate and evocative” with songs full of “nuance and emotional resonance.” \nAdmission to  this special Linden Tree concert  is a suggested $10 donation\, cash or check at the door.  Please reserve your seats by calling 781-246-2836. Masks recommended but not required.  Bottled beverages and wrapped snacks are currently available. \nOur previous streaming shows\, including October’s Squeezebox Stompers\, are still available for viewing on our YouTube and Facebook pages linked from our home page: www.LindenTreeCoffeehouse.org \nThe Linden Tree Coffeehouse operates\, in part\, with thanks to partial support from Wakefield’s Arts Council of the Massachusetts Cultural Council.

SUMMARY:The Heather Pierson Trio — Rachel Marie opens
DESCRIPTION:Advance tickets are $15 for adults and $5 for those age 18 and under. Visit oldslooppresents.org\, John Tarr Store in Rockport\, or The Bookstore of Gloucester. The suggested contribution at the door is $20 for adults\, $5 for those age 18 and under\, and $40 for families. \nPianist\, singer/songwriter\, song leader\, and performer Heather Pierson will bring her trio to Old Sloop Presents Saturday\, January 7. The performance will be in the handicap-accessible Fellowship Hall of the First Congregational Church of Rockport\, 12 School St. at 7:30pm. Boston singer-songwriter Rachel Marie will open the show. \nHeather Pierson’s music delves into Americana\, blues\, New Orleans jazz\, vocal chants\, instrumental piano\, and folk. Best known for her ease at the piano and her bell-tone vocals\, her songs and musicianship embody joy\, honesty\, playfulness\, and a desire to share from the heart. Defying genre and classification and yet fully embracing all musical styles\, Heather is an artist who speaks the language of music in as many dialects as her considerable abilities will allow. \nOpener Rachel Marie follows in a tradition of unapologetically forthright women folksingers. The social awareness of folk meets the introspection of the singer-songwriter tradition with a moderate dose of snark.

SUMMARY:First Church Friday Folk Coffeehouse Presents Gloucester Hornpipe and Clog Society on January 20th!
DESCRIPTION:Friday Folk Coffeehouse at First Church Dedham\n670 High Street\, Dedham\, MA\n(781) 326-7463\nContact: Geoff Tegnell \nFirst Church Friday Folk Coffeehouse presents its fourth concert of the 2022-2023 season featuring the Gloucester Hornpipe and Clog Society in the Parish Hall at First Church and Parish Dedham\, 670 High Street\, Dedham on Friday\, January 20\, 2023 at 7:30 pm in the Auditorium. There will be refreshments for purchase. Tickets are $10 available online at Folk Coffeehouse | dedhamuu and at the door.  Doors open at 7:00 pm. \nThe Gloucester Hornpipe and Clog Society has been delighting audiences in New England for over forty years with Celtic\, maritime\, French Canadian\, and original songs and tunes.  The band’s repertoire especially features American Colonial-era tunes\, sing-along sea chanteys\, and original songs of colorful people and places from New England’s rich history. From ragtime to oldtime\, the band’s rollicking\, friendly style is fun for all ages. Nancy Koch plays accordion and guitar. She also sings boldly of pirates and other seagoing rascals\, yet creates lovely vocal harmonies on gorgeous\, slow ballads. Ben Bruno is on fiddle and guitar. He picked up the fiddle and hung up his electric guitar after discovering a love for traditional fiddle music. He has an insatiable thirst for learning new tunes and styles.  Linda Abrams has been playing melodic claw hammer banjo for over 40 years. Despite growing up listening to Pete Seeger and Earl Scruggs\, she ventured into playing the music of Ireland\, France and Quebec. Band co-founder David “Doc” Rosen is master of the age-old delights of the bodhrán (an Irish drum)\, spoons and bones. He also plays an unusual instrument that never fails to intrigue: the pogocello. From the traditions of the Swedish “Devil’s fiddle\,” eastern European polka percussion sticks\, and 18th and 19th century shipboard Fufu bands\, the pogocello is a mix of rhythm instrument and pogo-stick. It is not to be missed!  You’ll be inspired to tap your toes and sing along! \nFirst Church and Parish Dedham Unitarian Universalist was first gathered in 1638 and is located in Dedham Center at 670 High Street. Its lively music program includes church choir at Sunday services\, the Parish Players theater troupe\, and the Concerts at First Church concert series\, in addition to our Friday Folk Coffeehouses.

