SUMMARY:An Evening with Peter Yarrow
DESCRIPTION:Come join Peter Yarrow as he personally guides us with commentary & live performance – from beloved anthems to selections from 13 never-before-recorded songs – through highlights of the brand new documentary\, “50 Years with Peter\, Paul and Mary” including DVD “extras” that will not be broadcast on any upcoming TV airings.\nThe celebration culminates in a reception signing of their handsome\, moving new coffee table book chronicling the iconic trio’s epic journey of uplifting music and powerful activism that – as US Secretary of State John F. Kerry writes in his foreword –  defined a generation\, leaving a legacy that lives on today. \nWhen Peter\, Paul and Mary performed If I Had a Hammer and Blowin’ in the Wind at the 1963 March on Washington\, “It changed the way we saw the world…and our role in it.” Beginning in 1962 with their first chart-busting album\, and after 5 Grammies\, 13 Top 40 Hits\, 5 PBS TV specials\, 8 gold and 5 platinum albums – Peter Yarrow\, Noel Paul Stookey and Mary Travers have touched the hearts and conscience of millions the world over. \n“They challenged the nation and the world to speak out against the enemies of the age – racism\, poverty\, insane militarism\, the institutions of greed and injustice.  And they did it onstage – in their words and their in their songs\, in their personal lives\, and together.  We could sure use a little more of them these days!” – Arlo Guthrie \n“Peter\, Paul And Mary: Fifty Years in Music and Life.” On every page of this lushly illustrated new coffee-table book\, what Peter\, Paul and Mary stood for comes alive for the first time and in their own words\, through rare and remarkable images and evocative text. Drawn from interviews and personal writings\, the narrative merges each artist’s perspectives\, reflecting their unified commitment in music as in activism.  Peter\, Paul and Mary takes readers not only backstage but deep into the group’s most cherished beliefs and passions.  \nTickets are $25  for Members of FMSH or CAC  /  $30  Public  – Includes Book-Signing Reception.

In addition to his work as a recording artist and concert performer\, Chapin has acted on Broadway\, as well as working extensively in films\, television and radio. \nAs a music-maker\, Chapin has maintained two long and productive parallel careers\, both as a highly respected contemporary folk artist and as a pioneer in the field of children’s music. In the\nformer role\, Chapin has established a reputation for insightful\, heartfelt songcraft and effortlessly charismatic live performances. In the latter\, he continues to engage the hearts\, minds and imaginations of young listeners with witty\, life-affirming original songs delivered in a sophisticated array of musical styles. In either format\, Chapin’s infectious songs\, sterling musicianship and personal warmth consistently shine through\, whether he’s performing on record or in a concert hall\,\nan outdoor festival\, a school\, in front of a symphony orchestra or in an intimate coffeehouse. \nThe New York Times called Chapin “one of the great personalities in contemporary folk music\,” while Billboard called him “the best family artist around” and described him as “totally captivating.” Parents magazine stated\, “Nobody today is writing and performing better kids’ songs than Tom Chapin.” \nThe son of noted jazz drummer and teacher Jim Chapin and the grandson of author/critic Kenneth Burke and portrait painter James Chapin\, Tom grew up in a family that encouraged artistic pursuits. He began performing professionally as a teenager in the early 1960s\, playing in Greenwich Village folk clubs alongside his siblings Harry and Steve as The Chapin Brothers. In 1971\, he began\na five-year run as the host of the Emmy- and Peabody award-winning ABC-TV children’s series Make A Wish. Chapin and his songs were also featured in the seminal 1970 documentary film Blue Water\,\nWhite Death\, for which he spent six months sailing the Indian Ocean searching for great white sharks. \nChapin launched his solo recording career with 1976’s Life Is Like That. It was the first of a string of albums that further established his reputation as both a gifted storyteller and a natural entertainer\, winning him an uncommonly loyal fan base in the process. He also continued to venture into other creative areas\, playing the lead role in the hit Broadway musical Pump Boys and Dinettes\, working off-Broadway as musical director of both Cotton Patch Gospel and Harry Chapin: Lies and Legends\, and serving as host of TV’s National Geographic Explorer. He’s also written and performed satirical topical songs for National Public Radio’s Morning Edition\, and had a cameo role as the Vice\nPresidential candidate in Jonathan Demme’s 2004 remake of The Manchurian Candidate.  Chapin was already firmly established as a performer and recording artist when he first branched out into family music with his 1988 album Family Tree. He’s since released twelve more family CDs aimed at post-toddler\, pre-teen listeners and their parents\, comprised of original songs addressing such issues as family life\, positive self-image and respect for the environment. \n“When I was hosting Make A Wish\, people had suggested to me many times that I ought to make a ‘children’s record\,’ which to me meant singing songs for toddlers about little duckies and\ndidn’t seem particularly interesting\,” Chapin explains. “Then I had children\, and when they were eight and six\, I realized that there was not a lot of music for that age group. They understood language and story and humor\, but were too old for toddler music and too young for rebellion and love songs. So I did Family Tree with that in mind\, and it won all kinds of awards. Suddenly I had a new career as a family artist.” \nChapin’s latest family release is The Incredible Flexible You\, a collection of 12 new songs that help young listeners navigate the tricky waters of social interaction. It’s ʻA Songbag of Social\nClues.