SUMMARY:Slaid Cleaves
DESCRIPTION:“A master storyteller\, one influenced not by the shine of pop-culture but by the dirt of real life.” – Joseph Hudak\n— Rolling Stone Country \n3/3/23 Slaid Cleaves releases his latest album\, TOGETHER THROUGH THE DARK. \nTwelve new songs amid the 100\,000 that get uploaded to Spotify every day (according to hypebot.com). Will any of them rise above the din enough to be heard? So far\, a few of them have been hanging out with the likes of young Americana superstars Charlie Crocket and Margo Price on the Americana Music Association album and singles charts\, as well as the popular Spotify playlist\, The Pulse of Americana. \nIt’s Cleaves’ second release on Candy House Media\, which consists of himself and his wife and manager\, Karen Cleaves\, with hired gun Angela Backstrom promoting to Americana radio. It’s one of the rare self-releases on the charts\, and the early success of the first few singles is a testament to the consistent quality of Cleaves’ output over the past 25 years\, and to the bond he’s built and maintained with the dedicated music lovers at Americana radio since its inception in the mid 1990s. \nSlaid teamed up with producer Scrappy Jud Newcomb for the third time in early 2022 to record a new batch of songs\, Slaid’s first in five years. Familiar themes of struggle and resilience will be a surprise to no one. TOGETHER THROUGH THE DARK digs into the crucial moments and experiences that shape our journeys. A kind word when it’s needed most\, the effort to act honorably in dark and violent times\, the wisdom of a barfly\, the majesty of rock and roll\, the dignity of work and the enduring grace provided by true love. \nAs Scrappy puts it\, “This album speaks to the hopeful\, the hard working\, the battered\, confused\, and the sad. But above all to the believers in the city of freedom that we heard in the stories of our youth and all those FM radio hits.” \nTOGETHER THROUGH THE DARK \nmore info: slaidcleavesbooking@gmail.com\nMore bio at slaid.com/bio \nOriginally hailing from Maine\, this now Austin songwriter might as well have been born in the lone state. Slaid Cleaves has the Austin style songwriting reminiscent of Joe Ely or Townes Van Zandt\, but a style and sound all his own. He sits permanently and high on the top of our favorite songwriters list. \nAmericana/folk stalwart Slaid Cleaves has been putting out highly acclaimed records for 25 years now\, consistently delivering songs that strike people’s hearts and become part of their lives. Together Through the Dark is no different. Producer Scrappy Jud Newcomb and Cleaves teamed up for the third time in early 2022 between Covid surges to record a new batch of songs\, Slaid’s first in five years. Familiar themes of struggle and resilience will be a surprise to no one. As Scrappy puts it\, “This album speaks to the hopeful\, the hard working\, the battered\, confused\, and the sad. But above all to the believers in the city of freedom that we heard in the stories of our youth and all those FM radio hits.” Watch for single releases to radio and streaming services in early 2023 in anticipation of a March 3rd worldwide album release.

SUMMARY:Cheryl Wheeler/Kenny White
DESCRIPTION:We are very excited to be able to reschedule a concert with Cheryl Wheeler and Kenny White. Let’s all come out and support her return to Peterborough. \nCheryl Wheeler \n“Cheryl Wheeler has to be seen to be appreciated. Nothing you read and nothing you hear from her albums prepares you for how good a performer she is. \n“If your idea of a folk singer/songwriter concert is a bunch of people clapping politely after songs\, and then sitting quietly while the performer says things like “This next song is about …”\, well\, you’ve never seen a Cheryl Wheeler concert before.  ” \n“Cheryl’s songs are often emotional portraits of people\, leaving you with the impression that you know the characters. You find yourself being dragged into the song rather than standing outside and observing. Other songs by Cheryl are hilarious situation comedies. \n“You may not be familiar with Cheryl\, but you have probably heard her music. She is very respected as a songwriter by her peers\, which can be seen by how many of them record her songs. Chery’s songs have been covered by artists as diverse as Dan Seals\, Peter Paul and Mary\, Kenny Loggins\, Garth Brooks\, Suzy Boggus\, Melanie\, Bette Midler\, Maura O’Connell\, Sylvia\, Kathy Mattea\, and Holly Near. If they think she is great\, then you owe it to yourself to learn more if you aren’t familiar with her. \n“From her albums you can tell that she is a gifted songwriter with a beautiful voice. From other people’s comments about her you can learn that she is a natural story teller with a fantastic sense of humor. But until you see her in person\, you never really believe what you’ve been told about her. Besides\, almost half of the songs she does during her shows haven’t been recorded!” \nCheryl’s concerts are more like what you would find at a comedy club than expect to find at a folk music concert. “She will tell a story that has you rolling in the aisles\, and then sing a song that leaves you wiping tears from your eyes. She will talk about some serious current event\, and then sing a song that will have you howling with laughter. Her entire concert is an emotional roller coaster.” \nhttp://www.cherylwheeler.com/home/bio.html \nKenny White \n“I’d have to say that Kenny White has earned a place among my favorite singer/songwriters … and particularly\, lyricists.  As we say in the trade ‘he goes deep.’   A true wordsmith AND musician who reveals a fine sense of humor\, as well. Put on your headphones and listen carefully.” \n…David Crosby \n“Kenny White is a quadruple threat – a singer\, songwriter\, pianist and producer with a knack for summing-up the human condition in half a song verse or less. (Take the lyrics “So you might as well put it on the line once in awhile\, Maybe leave something more than ashes in a pile\,” from his song “Five Girls.” Need we say more?”

