A Little Bit Of New Orleans Rocked Lowell
My friends know that Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue is one of my favorite musicians; I traveled to New York three times just to see him perform! Finally, the Lowell Summer Music Series booked him! I was going to be able to see him at one of my favorite venues – life is good!
The stars were completely aligned for this show. The weather was perfect, the crowd was large (but not insane), our seats were close to the stage, and the music was amazing!
Neko Case Performance In Lowell Was Another Winner For The Series
This is another review that is difficult for me to write since I was not familiar with Neko Case‘s music prior to attending the concert at the Lowell Summer Music Series last weekend.
This review will not contain photographs (other than the photo above which was shot in the afternoon well before the show started) due to Neko’s extraordinarily restrictive photo policy.
Lucinda Felt Our Love
Many of us in attendance at last weekend’s Lucinda Williams show at the Lowell Summer Music Series remember her last performance there. Thankfully, Lucinda made a triumphant return to Boarding House Park!
Lucinda is in a much better place in her life now and that showed in her fine performance.
It Was A Rocking Soulful Show
It was another glorious evening at Boarding House Park with Amos Lee appearing as part of the Lowell Summer Music Series.
This was Amos’ second appearance at the Series and he was obviously happy to be back there.
Delta Rae Was a WOW!!!
Delta Rae, a roots rock band from Durham, North Carolina, appeared at the Lowell Summer Music Series last weekend for the first but hopefully not last time.
This was another show that I attended not having any idea what to expect other than a good time. Read the rest of this entry
Fly Rasta With Ziggy Marley!
Ziggy Marley is a reggae artist who can appeal to almost anyone, whether or not you’re a fan of reggae. He appeared at the Lowell Summer Music Series last week to open their 25th anniversary season, and it was a great way to start the summer!
If it is possible to be both high energy and mellow, Ziggy has mastered that.
Lowell Summer Music Series Season Pass On Sale!
The full lineup for the Lowell Summer Music Series has been announced, which means that the season pass is on sale! If the lineup interests you, the season pass is a fine way to see lots of great shows for less than $25 per show (presuming you see all shows).
The Lowell Summer Music Series Adds An Interesting Show
The most recent announcement from the Lowell Summer Music Series is for a triptych of musicians (and not a trio, since they are all doing their own sets). I’m pleased to announce that Ben Taylor, Heather Maloney, and Adam Ezra will perform at the Series on Friday, August 15.
Another Fascinating Announcement From Lowell Summer Music Series
The most recent announcement from the Lowell Summer Music Series is for a type of band that isn’t usually on my radar, but I trust the judgment of the Series. I’m pleased to announce that Classic Albums Live will perform The Beatles’ ‘Abbey Road’ in its entirety along with other Beatles’ hits at the Series on Friday, September 5.
Lowell Summer Music Series Keeps Hitting Home Runs
The most recent announcement is, I believe, a first for the Lowell Summer Music Series – a true co-bill. I’m pleased to announce that Howie Day and Carbon Leaf will each perform full sets on Saturday, August 2.
