North Reading Community Coffeehouse – Performing Artist Series Featuring Rupert Wates with Dave Mason to Open

The North Reading Community Coffeehouse (NRCC) is thrilled to welcome back Rupert Wates.

With Covid hopefully in the read-view mirror, touring is slowly returning to some level of normal and Rupert is back out on the road touring. Over the past couple of years, Rupert has released several highly acclaimed CDs. – ‘Elegies’ (2023), ‘Instrumental’ (2023), ‘For The People’ (2022) and  ‘Lamentations’ (2020).  The NRCC is proud to be able to bring Rupert back to North Reading.  We hope you will join us in welcoming this world class musician.

Opening for Rupert is one of the finest singer-songwriters we have met in our virtual world, Dave Mason.  We are very much looking forward to meeting this wonderful performer in person for the first time as he comes to us from Scotland.   Dave writes about places he has seen, people he has met as well as issues he feels need highlighting.  Dave has played in folk clubs across the whole of Scotland, England, Wales, the US and South Africa.  He is also a plays and writes music for bagpipes!

The concert is free, but there will be a “Suggested Donation” of $20 if you are in a position to do so.  The important thing is join us if you can and do what we can to help keep live music alive!