ʼ Each tune is designed for preschool and early elementary children with social cognitive challenges\, and their parents and teachers\, too. It has received a 2013 Parentsʼ Choice Gold Award\,\na Family Choice Award\, a Momʼs Choice Gold Award and a Creative Child CD of the Year Award.  “Writing family music\,” he observes\, “has been a wonderful course in songwriting. You have a\ndual agenda: keep it understandable and fun for kids\, but well-written and intelligent and musical enough to keep adults listening as well. Within these parameters\, we’ve found an enormous amount of topics and approaches and musical feels that continue to excite us to keep coming back and doing\nit again.”  Chapin also serves as narrator of a series of children’s books\, three of which\, Mama Don’t Allow\, There Was An Old Lady Who Swallowed A Fly and The Train They Call The City Of New Orleans\, have won GRAMMY awards in the Best Spoken Word Album for Children category. \nIn addition to his varied musical and media endeavors\, Chapin is also a powerful advocate on behalf of a variety of charitable causes. He is an active board member of WhyHunger\, the organization which the artist’s older brother\, the late singer-songwriter/activist Harry Chapin\, founded (as World Hunger Year) in the 1970s. He also remains active in a variety of environmental causes\, as well as efforts on behalf of music and the arts in our public schools. \n“I’m at that place in my life where I follow what interests me\,” Chapin concludes. “I still love the guitar\, I still love to sing\, and I still love the thrill of creation: a good song\, a good recording\, a good concert. I feel blessed to be my own boss\, creating my own material and performing for so many different audiences\, ages and generations.” \nIn the spirit of the holiday season\, please bring canned food to this concert for distribution to needy Long Islanders through Long Island Cares – The Harry Chapin Food Bank.

SUMMARY:Bob Westcott’s Holiday Revue
DESCRIPTION:TICKET INFO\nTickets for this event are available at the Cinema Arts Center on the day of the performance.  Prices are $10 for FMSH and Cinema Arts Centre Members / $15 for Non Members.  There are no advance tickets for this event. \nGail Storm – Robert Bruey – Wicked Karma (Dee Harris & Todd Evans) \nGail Storm is a singer/songwriter/pianist who performs locally as well as on the national and international circuits. Her blues stylings embrace the root music she cherishes and provide a refreshing frame to other genres. The “Storm” is known to have a “heavy left hand” as demonstrated by her strong\, rhythmic bass lines-particularly evident in the “boogie woogie”.  \nStorm performs in a wide variety of venues (solo or as bandleader) and has radio\, film and television appearances to her credit. She has opened for Maria Muldaur\, Henry Butler\, and Bakithi Kumalo (of Paul Simon). As bandleader\, Gail has had such notable sidemen such as Wycliffe Gordon\, Jerry Weldon\, and Toby Walker. In addition to her performance schedule\, she also teaches piano\, conducts music and art workshops\, leads multi-media presentations on blues topics\, and tributes Carole King. Storm has also been on staff at the award-winning Augusta Heritage Blues & Swing Week. \nSinger-songwriter and fingerstyle guitarist Robert Bruey grew up in rural New England and lives on Long Island’s North Fork. His roots and how they have helped to shape him are reflected in the original music on his recently released CD\, ‘Carousel’\, and are even more evident during a live performance. Robert Bruey’s music is honest and real\, raw and meaningful\, gritty and naturalistic. His deft\, spare and unique finger-picking style — with notes carefully left alone to be heard in the moment — provides a perfect complement for his earthy and soulful voice and the meaningful\, introspective lyrics of his songs. As a musical artist\, he paints with words — imbuing his songs with imagery that enables listeners to visualize his stories as he sings them.Although he cites such diverse artists as Dave Matthews\, Van Morrison\, Waylon Jennings\, Jackson Browne and Damien Rice as influences\, Robert Bruey is his own muse blazing his own musical path – one that should lead him into listening rooms and living rooms far and wide. \nWicked Karma – This is one of the most creative\, eclectic\, out there (yet in there)\, acoustic guitar duos to emerge in a long time.  Dee Harris and Todd Evans have freed themselves to travel wherever they wish to go and have given birth to their own organic music form with no boundaries or confining genre limitations.  Theirs is a musical palette uninhibited and flowing with abstract expressionism.  Even their song titles are derived from surrealism and the dada law of chance.  Sharing a mutual passion for melody and improvisation\, their original instrumentals feature striking chordal voicings\, with turns of jazz\, blues and Indian influenced resophonic slide guitar.  It’s all wicked in the best way.  It’s all Karma of the highest level.
