SUMMARY:Howlin' at the Moon
DESCRIPTION:The Howlin’ at the Moon Concert Series showcases regional bluegrass\, Americana\, folk\, indie\, and more. We’re honored to host this authentic musical experience for both audience and musicians. Music traditions are meant to be fluid and evolving — this concert series nurtures regional musical talent while providing opportunities for cross-pollination and to share musical ideas\, all in a 1760 Dutch Barn that inspires and reminds us of our place within history. The shows begin at 7pm\, admission is $7\, and refreshments are available. \nSince 2009 Albany’s Lost Radio Rounders have been one of upstate New York’s premiere Acoustic Americana duos\, and now they are presenting their many themed programs to private audiences as a trio\, and an exciting mix of American Roots classics to public audiences as a quartet. Tom and Michael have welcomed new arrivals Paul Jossman on banjo\, and Evan Conway on bass. Tom Lindsay and Michael Eck have been lauded for their work keeping the legacy of American folk music alive\, with the Daily Gazette’s Michael Hochanadel calling them\, “versatile and deep;” Times Union music blogger Andrew Gregory dubbing them\, “absolute professionals with huge talent;” and Nippertown correspondent Cheryl Jenks stating\, “Their knowledge\, love and passion for old-time American music is evident in every part of their performance.” \nLocated in New York’s Capital Region\, Everest Rising is a tightly-knit quintet influenced by bluegrass\, Americana\, rock\, jazz and more. Together they create progressive acoustic music that is unique\, powerful\, and comfortably familiar. With a wide dynamic range\, Everest Rising’s material spans from heartfelt laments to all out jams\, all executed with instrumental finesse and thoughtful story-telling. As this year’s host of the Howlin’ at the Moon Concert Series\, Everest Rising aims to support an authentic musical experience for both audience and musicians. Music traditions are meant to be fluid and evolving — this concert series nurtures local and regional musical talent while providing opportunities for cross-pollination of musical ideas\, all in an authentic setting that inspires and reminds us of our place within history. \n\n\n
