GARRISON DOLES, and ALASTAIR MOOCK

Garrison won our contest in May 2009. Read about the contest here. And Alastair has been described as sort of a modern day "Dust Bowl" troubadour with great songs and stories.

WELCOME

 

It will take us a while to recover from the spectacular show put on by Sarah Lee Guthrie and Johnny Irion. And a special appearance from their 7-year-old daughter Olivia certainly stole a few hearts. As Arlo's daughter and Woody's granddaughter, this Guthrie and her husband are making sure the family musical legacy continues into the new generation.

Next up is the modern "Dust Bowl" troubadour Alastair Moock along with Garrison Doles, the winner of our last season's Songwriter Competition. Then it's on to the last performance ever for the legendary New England bluegrass group Northern Lights (with several special guests), Nashville pickers and singers Barry and Holly Tashian, and the irrepressible fiddling and step dancing of Canadian superstar (and Canadian Grand Master Fiddle Champion) April Verch. Here's a tip: always come by 7:30 PM for the best choice of seating and to enjoy a homemade dessert and coffee.

Mac McLanahan,
Artistic Director
