On May 1st, Jenn and I travelled to the Iron Horse Music Hall in Northampton, MA, to see Liz Carroll and John Doyle perform. Since I apparently didn’t ever get around to blogging about the last concert of theirs we went to, I don’t want to let this one get missed too just because [...]
Way back on April 27th, Jenn and I hitched a ride with our friend woj down into NYC to see Veda Hille at Joe’s Pub. It had been almost seven years since I’d last seen her play, when she performed her album Field Study (and showed the accompanying film) in woj and Meredith’s living [...]
Back on April 20th, Jenn and I were in the city for NY Comic Con, and we were therefore lucky enough to have the chance to catch Vienna Teng’s set at the Green Apple Festival in Central Park. She was on at noon, as the first act of the day, and there was definitely [...]
Last Saturday, Jenn and I headed up to Schenectady, NY to see Susan McKeown perform as part of the Eighth Step series of concerts presented at 440 Upstairs, part of the Proctors Theater complex.
I hadn’t seen Susan perform since her show last March at MassMoCA, and this time around it was going to [...]
After having seen Altan there just last week, Jenn and I travelled up to The Iron Horse Music Hall in Northampton, MA again last night, this time to catch a performance by the always amazing Lúnasa. You’d almost think that St. Patrick’s Day was coming up soon!
We were joined [...]
Back on Sunday, Jenn and I made the trip up to The Iron Horse Music Hall in Northampton, MA to see Altan perform. It was my first time seeing them play for a few years, and I’m glad to report that I think they may have been even better this time around than they [...]
On Monday night, Jenn and I grabbed some pizza before joining woj for the My Brightest Diamond show at The Space in Hamden, CT. It was the last show of MBD’s Eleven Fingered Tailor Tour, and playing at The Space was a sort of homecoming for Shara Worden, since she’d played the open mic [...]
Back on October 25th, Jennifer and I joined woj, Sarah, and her friend Jeff at the Iron Horse Music Hall in Northampton, MA, to see Vienna Teng perform. I was really looking forward to the show, and, as usual, Vienna didn’t disappoint. I’m terrible with set lists, and the fact that a couple [...]
On Saturday, after a great dinner at Pho Boston, Jenn and I drove across town to the University of Hartford for a Richard Shindell concert. Ever since I saw him open for Susan McKeown many years ago (maybe 1995?), Richard has been a favorite of mine, and pretty much the only male folk singer [...]
Last Wednesday, Jenn and I made the long drive down to the Watercolor Cafe in Larchmont, NY to see Vienna Teng perform. It had been a few months since we’d last had the chance to see Vienna play, so I was looking forward to having the chance to see another of her concerts in [...]
