This Thursday Mr Tim Gartland returns! Presently living in Nashville where he is the top-rated John Deere® Salesman,he not only plays a mean harmonica and sings like an angel, but he has just returned from Rio, where his synchronized spitting team brought home the Gold for the good ol’ USA.

Tim Gartland

He’s dragging in a crack team to black him up, featuring Mr. Tom West, dishpan handed keyboardist for the (Eupho) Mystics, Pete Henderson,on catarrh, who ,like me is still in recovery from last week’s Sax Gordon show,and Forrest “Tucker” Padgett to make butter on the skins. A great time!

BRIAN KING & FRIENDS

Friday

 6 PM – 8:30 pm

briankinglarge-w2000h1400

Brian King (voice, keys, guitar) and Nathan Cohen (violin, trumpet) are the founders of the neo-cabaret band, What Time Is It, Mr. Fox?. The pair like to bend and blend genres, allowing the song to be what it needs to be in order to express its emotional core. Together they have packed houses in Boston, NYC, and throughout the country.

Chris Leghorn and Gerry Ryan are a new acoustic duo who perform a wide range of compelling songs that cover the traditions from folk, Celtic, sea shanties, original and popular music. They specialize in performing catchy songs with strong melodies and compelling harmonies that captivate and entertain an audience.

A long-term resident of the North Shore, Chris Leghorn is a member of the Knotty Celts, a local Celtic trio and local favorite that has performed at many area venues. She has also performed with various acapella singing groups including the Solstice Singers and Crowd Nine.

Gerry Ryan is a veteran singer/songwriter and performer from Salem, MA. Ryan has featured at the Me & Thee Coffee House, the Linden Tree Coffee House, theAmazing Things Coffee House, Main Street Cafe and the Parish Center for the Artsand other music venues throughout New England. Ryan has issued two CD’s of original music, Halfway Home and Today in Yesteryear both of which have received airplay on WUMB-FM in Boston and other on radio and internet stations across the country.

Nine great outdoor concerts to benefit nine local non-profits.

gloucesterwriterscenter-w496

Since its founding in 2010, the Gloucester Writers Center has hosted hundreds of events including readings, classes, lectures, films, writers-in-residence and community events.

A working writers center in a working town, the GWC is housed in the home of Gloucester’s first poet laureate, Vincent Ferrini. For fifty years Ferrini lived and wrote poetry in his home and framing studio at 126 East Main Street. After his death in 2007 the project of opening the house as a living memorial began with Ferrini’s nephew, Henry Ferrini, long-time friend Annie Thomas, friend and Unitarian Universalist minister Paul Sawyer and New York writer André Spears. The GWC was incorporated before Sawyer’s death in 2010 and soon received 501(c)(3) status.

The Gloucester Meetinghouse Foundation presents a series of 9 free concerts on the Meetinghouse Green at the corner of Church and Middle Street, from July 8 to September 2, 2016. The public is invited to make free-will donations to Cape Ann non-profit organizations partnered with each concert.

The family-friendly concerts begin at 6 pm. Bring a picnic, folding chairs or blankets. In case of rain, the events will take place inside the Meetinghouse (no food or drink permitted.)

The Gloucester Meetinghouse Foundation presents

Willie Loco Alexander

willie

From the Lost, a 60′s garage-band that made a couple of records for Capitol, to the psychedelic late-60′s Bagatelle, to a brief stint in the post-Lou Reed Velvet Underground, the Boom Boom Band in the punk 70′s, which recorded for MCA, to an introspective take on the 80′s recording for the French label New Rose, and renewed band energy in the 90′s with the Persistence of Memory Orchestra, Willie has maintained a consistently high level of emotional and artistic integrity.

About Opioid Angel Program

If an addict comes into the Gloucester Police Department and asks for help, an officer will take them to the Addison Gilbert Hospital, where they will be paired with a volunteer “ANGEL” who will help guide them through the process. We have partnered with more than a dozen additional treatment centers to ensure that our patients receive the care and treatment they deserve — not in days or weeks, but immediately.
