The Dream Journal – June 2021
Hello!
After more than a year of singing into a computer screen, we’ve recently had both a live in-person concert and a jam session with friends. Oh, how we have missed both! To be able to look into the eyes of our audience, to sing directly to them and have them sing along… To sing multi-part harmony and throw in a bit of bass or harmonica or banjo on a friend’s song… Wonderful! And when you add in all the hugs we got, that just made it even more special. We’ll still be doing online shows, but it’s so nice to be able to play live again.
We’re joined for our Midweek Song Swap this Wednesday, June 2nd by the duo Friction Farm (Aidan Quinn and Christine Stay). This husband and wife team combine storytelling, social commentary, and humor to create songs of everyday life, local heroes, and quirky observations. Music starts at 7:30pm Eastern on our Facebook page and YouTube channel.
If you’re in the Peterborough, NH area around midday on Thursday, June 24th, join us from noon to 1 in Depot Park (12 Depot Street) for Listen & Lunch! Bring a picnic, a blanket or folding chair, and we’ll serenade you through your lunch break. There’s ample free parking, and easy access. If it rains, the show will be cancelled.
The Serendipity Songwriter Showcase will be back in July, most likely still online. Stop by the Serendipity Cafe in Maynard, MA, get yourself some tasty takeout, and tell Laura and Johnny we said hi!
