Join us for a family-friendly outdoor folk concert as part of our Summer SOLSTICE event.
Opener: STONEFACE MOUNTAIN. A young bluegrass band from the Boston area who share a common love of music. Their hard-driving Bluegrass sound is influenced by legends such as Flatt & Scruggs, Ricky Skaggs, and Bill Monroe. Stoneface Mountain has been astounding crowds at many popular New England venues for the past five years, such as the Thomas Point Beach Bluegrass Festival, Podunk Bluegrass Festival, Ossipee Valley Bluegrass Festival, Club Passim, and others. They are the emerging future of Bluegrass music.
Headliner: IRA KLEIN (MAC 2022-2023 Artist-in-Residence), KEVIN BARRY, and HAZEL ROYER. You may remember this trio of musician friends from a concert on Bigelow Lawn in September 2022. We liked them so much, we just had to bring them back!
Ira Klein is an award-winning interdisciplinary guitarist, composer, producer, and educator from Jerusalem, Israel. Performing and recording extensively in New England and beyond, Ira aspires to create deeply rooted, fresh, and idiosyncratic contemporary music.
Kevin Barry is a professional guitarist who has toured and recorded with some of the biggest names in the industry, including Mary Chapin Carpenter, Emmylou Harris, Rosanne Cash, and Ray Lamontagne, among others. He has performed with Jackson Browne, Rob Thomas, Sara Mclachlan, Bonnie Rait, and many other national acts.
Hazel Royer is a Boston-based upright bassist, guitarist, and singer. She plays a variety of styles including folk, bluegrass, old-time, rock, and blues. Hazel grew up playing folk and bluegrass music in the Boston music scene with her father, Eric Royer.
The concert will take place in Hazel Dell. You are permitted to bring a blanket or a low chair. No picnicking allowed.
