The Chapin Sisters make you long to return to a place you may have never been before.
 
“Bergen Street” is the new single (Out Now, Lake Bottom Records) from Abigail and Lily Chapin, the sibling members of what looks like a folk music dynasty, but in reality, is a proud family that has been making music for decades in the most humble of traditions.

GRAMMY-nominated singer, songwriter and musician Gregory Alan Isakov will continue his extensive headline tour through this fall with newly confirmed shows at Chicago’s Chicago Theatre, Nashville’s historic Ryman Auditorium (two nights), Atlanta’s Tabernacle (two nights), Washington DC’s The Anthem, Philadelphia’s Franklin Music Hall, Boston’s Roadrunner (two nights) and New York’s Beacon Theatre among many others. Special guests for the fall dates include Damien Jurado, Lucius and The Milk Carton Kids.

“Time takes its toll,” sings the 77-year-old Bruce Cockburn on the opening song, “On A Roll,” his 38th album, O Sun O Moon, out on May 12 via True North Records.  “But in my soul / I’m on a roll.”

Continuum Arts Collective (CAC) proudly announces Revel in The Meadow Summer Jam 2023, a celebration and revival of the infamous 1973 Summer Jam festival held in Watkins Glen, NY, that featured The Grateful Dead, Allman Brothers & The Band.
