SUMMARY:Catie Curtis
DESCRIPTION:About Catie \nFor over 25 years\, Catie toured full-time as a singer/songwriter in the US and Europe\, releasing 14 recordings and selling over 250\,000 CDs (not to mention streaming and downloads). She has recorded her acoustic folk-rock tunes for major (EMI Guardian) and independent (Rykodisc\, Vanguard and Compass) labels\, collaborating with some of the finest musicians and producers in the country. Her songs have been featured in several films and multiple tv shows\, and she performed several times at the White House during the Obama administration. Her audience knows she’s not afraid to speak up about political issues and to stand up for the LGBTQ community. She’s intensely grateful for those years on the road\, and honored to know that her music has been an integral part of so many people’s lives. \nIn 2017\, Catie explored a desire to work locally rather than spending so much time on the road. She got a master’s degree in counseling and is now a psychotherapist in Newburyport\, MA. She seeks a balance between her work as a therapist and an artist. “I still need and want to create music. Writing is still how I make sense of my life and the world around me. I still love getting out to play shows and connect with people.” Fortunately\, it’s important to her fans\, too.

DESCRIPTION:Over the last couple years we have tried a lot of things on our open mic stage. In Season 42\, we held workshops for developing musicians. in Season 43\, we invited hosts of other open mics around the state to feature on our stage. We trained new sound engineers only to forgo all the tech. It’s now musicians and audiences in a room together – a room designed for music to flow and flourish. \nEd Dean returns as our open mic host\, opening the doors to The Music Mansion. It’s a welcoming environment for beginners\, new artists\, and veteran local musicians.

SUMMARY:Kim Moberg and Jenna Nicholls
DESCRIPTION:“Kim Moberg has created a project that features not only her lovely voice but a songwriting style that can easily transition from the gentle Americana-tinged ballads to thoughtful protest songs. Above Ground is well worth a listen!” \n-Joe Pszonek Radio Nowhere | Joltin Joe Pszonek Finnegan’s Wake \nIn a tapestry of sound\, Jenna Nicholls weaves a spell: strumming her ukulele with the spirit of New Orleans or crooning a cowboy’s tale with the soul of the West. Her melodies\, like vintage vinyl spun anew\, carry the weight of memory and promise of tomorrow. With three albums under her belt\, her songs have found their way into the heart of cinema and the pulse of television. On the road she’s shared stages with legends like Ingrid Michaelson\, and Oscar winner Glen Hansard. From the storied stages of Carnegie Hall and the Beacon Theatre\, Jenna’s music echoes through the night\, a testament to the enduring power of song.

SUMMARY:Monica Rizzio - Jan. 17\, 2026
DESCRIPTION:A bonfire on a beach. A couple of days with the one you love. Simply doing…nothing. The little joys in life. Americana singer-songwriter Monica Rizzio’s new album\, Sunshine Is Free\, is all about the simple things that make it all worth it. The concept for Sunshine Is Free was born on the road\, as Rizzio spent time under open skies while touring. Realizing she needed to step outside of a New England winter to write the follow-up to 2016’s Washashore Cowgirl\, Rizzio spent the fall of 2018 traveling from her home in Cape Cod to Nashville for writing sessions. Over a week in April at Skinny Elephant Recording\, she and producer Michael Rinne (Caroline Spence\, Erin Rae & The Meanwhiles\, Kelsey Waldon) as well as a stacked lineup of guest musicians including Mindy Smith\, Maya de Vitry\, Gwen Sebastian\, Joe Pisapia\, Will Kimbrough\, and Eamon McLoughlin\, Rizzio created a collection that focuses on finding joy in simpler things and looking for the silver lining of difficult situations. \nTitle track “Sunshine Is Free” is an upbeat number\, expanded by an infectious bass line and a rollicking banjo. The Boot says the song is “a reminder of the beautiful\, happiness-inducing parts of life\, from the free to the pricey\, the minuscule to the massive.” “Nothin’” romanticizes a perfect day without a to-do list\, spent reading Hemingway and sipping on a glass of wine. Billboard noted the track’s “delicate acoustic guitar\, steady percussion\, soaring electric guitar parts and warm vocals.” The upbeat rocker “Story of My New Year” showcases Rizzio’s versatility as a singer and declares that as a new year rolls in\, the future is boundless. Wide Open Country shined an early spotlight on “My Sweet Heart\,” a love song advising a younger self whose heart is aching. \nRizzio collaborated with longtime friend Mindy Smith for the first time on “While With You\,” with PopMatters noting that the “love song [sinks] into its soothing groove early\, with beautiful mandolin-driven instrumentation filling the spaces between the layered serenity of Rizzio and Smith’s vocal performance.” Featuring a Jerry Garcia-esque electric guitar\, “The Shire” perfectly captures the ethos of The Berkshires in Western Massachusetts\, where it was written. Growing up in a small town in East Texas\, Rizzio did what many people do in such settings: she learned to sing gospel hymns in church and received an education in classic country music\, listening to Willie Nelson\, Buck Owens\, Connie Francis and Dolly Parton. “Don’t Keep Me Up Waiting” is a waltz inspired by years of endlessly spinning Willie Nelson’s Red Headed Stranger album\, premiered by The Bluegrass Situation. “Little Bit of Truth” centers around an eye-opening 30 days during Washashore Cowgirl’s album release tour\, which found her reconciling evangelical childhood lessons with her current beliefs. On “Sunday” she examines the intricacies of a relationship gone wrong — the track focuses on her faith and how that’s changed since she was a child. \nThroughout Sunshine Is Free\, it’s clear Rizzio has a keen ability to connect; her songs are often autobiographical\, yet delivered through a fictional approach that creates a universal experience for the listener — whether expressed using her trademark sense of humor or with such striking honesty that the pain in her voice is tangible. \n“Left with no choice to go my own way\, out here looking for a little bit of truth\,” she sings\, and you can bet she’ll be happy to share the lessons she’s learned soon.

SUMMARY:Fiddler\, singer and songwriter Kathleen Parks
DESCRIPTION:Kathleen Parks is a fiddler\, singer\, and songwriter who brings joyful and creative energy to the stage and studio. \nHer writing leans toward Pop\, Folk\, and classic Jazz\, while her virtuosic fiddle blends and reimagines traditional and modern musical styles with boundless groove\, and a playful improvisational spirit. \nHer deep grounding in Celtic and American roots music blends with her love for pop songwriting\, funk rhythms\, soulful vocals\, and groove-based improvisation\, making every performance unexpected yet familiar: a musical journey from beginning to end. \nFor Kathleen\, music is not about perfection\, but feeling.   This is what has always driven her to write\, sing\, and play. Without feeling\, why play music? Music is a means to express and release our emotions. Understand the feeling\, move the energy\, and bring joy and healing in. Connection to yourself is key to playing\, to playing with others\, and moving an audience.
