Racky Thomas in addition to being a stalwart blues professional on vocals, guitar and harmonica is also well known as an interpreter of past artists – his delivery is authentic and powerful!
Racky has prepared a presentation of the songs of Townes Van Zant and some particularly faithful renditions of Taj Mahal classics which are masterful!
This is truly a “Not to be missed show” that well represents our Club mission of “back to the roots”.
Racky is well known throughout New England and performs regularly in clubs and at major concert venues. He’s Berkeley trained but the blues and folk is ingrained in his soul … come out and discover why he is so popular and enjoy a night of wonderful interpretation that has won him a loyal and ardent following.

Clear-eyed and tough-minded, songwriter/playwright Katie Dahl is known for her smart songs, wry wit, and wise spirit. A small-town celebrity on the Wisconsin peninsula, Katie is also an internationally touring, radio-charting artist who “delivers razor-sharp lyrics with a hearty, soulful voice” (American Songwriter).
In live shows that are both courageously honest and devilishly funny, Katie dives deep into questions of land and love, family and body image, grief and joy. “In unsettled times,” says Peter Mulvey, “Katie Dahl brings us a grounded spirit.”
Opening for Katie will be MICAH JOHN. She is returning to Harmony on the Green after delighting folks last spring when she joined Antje Duvekot. Micah is a Boston-based multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, and singer-songwriter. She plays American Roots Music of several types. Her range includes Old Time songs and tunes, Bluegrass, Folk, Country, and Americana.
An award winning fiddler, Micah has won many fiddle competitions. She has been fortunate to study fiddle with several amazing teachers, including Bronwyn, Bobby Britt, and Bruce Molsky. A graduate of Berklee City Music High School, Micah also plays and studies guitar, and can contribute to a song on mandolin, bass, and clawhammer banjo as well.
The North Reading Community Coffeehouse (NRCC) is happy to welcome “Loose Change” featuring Gary Dolinsky, Dominic Priolo and Larry Plitt.
While they are each outstanding musicians in their own right, they complement each other beautifully.
The Loose Change Trio performs songs that spans several generations creating a unique and pleasing mix of old and new!
Their songbook includes classic country, blues, Motown, pop music, folk, bluegrass, and even a few “standards”. They are three distinct voices accompanied on acoustic and electric guitar, harmonica and ukulele bass. They are three seasoned performers who have played on stages large and small throughout the Northeast since the 1970’s.
A Loose Change performance is always fun!
