SUMMARY:VAE Presents\, "A Star Has Burnt My Eye" with Howard Fishman
DESCRIPTION:Photo Credit: Rebecca Greenfield \nFeaturing: Charlotte Mundy – Vocals\, Osei Essed – Guitar\, Banjo\, Mandolin & Upright Bass\, Dina Maccabee – Vocals\, Violin & Guitar\, Howard Fishman – Vocals\, Guitar & Piano\, and Nic Adams \nAt the Masonic Hall\, 504 Main Street\, Bennington \nDecember 12th 7:00 pm show\, doors at 6:00pm. \n$20 Advance\, $25 At the Door\, $10 Students \nIn 1961\, the polymathic songwriter Connie Converse grew disillusioned with music and New York\, packed her bags for Ann Arbor\, and eventually disappeared. Her home recordings from the 50s have only recently come to light—vulnerable\, literary songs about loneliness\, sexual longing\, and bad credit—but they were unclassifiable at the time and she vanished without an audience or album to her name. \n“A Star Has Burnt My Eye”\, is a multimedia meditation from songwriter and guitarist Howard Fishman. Three other musicians who perform and consider Converse’s music and life\, pondering what it meant\, and still means\, to be an outsider artist\, join Fishman. A treasure trove of recently discovered artifacts—personal letters\, diary entries\, poems\, along with first-person recollections—come to life alongside intimate performances on guitar\, piano\, violin and upright bass in tribute to this enigmatic songstress whose fate still eludes. \n“A Star Has Burnt My Eye” had its world premiere at The Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM) as part of the 2016 Next Wave Festival\, where it sold out its run and was a New York Times Critics Pick. \n  \nLink to the BAM production: \nhttp://www.bam.org/theater/2016/a-star-has-burnt-my-eye \nHoward’s New Yorker piece is here: \nhttp://http://www.newyorker.com/culture/culture-desk/connie-converses-time-has-come \nBuy Tickets

SUMMARY:Vermont Arts Exchange Presents ZUMIX!
DESCRIPTION:Free Downtown Concert\nMonday\, August 14 7:00pm\nFront Porch of Bennington Town Office Building ~ 205 South Street\nBring your own lawn chairs or picnic blankets. \nZUMIX’s songwriting and performance programs utilize music and\nwriting as tools for positive youth development and violence\nprevention. Songwriting and performance programs are designed to help\nyouth address the complex challenges of urban life in a positive way.\nThrough songwriting workshops\, participants develop critical\nthinking\, literacy\, and communication skills as they analyze\, write\,\nand discuss issues that affect their lives. These programs are\noffered through a social justice lens to actively engage youth in\nissues that are important to their lives and their communities. The\nobjective of these programs is to empower participants to give voice\nto their ideas and feelings. Through skits\, group discussion\, and\ncritique\, youth learn problem solving skills and mediation\, as well\nas the basics of rhythm\, poetic rhyme\, harmony\, and storytelling. \nThis year’s program features twelve performers ranging in age from\n13-18. Each day these kids travel to East Boston from areas\nscattered throughout Boston’s metropolitan area. Their dedication to\nthe program reflects their dedication to their music. Each\nparticipant in the program has been hard at work writing both\noriginal lyrics and music for each of their respective songs. Song\ngenres range from Hip-Hop to R&B to Rock and their messages range\nfrom freedom and equality to summer love. Performances are the\nculmination of the Street Program\, which provide each performer with\na forum in which to express their message in their style.\nPerformances build self-confidence and instill a sense of self-worth\,\nreminding the performers that they do indeed have something valuable\nto say through song. You can expect a high-energy family friendly\nperformance lasting one hour plus. \nContact Vermont Arts Exchange For More Information\n802-442-5549 ~ infovae@comcast.net

SUMMARY:Special VAE Summer Concert - The Show Ponies with openers Hale Mountain Pickers
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, August 12\nMasonic Hall\, 504 Main Street\, Bennington\nDoors open at 7pm\nHale Mountain Pickers begin at 7:30\nShow Ponies on at 8:00\nAdults $15\, Students $10.  Available at the door only \nThe Indie-Folk band SHOW PONIES take the stage bringing you Old Time bluegrass with a twist. From California\, on an East Coast tour\,the Show Ponies weave story and song with the same charm\, pathos\, and boldness that brought them from Texas and Arkansas to California. Kim Ruehl\, of FolkAlley states\, “They pull together pieces of old time Appalachian folk with strong harmonies and rhythms to create a bouncy\, fervent energy that’s starting to make waves.”Lead vocalist\, banjo player and founding member Andi Carder grew up\, like so many iconic American voices over the generations\, singing in church. She performed in musical theater—musical heritage often\, which became apparent in performing what she\, likes to call “folk sassgrass.” David Maine from Pop Matters” quotes “ The Show Ponies are a West Coast-based bluegrass/old-timey band who\, at their best\, embody all the raw energy and enthusiasm inherent in the genre\, fortified with on-target lyrics and a refreshingly modern sensibility.”

