SUMMARY:An Evening with Tom Rush
DESCRIPTION:The Firehouse Center for the Arts presents… \nAn Evening with Tom Rush\n  \nAll Tickets | $55 \nPurchase Tickets\n\nTom Rush is a gifted musician and performer\, whose shows offer a musical celebration…a journey into the tradition and spectrum of what music has been\, can be\, and will become. His distinctive guitar style\, wry humor and warm\, expressive voice have made him both a legend and a lure to audiences around the world. His shows are filled with the rib-aching laughter of terrific story-telling\, the sweet melancholy of ballads and the passion of gritty blues \nRush’s impact on the American music scene has been profound. He helped shape the folk revival in the ’60s and the renaissance of the ’80s and ’90s\, his music having left its stamp on generations of artists. James Taylor told Rolling Stone\, “Tom was not only one of my early heroes\, but also one of my main influences.” Country music star Garth Brooks has credited Rush with being one of his top five musical influences. Rush has long championed emerging artists. His early recordings introduced the world to the work of Joni Mitchell\, Jackson Browne and James Taylor\, and in more recent years his Club 47 concerts have brought artists such as Nanci Griffith and Shawn Colvin to wider audiences when they were just beginning to build their own reputations. \nTom Rush began his musical career in the early ’60s playing the Boston-area clubs while a Harvard student. The Club 47 was the flagship of the coffee house fleet\, and he was soon holding down a weekly spot there\, learning from the legendary artists who came to play\, honing his skills and growing into his talent. He had released two albums by the time he graduated. \nRush displayed then\, as he does today\, an uncanny knack for finding wonderful songs\, and writing his own – many of which have become classics re-interpreted by new generations.\n(It is testimony to the universality of his appeal that his songs have been folk hits\, country hits\, heavy metal and rap hits.) Signed by Elektra in 1965\, Rush made three albums for them\, culminating in The Circle Game\, which\, according to Rolling Stone\, ushered in the singer/songwriter era. \nIn the early ’70s\, folk turned to folk-rock\, and Rush\, ever adaptable\, saw more room to stretch out. Recording now for Columbia\, he toured tirelessly with a five man band\, playing concerts across the country. Endless promotional tours\, interviews\, television appearances\, and recording sessions added up to five very successful but exhausting years\, after which Tom decided to take a break and “recharge” his creative side at his New Hampshire farm. \nRush returned with a splash in 1981\, selling out Boston’s prestigious Symphony Hall in advance. Time off had not only rekindled Rush’s love of music\, it had re-ignited music audiences’ love of Rush. \nHe instinctively knew that his listeners were interested in both the old and the new\, and set out to create a musical forum like the Club 47 of the early sixties to allow artists and newcomers to share the same stage. In 1982\, he tried it out at Symphony Hall. The show was such a hit it became an annual event\, growing to fill two\, then three nights\, and the Club 47 series was born. Crafting concerts that combined well known artists such as Bonnie Raitt or Emmylou Harris with (then) unknowns like Alison Krauss or Mark O’ Connor\, Rush took the show on the road. From the ’80s to the present day\, Club 47 events have filled the nation’s finest halls to rave reviews\, and have been broadcast as national specials on PBS and NPR. \nIn 1999\, Columbia/Legacy released a Tom Rush retrospective album that covers his recorded musical history from 1962 to the present\, including tracks recorded for Columbia\, Elektra\, Prestige and his independent years. Entitled “The Very Best of Tom Rush: No Regrets”\, the 17-track compilation includes as a bonus a brand new Tom Rush composition\, “River Song\,” which features vocal contributions from Grammy winners Shawn Colvin and Marc Cohn. \nA live CD\, “Trolling for Owls” released in 2003 and published by Tom’s NIGHTLIGHT RECORDINGS\, captures Tom’s complete performance and includes\, for the first time\, some of the spoken stories that have endeared him to audiences. \n“How I Play (some of) My Favorite Songs”\, a DVD released in 2005 by Homespun Tapes. It shows how he plays ten of the memorable songs and guitar arrangements that have long made him one of America’s most beloved performers. \nIn 2009\, Tom recorded his first studio CD in 35 years. Recorded in Nashville\, “What I Know” was produced by Tom’s long-time friend Jim Rooney and includes original Tom Rush material\, as well as harmonies by Emmylou Harris\, Bonnie Bramlett and Nanci Griffith. \nToday\, Tom Rush lives in New Hampshire when he’s not touring. His voice has grown even richer and more melodic with training\, and his music\, like a fine wine\, has matured and ripened in the blending of traditional and modern influences. He’s doing what he loves\, and what audiences love him for: writing and playing …passionately\, tenderly…knitting together the musical traditions and talents of our times  \n  \n \nPurchase Tickets