SUMMARY:Saturday October 14th - An Evening with Ladies of Folk | $22
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Beth Barron.\n\nAllysen Callery is an internationally touring musician from Bristol\, Rhode Island. A self-taught artist\, she draws comparisons to Sandy Denny & Nick Drake. Winner of Favorite Folk Act in RI 2023\, and 2022 for Motif magazine.\n\nProvidence-based singer/songwriter Jane Hesser (a.k.a. Ground Weather) plays a gritty combination of soul-inspired indie and earthy\, wholehearted folk. She is half of the band LIGHTS OUT\, with John Kolodij. On occasion\, she can also be found playing with her daughters\, in The Understory and Freddy.\nMary Pierce\, Singer/Songwriter and recording artist of Celtic/Folk/American music shares her original and inspiring music through her 5 albums. Mary has been inspired by many Irish and American Folk artists and her passion for writing can be heard throughout her music. Mary started writing music 12 years ago after a visit to Ireland. She would often bring her songs to her sister\, Margi Gianquinto (pianist and harmonist)\, and the two would begin the journey together of adding harmonies and instrumentation to the songs. Mary and Margi have a unique sister vocal blend that has captivated audiences in Portsmouth\, Newport\, Narragansett\, Jamestown\, Maine\, and CT and they recorded the first album of originals together called ‘Miles Away’.\n\nSinger\, songwriter\, and guitarist Michelle Saylors\, was born in Tennessee\, where she grew up on a farm. Bluegrass\, country\, and gospel music were always part of life. Michelle began piano lessons around age 10. She is self-taught on guitar and mandolin and played mostly bluegrass music while in Tennessee. Living in Rhode Island since 2008\, Michelle found her voice by taking time in solitude: to write\, create\, and play music that reflects her early musical inspirations and keeps her true to who she is as an artist. Her songwriting is rooted in the space between small-town Tennessee and coastal New England. She is currently recording her first full-length album.\n\nJen Long’s father has a word for musicians: scallywags. Jen is delighted to have become one at last! Don’t tell her dad\, but she sings and plays guitar with SwampBirds\, a Providence based Americana-ish group for which she has written several songs – some of which they even play. Jen has also improvised vocals with the Providence band Cardboard Cannons\, sang for a decade with the Assembly of Light Choir\, and has organized many shows including four Love Hangovers. She especially loves writing melodies to other peoples’ poems. A designer by profession\, and artist to the core\, Jen is the creative and often obsessive energy behind The Whale Guitar\, a custom electric guitar inspired by Melville’s tale of an obsessive quest\, “Moby-Dick”. Jen has personally lugged this “instrument of change” to hundreds of guitarists to play and sign in an obsessive campaign to amplify the need for ocean protection and climate justice. Jen is grateful for the opportunity to play today for you but is starting to obsess over this bio\, so her therapist says she has to turn it in now as is. Thank you.

