THURS 8/20  An Evening with Melanie and Country Joe McDonald has changed to... An Evening with Melanie special guests Sarah Lee Guthrie & Johnny Irion  FRI 8/21 at 8PMTickets: $65 (preferred seating with artist meet & greet) and $25 “Authentic.” “Timeless.” “Harmonious.” “Exhilarating.” Any or all of these adjectives could describe the folk-rock sound created by Sarah Lee Guthrie and Johnny Irion. The musical richness and psychological depth of their initial collaboration, Exploration, is irrefutable proof that the disarming granddaughter of Woody/daughter of Arlo and the prodigious South Carolinian quite naturally bring out the best in each other. |

 Richie Havens with special guest Meg Hutchinson
Meg Hutchinson is a lyric-based, contemporary, acoustic songwriter. Influences include poet Mary Oliver, songwriter Shawn Colvin, word slinger Greg Brown and mood maker David Gray. Originally from Great Barrington, MA, Hutchinson now lives in the Boston area. Although only 29, she has already won numerous songwriting awards in the US, Ireland and UK and recently signed with Red House Records to release Come Up Full. Come Up Full confirms that Hutchinson is one of the great voices of the next generation of acoustic musicians. It is a lyrically rich record about encountering good things when you least expect them. Amidst war, loss and heartbreak, Hutchinson’s songs hold the promise of love, hope and homecomings. In songs like “Ready,” “Home” and “Come Up Full” she sings about our universal ability to overcome life’s most trying times. With a poet’s sensibility, Hutchinson’s songs are laced with a weathered but unselfconscious optimism, a love of language and of the natural world.