SUMMARY:Between the Mountain and the Sky - A Film Screening
DESCRIPTION:The Firehouse Center for the Arts presents… \nBetween the Mountain and the Sky\nA Film Screening\n  \nPurchase Tickets\n\nFrom the Duplass Brothers\, Between the Mountain and the Sky follows CNN Hero Maggie Doyne and Top Malla over twenty years as they build a home that becomes a family to more than fifty orphaned children in Nepal. At the height of this journey\, an unimaginable loss shatters everything\, and the filmmaker steps from behind the camera—deepening the story into a meditation on grief\, resilience\, and the power of love to heal. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nThrough a mix of raw home videos and vérité footage captured through a lens of love\, the film reaches a rare level of intimacy — resisting staged interviews\, makeup\, and talking heads to reveal something far more human. It offers an unfiltered look at compassion that runs deeper than headlines and heroism\, revealing a raw portrait of motherhood\, loss\, and the quiet courage to keep going.Honest\, soul-baring\, and deeply human\, it reminds us that healing begins the moment we stop pretending we’re unbreakable. \n\n“Maggie has the courage to act for good when she sees a need and the conscience to use her privilege to empower others. She is a heart warrior of the first order.” Cheryl Strayed #1 New York Times bestselling author of “Wild.”

SUMMARY:Alisa Amador
DESCRIPTION:‘The Firehouse Center for the Arts presents… \nAlisa Amador\nTickets starting at $27 \nPurchase Tickets\n\n  \nPraised by NPR’s Bob Boilen as a “powerful voice whose tender performance commands attention and fosters connection\,” Alisa Amador made history in 2022 with the first-ever Spanish language song to win the prestigious Tiny Desk Contest. Now\, the bilingual singer/songwriter is formally introducing herself with her stunning full-length debut\, Multitudes. Recorded with co-producers Tyler Chester and Daniel Radin\, the album is a bold\, captivating self-portrait\, one that serves not only as a testament to how far Amador has come (she’s earned dates with everyone from Hozier and Brandi Carlile to Lake Street Dive and Maggie Rogers) but also as a celebration of where she comes from (her roots span Puerto Rico\, New Mexico\, Argentina\, and New England). Slipping effortlessly between Spanish and English and featuring appearances from Gaby Moreno\, Madison Cunningham\, and Quinn Christopherson\, the collection is raw and vulnerable\, at once steeped in devastating loss and uncertainty\, but also laced with the hope and resilience of a young woman learning to find her voice and stand her ground. Certainly\, Multitudes is a beautiful record—the way Amador’s crystalline voice cuts through the album’s lush synthesizers\, dreamy guitars\, and cinematic string arrangements is nothing short of spellbinding—but more than that\, it’s a fierce work of discovery and affirmation\, a profound\, revelatory meditation on triumph and loss\, endings and beginnings\, identity and belonging. \n  \n \nPurchase Tickets

SUMMARY:Bailey's Mistake
DESCRIPTION:The Firehouse Center for the Arts presents… \nBailey’s Mistake\nTickets starting at $20 \nPurchase Tickets\n\n  \nBailey’s Mistake is a Celtic-American\, four-piece folk band from Maine. The group mixes traditional music from Ireland\, Scotland and Newfoundland with brand new songs about contemporary life in New England. Bailey’s Mistake’s pulsing sound is driven by bass\, drums and guitar and topped off with hearty vocal harmonies and thrilling bagpipe and whistle tunes. Bailey’s Mistake is made up of four seasoned musicians who all went to the same rural high school in Maine — aptly named Bonny Eagle. Collectively\, they have about 110 years of touring musical experience. Troy R. Bennett plays guitar\, sings soulful lead and pens most of the band’s original songs. Travis Cote learned to play the bagpipes at 10 and thrills audiences with his rhythmic\, majestic sound. Dean Clegg is the band’s inventive percussionist and oversees all technical aspects of every show. Rob Babson plays bass\, sings delicate harmonies and is the band’s musical leader. The band takes its name from a legend told for generations along the Maine coast. In the 19th century\, there was a certain ship captain named Bailey. He was trying to guide his vessel safely around West Quoddy Head Lighthouse and into Lubec Harbor. Unfortunately\, it was a foggy night and he missed. Instead of safe harbor\, Bailey ran aground in a shallow\, rocky inlet just south of the lighthouse. What’s more\, rather than face the ship’s furious owners in Boston\, Bailey and his crew unloaded their load of lumber\, dismantled their vessel\, built houses in the cove and settled down with several local ladies. To this day\, on most good maps\, that little harbor is simply labeled “Bailey’s Mistake.” \n  \n  \n \n  \n  \nPurchase Tickets\n\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n