SUMMARY:Steve Turner House Concert
DESCRIPTION:Reservations are required: send email to HouseConcerts@fssgb.org.  Address (in Newton) will be provided when you make your reservation.  $20 at the door (cash) – $5 for students. \nSteve Turner is known as a pioneer of highly sophisticated English concertina song accompaniments\, stretching the boundaries of traditional forms\, with one of the best voices in the business. He is a multi-instrumentalist\, who also accompanies himself on the cittern\, and also plays mandolin and tenor banjo. \nSteve began his career on the Manchester\, UK folk scene at the end of the ‘60s\, with the Geordie band “Canny Fettle”\, touring with them for eight years and making two albums with them. \nIn 1979 he won the UK Melody Maker’s national “Stars of the 80s” competition\, which persuaded him to turn professional\, and for the next 12 years he toured solo\, nationally and internationally\, releasing four albums with Fellside Records during this period (Out Stack\, Jigging One Now\, Eclogue and Braiding). \nAfter 13 years away from the folk scene he made a welcome return in 2004 performing in folk clubs and festivals\, and in 2008 producing his 5th album\, the highly acclaimed “Whirligig of Time” which featured UK luminaries Martin Carthy\, Nancy Kerr and Miranda Sykes. \nSince then he has released further albums\, “Rim of the Wheel” \, “Spirit of the Game” and “Late Cut”\, and his latest much anticipated 9th album “Curious Times” featuring Martin Carthy will be released in Spring 2023. \nCheck the website\, www.fssgb.org\, or email info@fssgb.org\, if you have any questions.

SUMMARY:Rani Arbo and Daisy Mahem
DESCRIPTION:Rani Arbo and Daisy Mahyem were the PFM’s first concert in Bass Hall so many years ago. A sold out show. Don’t miss this long time in coming return concert. \n\n\n  \n…some of the most soul-lifting songs you’ll hear in your life…\npure magic happens when these four musicians play together. No Depression \n“Rani Arbo & daisy mayhem dig deep into their collective souls\, finding joy in the moment\, peace in the harmonies\, and rapture in the rhythmic drive.” — Hartford Courant \nHarmony\, rhythm\, indelible songs – these are the hallmarks of Rani Arbo & daisy mayhem\, the New England based folk quartet now in its 17th year. From the Newport Folk Festival to the California World Music Festival and beyond\, this band’s steadfast brew of wit\, camaraderie\, and musicality leaves audiences everywhere humming and hopeful\, spirits renewed. \nRani Arbo & Daisy Mayhem are Rani Arbo (fiddle\, guitar)\, Andrew Kinsey (bass\, banjo\, ukulele)\, Anand Nayak (electric and acoustic guitars) and Scott Kessel (percussion). At the helm\, Arbo is “blessed with an unmistakable voice\, both light and sultry\, with a hint of tremolo and smoke” (Acoustic Guitar). With Kinsey and Nayak’s vibrant baritones and Kessel’s resonant bass\, the band’s signature lockstep harmonies can shake the rafters or hush the room. Arbo’s fiddle is sweet and sinewy\, while Nayak’s guitar stretches across genre lines. Kinsey’s old- time bass anchors the deep groove of Kessel’s homemade percussion kit — a truly funky collection of cardboard boxes\, tin cans\, caulk tubes\, packing-tape tambourines\, bottle-cap rattles\, Mongolian jaw harps\, and a vinyl suitcase. \n\n\n\n\n\nmuch more at: https://www.raniarbo.com/

SUMMARY:Aaron Nathans and Michael Ronstadt
DESCRIPTION:Aaron Nathans and Michael Ronstadt Sunday 9/10/2023 Sun 2PM potluck at 1PM.\nsee nathansandronstadt.com for more information. \nRSVP to info at lakeviewhouseconcerts dot org to reserve a seat. You must get an invitation email from me to attend.\nCall 508 528 0026 for questions leave a message. \n  \n$15-$25 suggested donation in the tip jar but payment is optional. 100% of the donations go directly to the artists. There are no  tickets\, but please RSVP so I know how many will be here.\n \nWe will be doing our potluck again at 1PM\, show starts at 2PM.\n\n\n\n​Cello-guitar songwriting duo Aaron Nathans & Michael G. Ronstadt never lose their capacity to surprise. This progressive folk act combines uninhibited musical creativity and mastery with accessible story songs and an oddball sense of humor. Audiences will see and hear things done with a cello they never thought possible\, meandering stories as captivating as the music\, and hook-filled story songs that you’ll remember long after the lights come up. Guitarist/vocalist Nathans\, from the Philadelphia area\, is an award-winning leader in the Philly songwriting community. Cellist/vocalist Ronstadt\, nephew of Linda Ronstadt\, is a Cincinnati-based cello bandleader\, teacher\, touring artist\, and much in-demand studio sideman. \nAs an acoustic duo\, the two create a compelling musical palate. Ronstadt’s cello lines are reminiscent of the live-layered magic of Zoe Keating\, and his songwriting reflects the creative diversity of Paul Simon. He weaves intricate patterns around Nathans’ baritone voice\, studied folk meters and dash of irony in the tradition of David Wilcox and Dar Williams.
