We're
halfway through our 2024 series, and it couldn't be going any better.
We've had 110-150 appreciative good people in our audience at our first 3
concerts, giving as generously as they can to support live music, with
contributions of any size (via cash, check or Venmo) going to the most
excellent musicians and to the historic Meeting House (88 Lottery Rd)
here in Shrewsbury Center, Vermont.
NEXT UP: Phil Henry and the Newsfeed / July 12 6 pmSO
excited to have these guys right here in our own backyard. They've
played all over New England and beyond, and now we've got 'em in
Shrewsbury! | | | | | Phil Henry is a singer-songwriter
steeped in folk tradition, but not bound by it. Joined by Mitch Barron
and Jeff Kimball, we'll hear a treasure chest of relatable tunes about
both everyday, and extraordinary life, and backed by the Newsfeed on guitar, keys, mandolin, upright and fretless bass. Henry was recently honored as the 2023 Vermont Music Educator of the Year.
One reviewer wrote, "Phil
Henry is that rare contemporary folk artist who will impress you from
every direction. There's his sweet and strong voice, that intricate and
flawless guitar work, and songs so rich and sweeping you'll wish you
wrote them yourself".
Here's just one sample of Phil's music:Keep On Singing / Phil Henry and the Newsfeed.
