“A drift of New England based contemporary (yet traditional) folk…traditional, quiet and understated, though not without optimism and joy.”

- Americana UK

Dave Richardson is an observer. With his warm, expressive voice and his acoustic guitar, he invites listeners to experience snippets of life through his songs: a fragment of overheard conversation, the recollection of a feeling, a snapshot of an event. Dave’s songs reflect a unique point of view steeped in folk traditions and infused with an undeniably modern lyrical and musical sensibility. Dave will be joined by cellist Valerie Thompson. Valerie has toured nationally and internationally with ensembles that range from art-rock to chamber folk such as Laura Cortese & the Dance Cards, Long Time Courting, Fluttr Effect, and Goli.

Sam Mulligan is a rock singer and songwriter who specializes in silly lyrics, grungy guitars, and energetic gameboy beats. Based in Turners Falls, Massachusetts, he has been performing live with gameboys as his backing band since 2012. With an emphasis on equal parts positivity and absurdity, Sam's goal is to make you smile, but hey, it's your face and you should do what you want with it.

This show will feature a suggested donation of $5-10, with 100% of the money going to the performers.
