SUMMARY:Session Americana
DESCRIPTION:Tickets:\nAdults; advance $18\, at-the-door $22. Students; $10 \nDoors open at 7pm. Show starts at 8pm. \nAll ages show. \nHailing from Boston\, Session Americana is a rock band in a tea cup\, or possibly a folk band in a whiskey bottle. This band/collective of talented musicians craft an musical experience unlike any other. On stage is a collapsible bar table wired with microphones\, a vintage suitcase recast as a kick drum\, an old Estey field organ\, a pre-war parlor guitar\, a mandocello and all of its smaller siblings\, a harmonica case fire damaged when Jack’s bar went up in flames and graffitied by Depeche Mode roadies\, and an assortment of other instruments that get passed around in this freewheeling modern hootenanny. The anything-could-happen feel of a Session show depends on craft that’s not accidental or easily won; they bring a kind of ease and genuineness to this timeless music\, sometimes presenting the latest batch of original songs\, sometimes reaching back into depths of the American “song bag”. \nBuy Tickets

SUMMARY:Sean Rowe
DESCRIPTION:Tickets:\nAdults; advance $18\, at-the-door $22. Students; $10 \nDoors open at 7pm. Show starts at 8pm. \nAll ages show. \nSinger-songwriter Sean Rowe’s powerful new album entitled New Lore\, undoubtedly focuses on both Rowe’s powerful voice and evocative lyrics. The result is a collection of affecting stories of desperation and resilience with Rowe’s voice beautifully augmented by flourishes of piano and a string section. New Lore was recorded in Memphis at the historic Sam Phillips Recording studio. \nRowe says of New Lore\, “This is a record about loneliness and a longing for connectedness. This yearning for a sense of home. Musically\, I think this record is more focused than any before. I’ve become really aware about what it is that I do well\, allowing my voice to come through and lyrically grab people with the stories. Those are kind of my superpowers. The instruments on the record never intrude on my voice and words.” \nBuy Tickets

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
