North Reading Community Coffeehouse – Performing Artist Series Featuring “Loose Change”

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!

The concert is free, but there will be a “Suggested Donation” of $15, 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!

Harmony on the Green presents Kemp Harris, joined by Adam O. Lydia Harrell opens.

Kemp Harris is a composer, musician, author, actor, and teacher. Born in North Carolina, he taught himself piano and was writing songs at age 14. His album, entitled Edenton, looks back to his roots and features The Holmes Brothers. Kemp has shared the stage with Taj Mahal, Gil Scott-Heron, and Koko Taylor. He has written and performed original compositions for the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater and WGBH public television.

Adam Osgood is a harp player and spoken word artist who draws his influences from Blues tradition and Beat Poetry. He is comfortable in genres ranging from Folk to Funk and has been playing blues harp since he was 14 years old.

Kemp and Adam met on Star Island, NH in 1985 and have been making music together ever since. Their unique blend of piano, vocals and harmonica is a captivating mixture of seasoned blues, folk and roots influences. It never gets old with these two. They’ve been at it for 38 years and it keeps getting better and better.

Lydia Harrell is one of Boston’s musical treasures. Her sultry, soulful voice and evocative songwriting have garnered her the attention and respect of the nation’s finest musicians and venues. Jazz and soul is where her heart is; however, Harrell has shown an unbreakable ability to mold herself into any musical situation. Be it performing with the Boston Pops, serenading NBA fans with America’s national anthem, or lending her vocal talents to chart-topping deep house singles by British record label Reel People Music, Harrell’s dedication to extracting the pure essence of a song is unmatched.
