We Are All Baker
WeAreBaker, a duo project of Mishal Moore and Richard Cortez, delivered one of the most emotional music experiences I have ever had. I believe everyone in the audience at the Extended Play Sessions felt the same.

This is going to be a difficult review to write because I doubt my words will adequately convey the intensity of this performance.
Another Enchanting Evening With An American Songster
I have come to the realization that I am going to see Dom Flemons every chance I get! I saw him a couple of weeks ago at Club Passim, which was the second time I saw him in 2014.
Dom Flemons
Not only is he a terrific musician and ethnomusicologist, he’s a warm, personable man as well.
Stellar Three-Part Harmonies from Red Molly
Last week, I attended another wonderful taping of an Extended Play Session at Alternate Root TV. This night, Red Molly gave us an intimate look into their music and process.

I knew of Red Molly but had never heard them, and was excited to hear their brand of American roots music.
An American Songster Enchants
The weather was not perfect (rain was threatening), but the setting was. A large crowd gathered in the Museum of Fine Arts‘ courtyard to see Dom Flemons perform for the first concert of the 2014 Concerts in the Courtyard series.
Dom Flemons
Dom defines songster as someone who plays and sings, and that certainly describes him. He does not describe himself as a musicologist, yet he is extremely knowledgeable about the history of American and African-American roots music; he obviously enjoys educating his audiences because he does it quite well.
