Amy Gallatin and The Hot Flashes Holiday Show

Gladys E. Kelly Public Library 2 Lake St, Webster, MA

The Hot Flash Holiday concerts are lively high-energy shows laced with powerful harmonies, coupled with captivating on-stage camaraderie--a merry mix of upbeat, fun and familiar songs paired with more contemplative quiet music. The numbers range from the pensive "Mary Did You Know" to the paean to homecoming "I'll Be There with Bells On" to an in-costume version of "Christmas Island"--something for everyone. The show provides a welcome respite from the holiday rush, providing simple moments to treasure and a chance to slow down and savor the season.  Take a moment to relax and enjoy a truly unique holiday event.

Bluegrass Tuesdays at Lily P’s Fried Chicken & Oysters

Lily P's Fried Chicken & Oysters 50 Binney St., Cambridge, MA

Bluegrass Tuesdays began in Central Square in Cambridge in September of 1993 and has since grown to host regional and national artists on stage and serve as a weekly gathering place for the local bluegrass community. For 27 years, Tuesday Night Bluegrass at The Cantab Lounge was hosted by Geoff Bartley, about whom reviewer Nate Dow wrote, “If Massachusetts were ever to appoint a Folk Laureate, the honor would have to go to the one and only Geoff Bartley." Geoff welcomed nationally-known bluegrass artists to the stage such as Dale Ann Bradley, Tony Trischka, Darol Anger, David Grier, Missy Raines, Jim Hurst, Chris Jones, Molly Tuttle, and the late James King. Bluegrass Tuesdays have also been a place where many bluegrass musicians have met and “cut their teeth”, including members of The Infamous Stringdusters, Crooked Still, Della Mae, The Gibson Brothers, The Steep Canyon Rangers, Frank Solivan & Dirty Kitchen, The Po' Ramblin' Boys, Mile Twelve, and Joy Kills Sorrow. Bluegrass Tuesdays are now hosted by Tony Watt and held at chef Chris Parsons' restaurant Lily P's Fried Chicken & Oysters in Kendall Square in Cambridge.
