Fridays on Prouty Concert - June 19, 2020 - 7:30 pm with The Crane Wives
Initially part of the indie folk boom, their sound has evolved with each new recording till categorization becomes difficult. Is it rock, pop, folk? Just call it really good music. This multi award-winning group features Emilee Petersmark as lead vocalist, Kate Pillsbury on guitar and banjo, Ben Zito on bass (and occasional howls) and Dan Rickabus on drums. If you love life, fear, hope, pain, and the occasional natural disaster, this band, you’ll love this group!

Lucky Lemonade Concert - July 21, 2020 - 7:30 pm with RJ Cowdery
RJ Cowdery is an exceptional modern folk musician whose focus is the little things in life that make us think, laugh, cry and feel. Much like the Midwestern Ohio landscape she calls home, her songs are tales of being in the midst of life. She plays guitar with a hard driving finger-picking style with a deep bass line. Cowdery has made a name for herself at folk festivals across the county, winning multiple awards. Craig Havighurst of Music City Roots says of RJ Cowdery, "… it's obvious how outstanding (she) is - musically/sonically/lyrically... Revelatory."
