A rare evening of music with these fantastic musicians! Don’t miss them.
Patti Casey has performed at such elite levels of artistry for so many decades – songwriting, musicianship, performance, and social advocacy – that words like “acclaimed,” “magical,” and “transformative” only begin to capture the scope and reach of her talents. Through five majestic, award-winning albums, Patti has pioneered the creation of a unique New England genre of folk-storytelling-bluegrass whose signature sound has since been imitated yet remains unmatched.
Performing in national and international halls to rapt audiences, Patti sings with a subtlety, maturity, and restraint that belie her considerable pipes. Her love of bluegrass and other traditional genres allows her to reach deep into driving rhythms and soar into harmonies that aren’t easily forgotten. She was a founding member, songwriter, and lead singer for VT’s all-star Bluegrass Gospel Project and has toured nationally with Vermont’s venerable folk band The Woods Tea Company.
Colin McCaffrey is a native Vermonter, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and award-winning record producer who has worked on hundreds of regional recordings and live productions. Lending his smooth voice and string wizardry to some of the best music coming out of these hills, Colin McCaffrey is what the Burlington Free Press calls "A Green Mountain treasure worth unearthing."
Eric O’Hara is a North Country native and acclaimed pedal steel and dobro guitarist. He was Eric and Leigh Gibson’s first music teacher and has toured with The Gibson Brothers for many years. Eric plays many styles of music and regularly performs with other bands throughout the region.
