SUMMARY:Marquise Knox and Seth Walker
DESCRIPTION:The Next Stage Bandwagon Summer Series presents a twin bill pairing Marquise Knox and Seth Walker for a double dose of deep blues\, roots\, and rhythm. \nBorn in St. Louis\, Missouri\, Marquise Knox hails from a musical family deeply rooted in the Blues. He learned to play guitar from his grandmother Lillie\, and also played with his uncle Clifford\, who was a major influence in Marquise’s life. For Marquise\, Blues is his heritage and a way of life. He spent his early teenage years in St. Louis mentoring under the late great Blues legend\, NEA Heritage Fellowship recipient\, and Grammy Award winner Henry James Townsend. Marquise’s talents have earned him performing rights with some of America’s most notable blues performers\, including blues legends B.B. King\, Pinetop Perkins\, and David “Honeyboy” Edwards (the latter two also NEA Heritage Fellows). He has performed at dozens of festivals\, and toured throughout Europe. \nKnox’s debut album MANCHILD was nominated for a Blues Music Award for Best New Artist Debut. The album was recorded when he was 16\, with world-renowned guitarist Michael Burks and his band.  \nOver the last decade\, Seth Walker has become recognized as one of the most revered Americana artists in the United States; a three dimensional talent who combines a gift for melody and lyric alongside a rich\, Gospel-drenched\, Southern-inflected voice with a true blue knack for getting around on the guitar. \nThe Bandwagon Summer Series is a family-friendly outdoor cultural performance series running from early May through mid-October\, at venues throughout Windham County. \nCo-presented with Vermont Blues Society

SUMMARY:Roots & Americana Music Festival: Featuring The Mammals\, Corner House\, and The New Domestics
DESCRIPTION:Next Stage Arts at Cooper Field invites you to bring lawn chairs or blankets for outdoor seating on the ballfield. Rain date for the concert is Monday\, May 30.  \nThe Mammals are a warm-blooded party band with a conscience that spans the horizons of Americana music\, from soulfully harmonized indie-folk ballads to revved up fiddle and banjo-driven foot stompers. Led by songwriting multi-instrumentalists Mike Merenda and Ruth Ungar\, the stringband of subversive acoustic traditionalists features a mix of sassy blues\, Motown soul\, old-timey harmonies\, rock-n-roll energy\, and inspired\, political songwriting. \nWoodstock\, NY-based Ruth Ungar and Mike Merenda founded The Mammals with Tao Rodriguez-Seeger (grandson of the legendary folk singer Pete Seeger) in 2000\, and after touring the world for the next seven years with the likes of Arlo Guthrie and Pete Seeger\, emerged as one of acoustic America’s most revered musical duos – Mike + Ruthy. The daughter of fiddle legend Jay Ungar and country singer Lyn Hardy\, Ruthy is an earthy country- blues singer with the unmistakable stage presence of a natural-born performer. Mike is an artfully prolific songwriter with an indie rock soul and feather-touch vocals. Together they create music to heal hearts and rouse minds. \nOriginally from Boston\, MA\, Corner House takes its name from the place where the four young band members found musical family in one another – their shared home in Brighton\, as students at Berklee College of Music. Emerging from varied genre backgrounds\, the quartet’s unique strength is their desire to learn from one another\, not only in musical skill and style\, but in life experience. \nGuitarist and songwriter Michelle Cummings Kostek and mandolinist Ed Kostek are the indie folk/rock duo The New Domestics. Melding musical influences that range from traditional jazz to Radiohead and Nickel Creek\, they feature soaring vocal arrangements and carefully crafted songs.

SUMMARY:Next Stage Arts\, The Big Takeover
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the the New York band\, “The Big Takeover”\, as part of the Bandwagon Summer Series starting at 5:00 p.m. at the Putney Inn; Pete Muller & The Kindred Souls Open. Led by the powerhouse Jamaican-born singer and songwriter NeeNee Rushie\, The Big Takeover’s horn-powered global blend reveals deep fluency in reggae and world music\, hints of soul and Motown\, and their own infectious brand of pop classicism. Pete Muller is a problem solver. Whether he’s\nwriting songs for his critically acclaimed albums\, revolutionizing the way Wall Street works through applied mathematics\, or crafting crosswords for the New York Times and Washington Post\, the hyper-talented renaissance man always seems to have his eye on unlocking some deeper level of understanding\, on reaching some higher plane of enlightenment. The Bandwagon Summer Series is a family-friendly outdoor cultural performance series running from early May through\nmid-October.
