SUMMARY:Hey Mavis - This show is SOLD OUT!
DESCRIPTION:February 7th – Hey Mavis \nFor more than thirteen years\, Northcoast Americana band Hey Mavis has built a loyal following with heartfelt vocals\, thoughtful songwriting\, expressive fiddle and banjo work\, and an easy onstage chemistry that reflects years of making music together. \nThe group was formed by banjoist and songwriter Laurie Michelle Caner and fiddler Eddie Caner while serving as artists-in-residence in Cuyahoga Valley National Park. They were soon discovered by producer Don Dixon (R.E.M.\, The Smithereens\, Red Clay Ramblers)\, who went on to produce their first two albums — both reaching the Top 10 on the national Folk DJ-L charts and earning praise from critics around the world. \nTheir third release was produced by Adam Aijala of Yonder Mountain String Band and includes a title track co-written with Chuck Auerbach of The Black Keys. Their fourth album\, Silver Ribbon Dream — Songs & Stories of the Ohio & Erie Canal\, was funded by the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation and has been described as “unconventionally beautiful” and “startlingly original.” Hey Mavis has shared this work across the East and Midwest\, including performances with several symphony orchestras. \nGeneral Admission – 28.00 \nJoin us at 7pm for refreshments before the show in our new addition!\nDoors to the concert Hall open at 7:30pm\nMusic at 8pm

SUMMARY:Jerron Paxton and Dennis Lichtman
DESCRIPTION:February 26th – Jerron Paxton and Dennis Lichtman  \nJerron Paxton and Dennis Lichtman– multi-instrumentalists and vocalists whose formal musical partnership began with a video shoot\, Just Cross the River From Queens\, at the Louis Armstrong House Museum in 2017. Paxton and Lichtman recently released their first full-length duo recording. The duo were Artists-In-Residence at NYC’s Symphony Space for the 2024-25 season and have toured the US and internationally together since 2019. \nSmithsonian Folkways recording artist Paxton presents Black folk music from nearly all the idioms that entails: stride piano jazz from New Orleans to New York; deep blues on guitar and harmonica; rural music from the beginnings of Black arrival in America played on fiddle and\nbanjo; ragtime; and other turn-of-the-century-music that gives the full breadth of pre-WWII Black music without lecturing\, but rather inviting you to enjoy that music as it was given to him. Paxton transports his audiences not to a time\, but to a state of mind that allows them to enjoy and internalize Black folk music\, as has been the American experience for centuries. \nLichtman is a world-traveling bandleader who is best known for running the famed trad-jazz jam sessions at Mona’s Bar in New York City since 2007\, which was described in the Wall Street Journal as “ground zero for an emerging late-night scene of young traditional jazz and swing players.” He is a masterful multi-instrumentalist (clarinet\, mandolin\, violin\, and more) who has toured and recorded with David Byrne\, The Lovestruck Balladeers\, Pokey LaFarge\, Ghost Train Orchestra\, Jim Kweskin\, and his own projects: The Brain Cloud\, Mona’s Hot Four\,\nand his newest all-original album Secret Workshop. \nPaxton and Lichtman’s mutual love of the history\, stories\, and significance behind the music they play is apparent as they romp through an energetic and engaging set of acoustic blues\, ragtime\, Tin Pan Alley pop songs\, 1920s jazz\, twin fiddle hoe-downs\, and original songs and compositions. \nGeneral Admission :25.00\nJoin us in the bar area before the show at 7pm\nConcert Hall doors open at 7:30pm\nMusic at 8pm
