Mary Fahl • Sat, Oct 22 • 7:30 PM

With “a voice for the gods that can transport
listeners to other realms” (Boston Globe), Mary Fahl is an
expressive, emotional singer/songwriter who first achieved fame as
lead singer and co-founder of the mid-1990s NYC- based chamber-pop
group October Project, a band known for their lush harmonies,
sweeping melodies and Fahl’s unique and powerful vocals. After two
records on Epic, the band disbanded, but Fahl had more freedom to
pursue her own muse, whether that meant writing and recording songs
for movies (including the theme for the Civil War epic “Gods and
Generals”), singing arias and medieval Spanish songs for Sony
Classical or releasing a unique album-length take on “Dark Side of
the Moon”…
Opener Jesse
Lynn Madera is a multi-faceted singer-songwriter who weaves a blend
of pop, folk, blues, Americana, and jazz influences into her
piano-driven compositions. Her vocals are powerful and haunting in
one instant, and light, whimsical, and sweet in the next as she
moves seamlessly and effortlessly across genres.

Karla Bonoff has seen a major resurgence and renewed interest in
her music and legendary career. Beginning with the release of her
first new album in over a decade, Carry Me Home, is a 16-song set
featuring brand new recordings of Karla’s classics along with new
songs by Karla, Kenny Edwards and a cover of a vintage Jackson Browne
tune, Something Fine.
With history of penning
big hits for others (All My Life, Linda Ronstadt & Aaron Neville;
Tell Me Why, Wynonna Judd; and Home, Bonnie Raitt, Trisha Yearwood),
Karla enters her fourth decade as a songwriter and performer with a
voice that has not aged, a tour schedule that takes her around the
country and overseas annually, and a very devoted fan base. Produced
by Karla & Sean McCue, the new album features Karla on piano and
guitar and her longtime musical partner, Nina Gerber, on acoustic
& electric guitar leads. Glenn Phillips (Toad the Wet Sprocket)
adds harmony to two of Karla’s most beloved songs, Home and The Water
is Wide.

They said it couldn’t be done. Four different
songwriters joining forces to form a single band? There was simply no
precedent (outside of CSNY, The Beatles, The Traveling Wilburys, The
Highwaymen, Monsters of Folk, etc.). And yet Fantastic Cat did it anyway,
defying the odds and teaming up to record their highly unanticipated
debut, The Very Best of Fantastic Cat, out now on Blue Rose Music.
Captured in the wilds of the Pocono Mountains, the album gleefully
careens between genres and decades, mixing electrified 60’s folk and
70’s AM radio gold as it balances careful craftsmanship and ecstatic
abandon in equal measure.
Individually, each
member of Fantastic Cat boasts their own impressive resume along with
a litany of critical acclaim. The Guardian dubbed Don DiLego “one to
watch.” NPR said Anthony D’Amato “sings and writes in the tradition
of Bruce Springsteen or Josh Ritter.” Rolling Stone called Brian
Dunne’s latest single a “stunner” and praised Mike Montali’s band,
Hollis Brown, as “the soundtrack for a late-night drive through the
American heartland.” Collectively, though, the four transcend their
respective roots, emerging as an instrument-swapping,
harmony-trading, tear-jerking, wise-cracking rock and roll
cooperative far greater than the sum of its parts.