SUMMARY:First Friday - Main Street Music Series - The Jeff McCrae Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Four musicians take to the stage presenting old school jazz in a manner that exemplifies the musical synergy that takes places when artists get together. VAE Director Matthew Perry says “This energy that happens onstage is most times not rehearsed\, sometimes explosive and other times\, smooth as silk\, always moving…to be in the audience allows you to be one with the experience\, the creation.”  What makes this iteration of the Jeff McRae Quartet unique is the presence of three percussionists.  Darryl Kniffen on piano\, Jay Sager on the marimba\, and Jeff McRae on drums bring an uncanny rhythmic communication to their playing.  Add in local stalwart\, Dave Cuite on bass\, and what you get is an evening of risk taking and spontaneity in the context of familiar and not-so-familiar jazz tunes spanning the 1950s-1970s\, jazz’s most dynamic and fruitful era.  Jeff McRae states “The performance aims to pull back the covers of the finished and well-mannered concert experience to expose how live jazz is made. \nAll Tickets at the door only: $10 adults\, $5 students \nMasonic Hall\n504 Main Street\nAll tickets $10 at the door

SUMMARY:Wild Reeds with opener Will Mosheim and Friends
DESCRIPTION:Tickets:\nStudents\, advance $10\, at-the-door $12\nAdults\, advance $18\, at-the-door $22 \nDoors open at 7pm.  Show starts at 8pm. \nThe Wild Reeds can be defined by one word: Harmony. However\, the music is nearly indefinable. The sound from this LA based band fronted by Kinsey Lee\, Mackenzie Howe and Sharon Silva dips in and out of multiple genres – some etherial folk\, a hint of country twang and some rock and roll rhythm (from Nick Jones and Nick Phakpiseth)\, but it all comes back to the root of this band’s power: the fact that Lee\, Howe and Silva harmonize like triplets separated at birth. \nIn the past year\, the Los Angeles based band supported such acts as Noah Gundersen\, Langhorne Slim\, Della Mae\, Spirit Family Reunion and Israel Nash and they’ve made appearances at Way Over Yonder Festival\, Outside Lands\, Echo Park Rising\, Claremont Folk Festival\, and Lightning in a Bottle. \nThe Wild Reeds released their formal debut album “Blind and Brave\,” in August 2014 at The Troubadour in West Hollywood. The album\, produced by Raymond Richards at Red Rockets Glare Studios (Local Natives\, Parson Redheads\, Honey Honey\, Dustbowl Revival)\, expounds on loss\, love\, growing up\, and the experience of artists and workers alike pursuing their dreams. \nA year out from the “Blind and Brave” release finds The Wild Reeds crafting new material for their second release in Los Angeles and touring the country with stops at the AMA Festival in Nashville in September\, The Bluegrass Situation Festival at the Greek Theater in LA and the CMJ festival in New York in October. \nBuy Tickets

SUMMARY:The Citizens
DESCRIPTION:Tickets:\nStudents\, advance $10\, at-the-door $12\nAdults\, advance $18\, at-the-door $22 \nDoors open at 7pm.  Show starts at 8pm. \n“The Citizens shouldn’t be missed! It’s easy to say that this band or that band is the best new thing to hit the streets\, but in the case of this NYC quintet it would be impossible not to sing the members’ praises. Fans of any sort of quirky pop or rock should get their hands on Post Cro-Magnon Drift immediately and let the bliss-out begin.”\n				-Jenn O’Donnell\, DOA \n“Mark Lesseraux can sing his ass off and he isn’t afraid to do it” – Pitchfork\, Joe Tangari \nThe Citizens are a four piece band from New York City that began playing together in early 2003. Known for their impressive dynamic range\, the Citizens’ songs vary from British-influenced rock to quiet\, sometimes experimental pieces that play with the boundaries of traditional song forms.  Some of the groups influences include:  The Beatles\, The Smiths\, Big Star\, Sly and The Family Stone\, Velvet Underground and The Pretenders. \nThe band’s Oregon spawned rhythm section consists of Jason DiMatteo (Valerie June\, Chocolate Genius\, Burnt Sugar) on bass and John Bollinger (Antony and The Johnsons\, Sway Machinery\, Barbez)on drums. Jason and John have known each other since grade school. With a background together in rock\, r&b and jazz\, they provide a solid\, time-honed core for the band’s music. \nThom Loubet is the band’s guitarist. Thom is a versatile player with a knack for texture who can easily move from aggressive to delicate playing styles.  Thom has played with some of the New York scene’s most prominent musicians such as Alice Smith\, Tamar-Kali\, Burnt Sugar\, and Nu Afrika. \nThe group’s lead singer\, lyricist and keyboard player is Mark Lesseraux. Mark is known for his dramatic live performances and considerable vocal ability. Mark was the lead singer of the psych/pop trio Lazy Susan in 1999/2000. He has recorded two solo CDs and one other collaborative CD with the NY multi-cultural collective Earthdriver. \nSonically and lyrically\, the Citizens’ music is both inviting and challenging. Employing a unique variety of themes\, moods and melodies\, they manage to produce consistently captivating and original “Avant Rock.” \nBuy Tickets
