SUMMARY:NorthShore Original Open Mic (NOOM) in the Sky Room at Huntington’s Cinema Arts Centre
DESCRIPTION:Dates: Nov. 2\, Nov. 9\, Nov. 30\, Dec. 7\, Dec. 14 & Dec. 28 \nThe Folk Music Society of Huntington joins with the Cinema Arts Centre in presenting the Northshore Original Open Mic (NOOM) three Wednesday nights each month. The open mic series\, held in the Cinema’s Sky Room (423 Park Avenue\, Huntington\, NY)\, is set for 7:00pm\, with open mic sign-up beginning at 6:30pm. Although it is free to attend\, donations will be sought and gratefully accepted. \nSinger-songwriter Steve Robinson\, featured performer at the November 2 NOOM\, will play a 20-minute spotlight set starting at around 8:00pm. \n“It’s our pleasure to continue the ever-deepening partnership between the Cinema Arts Centre and two pillars of Long Island music scene – the Folk Music Society of Huntington and NorthShore Original Open Mic (NOOM)\,” said Dylan Skolnick\, co-director of the Cinema Arts Centre. “The Folk Music Society of Huntington’s monthly Hard Luck Café series has been a mainstay of our programming for many years\, bringing some of the country’s best folk music performers to dedicated folk fans here in Huntington. With the introduction of a weekly open mic night\, we are delighted to offer even more opportunities for music lovers and artists to come together\, as well as a space where seasoned performers can try out their newest original pieces and where up-and-coming musicians can get used to performing for a crowd\,” Skolnick added. \n“NOOM is thrilled to partner with the Folk Music Society of Huntington and the Cinema Arts Centre and lay the groundwork for a weekly opportunity for original songwriters and performers to present their original songs in a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere\,” said Toby Tobias\, a Huntington-based singer-songwriter who launched the open mic series at a small coffee shop in Northport in the fall of 2013. One of the longest running weekly original open mics on Long Island\, NOOM has reincarnated itself at quite a few North Shore locations through the years — most recently at Finley’s in Huntington. \nAlthough the COVID-19 pandemic precluded NOOM from taking place in-person since March 2020\, songwriter Richard Parr has been livestreaming the open mic every week since then and is also playing a major role now that it has resumed in-person. “We invite singer-songwriters of varying skill levels and those who love live music\, to gather at the Cinema Arts Centre to listen to songwriters\, dedicated to the craft of writing and singing their songs\, play and talk about their original music in an environment of goodwill and open-mindedness\,” said Tobias. He noted that each NOOM will also include a featured 20-minute performance by a known/emerging local or touring songwriter starting at around 8:00pm.  “I am very excited to be a part of this\,” he said. \nMichael Kornfeld\, longtime president of the Folk Music Society of Huntington\, shares their excitement. “FMSH is delighted to extend its partnerships with both NOOM and the Cinema Arts Centre and to help provide opportunities for local singer-songwriters to share their music with our community\,” he said. “NOOM has been an Acoustic Ally of FMSH for a number of years. We’ve cross-promoted each other’s events and presented a couple of joint livestreams over the past two years.” \nAffording local artists opportunities to share their talents with appreciative audiences in an intimate listening room atmosphere was the initial impetus behind the nonprofit presenting organization’s Hard Luck Café concert series many years ago\, Kornfeld noted. That series now features a mix of local\, regional and national touring artists. The Cinema Arts Centre has partnered with the Folk Music Society of Huntington and hosted the monthly Hard Luck Café concerts in its Sky Room for more than a decade.

SUMMARY:Hard Luck Cafe:  Rachael Kilgour and Shanna in a Dress
DESCRIPTION:Singer-songwriters Rachael Kilgour and Shanna in a Dress\, both winners of the prestigious Kerrville New Folk Competition (in 2017 and 2020\, respectively)\, will share the bill during the monthly Hard Luck Café series co-presented by the Folk Music Society of Huntington and the Cinema Arts Centre (423 Park Avenue\, Huntington\, NY) in the Cinema’s Sky Room on Wednesday\, November 16\, from 7-10 p.m. An open mic precedes the concert.  Tickets are $20 ($15 for Cinema Arts Centre/FMSH members) and can be purchased online at http://cinemaartscentre.org or at the Cinema Arts Centre box office now through the evening of the event. \n \nRachel Kilgour  (Photo: Kelly Davidson) \nRachael Kilgour is a passionate and engaging Minnesota-born-and-based performing artist whose songs merge the personal and political. Her sincere\, lyric-driven work has been called both brave and humane. “When Rachael performs\, a force of nature erupts\,” writes Richard Cuccaro in an Acoustic Live in New York City and Beyond cover feature. “She unleashes a palpable torrent of passion\, whether singing about social justice or a searing personal revelation…The missives\nfrom her heart will win yours.” \nA 2015 grand-prize winner of the esteemed international NewSong Music Performance & Songwriting Competition\, as well as the winner of the 2015 LEAF Newsong Contest in North Carolina and a finalist in the Telluride Troubadour Competition\, Rachael has performed at such notable venues as NYC’s Lincoln Center\, The Kennedy Center in Washington\, DC\, and the ASCAP Music Café during the Sundance Film Festival in Park City\, Utah. In 2020\, Rachael was awarded a Minnesota State Arts Board grant to focus on a songwriting project about the life and recent death of her father. Her delicately crafted songs explore identity\, inheritance and grief in the wake of a parent’s death. \nHere’s a link to a video of “If I Am Gonna Fall Apart\,” recorded live at the World One Studios in Maryland: http://www.perfectduluthday.com/2015/09/30/rachael-kilgour-if-i-am-gonna-fall-apart/ \nAnd here’s one to a video of “In America”: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6ilvjaA6Eo \n \nShanna in a Dress \nShanna in a Dress\, the winner of the 2022 Rocky Mountain Folks Festival Songwriter Showcase\, is your quirky best friend who refuses to wear pants. In her songs\, she says what everyone is thinking but no one else will say\, and you’ll get an uncensored journey of clever humor and heartbreak\, along with a hefty side of entertainment at her shows that are also noted for her spontaneous banter and playful stage presence. Think Jason Mraz mixed with Ingrid Michaelson with a twist of Phoebe Buffay from TV’s Friends\, all wrapped up in a sweet voice accented primarily by guitar but also\, occasionally\, piano and ukulele. \nShanna started her musical career while a student at the University of Virginia\, then biked across the country and fell in love with Colorado. She recently relocated to Nashville\, Tennessee after previously living in Boulder\, CO — where she hosted a monthly Women in Song show prior to the pandemic. A clever wordsmith\, she pens smart but accessible lyrics that have drawn accolades in recent years. Shanna released her crowd-funded debut studio album\, Robot\, in May. An avid bicyclist\, she biked from Seattle to Boston last summer while music touring on her epic Tour de Dress\, during which she played more than 60 shows from coast to coast and partnered up with Pangaea World Foundation\, a global nonprofit organization. \nIn 2020\, Shanna was named the winner of the Great River Folk Fest Song Competition and a semifinalist in the Songwriter Serenade. She also performed in the Grassy Hill Emerging Artist Showcase during the virtual Falcon Ridge Folk Festival that summer. \nHere’s a link to a video of Shanna performing her funny autobiographical song “Wanna Go Out”: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IsTc161GyGI \nAnd here’s a link to a video of her heartbreakingly beautiful “A Face Like Yours”: http://youtube.com/watch?v=FK-4BzH9GP8
