Good things come in threes, and we’ve got some terrific trios this month! I’m With Her, perhaps my favorite group name in ages, plays the Freight & Salvage on April 3rd.The band includes Sarah Watkins of Nickel Creek fame with Sarah Jarosz and Aoifie (eefah) O’Donovan, often heard on Chris Thile’s radio program formerly known as Prairie Home Companion.

 Cry Cry Cry, featuring Richard Shindell, Lucy Kaplansky, and Acoustic Sunrise fave Dar Williams, are playing on the 15th. I’ll be in the front row of The Freight for that one!

The Greek kicks off its 2018 in April – Fleet Foxes is the big one for me this month, although I am still adjusting to their new, ambitious orchestral sound. And tri-generational musical family, Arlo Guthrie, son of Woody, and his kids Sarah Lee and Abe, play The Freight & Salvage April 10, 11, and 12.
