SUMMARY:Grain Thief on the Cape
DESCRIPTION:House of the Dog- Country and Bluegrass by Grain Thief\nJoin us on Sep 27\, 730pm for a performance by Boston quintet\, Grain Thief\, as they perform their newest work\, House of the Dog\, a masterful blend of country music and bluegrass.

SUMMARY:Andrew & Noah VanNorstrand w/ Chris Sartori
DESCRIPTION:over the past twenty years Andrew & Noah VanNorstrand have been bringing their brand of original folk music to festival stages\, concert halls\, dance floors and living rooms all over North America and beyond. \nAs teenagers\, they helped define a new generation of contra dance music with their family band The Great Bear Trio and even appeared on the nationally syndicated public radio program A Prairie Home Companion. \nSince then they’ve established themselves as virtuosic multi-instrumentalists and insightful songwriters\, drawing from a wide range of genres including Bluegrass and Appalachian\, Celtic and Quebecois\, Swing and Jazz. \nAndrew and Noah are often on tour with progressive folk roots band The Faux Paws but you can still occasionally catch them performing as a duo\, exploring their deep repertoire and love for American folk music.