SUMMARY:Harvey Reid and Joyce Andersen\, live at the linden tree coffeehouse
DESCRIPTION: Linden Tree Coffeehouse presents: Harvey Reid and Joyce Anderson in Person! \nFebruary 4\, 2023  at 7:30 pm.     $20 (cash or check at the door\, under 13 $10) \n The Linden Tree Coffeehouse continues its 38th season of live performances with the return of long-time area favorites: Harvey Reid and Joyce Anderson on Saturday\, February 4th at 7:30 pm. In the social hall of the Unitarian-Universalist Church\, 326 Main St. Wakefield\, MA. \nJoyce Andersen and Harvey Reid have combined their talents to create one of the most potent duo teams in acoustic music. They are both gifted instrumentalists\, strong and versatile singers\, and prolific songwriters\, and are comfortable in a dizzying array of styles of roots and Americana music. They jump from showstopping Celtic jigs and old-time fiddle tunes to house-shaking blues rockers\, soaring gospel duets\, and achingly beautiful ballads. Reid’s legendary acoustic and slide guitar work make a perfect backdrop for Andersen’s powerful fiddling\, and they take turns on lead and harmony vocals to showcase a large and interesting repertoire of original\, traditional and contemporary music. They have brought audiences to their feet at folk & bluegrass festivals\, clubs\, coffeehouses and concert halls across the US and in Europe\, and have released 32 highly-acclaimed albums of music between them. \nAfter 35 years as a full-time performer\, Harvey Reid is a familiar name to acoustic music fans every- where\, for his peerless stringed instrument work\, pro- found composing and songwriting\, lively stage shows\, and his in-depth knowledge of traditional music. Raised in the music-rich DC area\, in the 1970’s he played street fiddle\, as well as guitar\, mandolin and dobro in a number of blue- grass and old-time bands before moving to New England and embarking on a solo career in 1979. Reid won the Beanblossom flatpicking contest in 1976\, the National Fingerpicking award in 1981 and the International autoharp contest in 1982\, and has shared the stage with most of the great pickers of today. His “Solo Guitar Sketchbook” was included in Guitar Player Magazine’s Top 20 acoustic guitar CD’s\, and “Steel Drivin’ Man” was the only recording of the last 25 years chosen by Acoustic Guitar Magazine in  its Top 10 Folk CD’s Of All Time list. He also has released the only recording ever devoted entirely to the 6-string banjo\, and may be the best autoharp player performing today. Reid has released 17 solo albums to great critical acclaim\, exploring traditional as well as his own brand of modern roots music. \nJoyce Andersen is a greatly talented and versatile fiddler\, songwriter and singer from New Hampshire who has recently stepped out as a solo artist. She spent over 10 years in New England\, New York and Nashville\, playing in numerous bluegrass\, swing\, Celtic and country bands\, taking her from the club and festival circuit all the way to Carnegie Hall and The Conan O’Brien Show (with Marshall Crenshaw) In Sept 2003 she released her 2nd solo CD\, “Right Where I Should Be” which garnered a great deal of national attention. The Boston Globe called her “…an exciting young fiddler-singer with precocious traditional savvy and street-smart contemporary sensibility” and she has received significant national radio airplay as an emerging artist. She can trade licks with the hottest bluegrass or jazz pickers\, tear the house down with a blood-curdling Appalachian-voodoo fiddle & vocal duet\, melt you with a Billie Holiday torch song\, dash off a flawless set of Swedish fiddle tunes\, or hypnotize you with one of her haunting guitar songs. \nHarvey Reid & Joyce Andersen form a rare and versatile musical partnership\, combining the best of American virtuoso instrumental work with razor-sharp harmony singing and a captivating stage presence. They take to the stage with a rich and varied songbag\, an arsenal of stringed instruments\, and a deeply-satisfying emotional purity\, with a fresh northern New England sensibility\, free from showbiz and pretense. \nTickets for those attending are $20\,  cash or check at the door.  Please reserve your seats by calling 781-246-2836. Mask wearing is optional to protect the band\, volunteers & audience members. \nThe Linden Tree Coffeehouse operates\, in part\, with thanks to partial support from Wakefield’s Arts Council of the Massachusetts Cultural Council.

