SUMMARY:Arctic Adventure - Winter Speaker Series
DESCRIPTION:Lowell’s Boat Shop Presents… \nArctic Adventure\n$15 / Non-Members \n$8 / Lowell’s Boat Shop Members \nPurchase Tickets\n\nSchooner Bowdoin and her crew\, Amesbury’s own Graham McKay among them\, were assigned the hopeful goal to take students to the Arctic Circle by June 20\, 2024 with planned stops in places such as Newfoundland and Greenland. Graham had a camera and drone on hand\, and brought back stories of cold and tricky passages to remote villages\, 24-hour daylight\, and the challenges of navigating iceberg-laden water on an historic boat built specifically for the task. Did they make it to the arctic circle in time?  \nGraham McKay is the Executive Director of Lowell’s Boat Shop in Amesbury\, Massachusetts\, where he is also their master boatbuilder. His experience on the water includes captaining tall ships\, commercial fishing\, and maritime archaeology. He’s a fun storyteller who knows how to spin a yarn\, and he’s excited to share his beautiful video and photography he captured while crewing to the Arctic on such a beloved and historic boat.  \nFounded in 1793\, Lowell’s Boat Shop is more than the birthplace of the iconic fishing dory—we are a living connection to our past and a safe harbor where curious minds and intrepid adventurers connect with each other and our collective history through woodworking classes\, apprenticeships\, youth programs\, rowing our fleet of boats on the Merrimack River\, and fun social events throughout the year. \nLowell’s Boat Shop \nPurchase Tickets\n\n  \n

SUMMARY:Cimarron 615
DESCRIPTION:The Firehouse Center for the Arts presents… \nCimarron 615\n  \n$55 / All Tickets \nPurchase Tickets\n\n  \nThe quartet — just releasing its second\, self-titled album — is a hall of fame-caliber assemblage\, with credits that look like a who’s-who of Americana\, country and rock history. “We’ve all been around a long time and done a lot of work — and a lot of it together\,” notes drummer Rick Lonow. “There’s history here.” \nWhere the four musicians intersect is via the famed country-rock band Poco. Lonow and Jack Sundrud were its longtime rhythm section until the band ceased when co-founder Rusty Young died in 2021. Michael Webb played in the band for eight years\, while Ronnie Guilbeau co-wrote Poco’s 1989 Top 20 single “Call It Love” with Lonow. Webb and Sundrud co-produced Poco’s All Fired Up album in 2013\, and Lonow\, Webb and Sundrud played on Young’s 2017 solo album\, Waitin’ For the Sun. \nThen there are the individual credits\, which include many path-crossings with each other over the years. Lonow’s discography includes albums for Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash\, Loretta Lynn\, Nanci Griffith\, “Cowboy” Jack Clement\, Ryan Bingham and many more\, has toured with the Bellamy Brothers\, and was part of the all-star Burrito Deluxe. Webb played on iconic albums by Chris Stapleton\, John Prine\, Mark Germino and others\, as well as hitting the road with John Fogerty and Hank Williams\, Jr.; he was also part of the all-star Brooklyn Cowboys. Sundrud played with Dickie Betts\, Vince Gill\, and Nicolette Larson\, and formed the group Great Plains. And Guilbeau — who\, like Sundrud\, worked in the California country-rock scene before moving to Nashville — was part of the bands Palomino Road and GYG. \nCimarron 615 came to be after Young’s death\, when Blue Elan Records chief Kirk Pasich organized a tribute concert and album and brought Sundrud\, Webb and Lonow together in Los Angeles as part of a house band for several projects – and heard the potential for more. Guilbeau rounded out the line-up in 2023. \n \nPurchase Tickets