SUMMARY:Claudia Nygaard
DESCRIPTION:Unless the weather is unusually warm for early March (not impossible this winter) this concert will be indoors in the hosts’ living room with capacity limited to 30. The suggested contribution is $20\, payable by cash\, check\, or Venmo at the door. Send an email to whalecoveproductions@gmail.com for information about how to attend. \nClaudia Nygaard is a mesmerizing storyteller and a cinematic lyricist who writes songs that are heartfelt\, humorous\, scrappy\, and sensual\, And she does so with a daredevil’s vulnerability and a complete lack of self-censorship. Nygaard\, with her powerful\, resonant\, and deeply emotive amber honey voice\, is a master at putting a tear in your eye with a song that breaks your heart\, and then with a quick wit and an outlandish sense of humor\, she’ll replace it with tears of laughter. \nBuilding on the craft she learned while a staff songwriter on Nashville’s Music Row\, she has won numerous awards including the prestigious Kerrville Folk Festival Songwriting Competition\, and with the title cut of her latest album “Lucky Girl”\, the Tumbleweed Music Festival Songwriting Competition. “Lucky Girl” charted at #3 on the Folk Alliance Radio song chart and #5 on the album chart\, and gave her a significant debut on the Americana chart. It also received impressive reviews from the press. Legendary folk music magazine “Sing Out” claimed the songs “rival the likes of Guy Clark or Ian Tyson”.

SUMMARY:Heather Maloney in Concert
DESCRIPTION:The New Revival Coffeehouse will present renowned vocalist Heather Maloney at a live concert on Saturday\, March 4 at 7:30 p.m. \nThe Massachusetts-based “writer song-singer” found music in the midst of three years at a meditation center\, honing a sound moored in days of silent reflection and reverence for storytellers like Joni\, Rilke\, Ken Burns\, and the anonymous authors of Zen parables.  \nAnd while she eventually traded the quiet\, structured life as a yogi for the kinetic life a touring musician\, the core of her songwriting remains centered around the same curiosity about our inner world and the desire to articulate it through storytelling. \nHeather has toured nationally as a headliner as well as in support of acts like Lake Street Dive\, Shakey Graves\, Gary Clark Jr.\, Colin Hay\, Mary Chapin Carpenter\, and many more. The New York Times called her music “utterly gorgeous\, visceral” and SPIN Magazine described her as “stunning\, breathy\, and starkly memorable.” \nAfter over 1\,000 live shows and more than a decade of touring\, Heather Maloney released her first live album\, “No Shortcuts-Live at the Academy” in June. Recorded with a soaring string quartet\, No Shortcuts is a recording of the interaction\, presence and joy that only unfolds in real time\, when real live music and real live people share a real live space together. \nAs well as a songwriter and performer\, Heather is an illustrator and linocut artist who carves and prints visual representations of her songs on a variety of mediums. She considers the integration of music and art to be an inspiring new chapter as a creative person. \nThe New Revival Coffeehouse is at First Parish Church of Stow and Acton\, 353 Great Road in Stow MA 01775.  Tickets are $17 in advance at eventbrite.com and $20 the day of the concert. Doors open at 7:00 p.m. and the concert begins at 7:30.  Masks are optional. \nFor more information\, see heathermaloney.com \n  \n
