2012 Summer Concert Series
With four concerts scheduled, the UU Summer Concert Series is shorter than in the past, but there has been no change in the superb quality of our performers! Another big change is free admission (though suggested donations of $15 will be gratefully accepted.) This is all thanks to the generous sponsorship of Mascoma Bank and local business partners.
The four concerts are scheduled every Wednesday night in July at the UU Church in South Strafford, Vermont.
All concerts begin at 7:30 p.m. For more information, contact Fred Wolfe at
(802) 765-4295.
Below is the terrific program for 2012.

July 4: Jeremiah McLane, Bob Murray, and Susannah Blachly
Join Jeremiah, Bob, and Susannah for songs that spring from their individual work in Archetypal Dreamwork. With guitar, piano, accordian and fiddle, they will make music that both reflects and honors their individual commitments to discovering and responding to the personal truths revealed in their dreams. |

July 11: Samantha Moffatt
Samantha Moffatt (right) returns with fiddler/guitarist Jean-Pierre LeDuc and singer and accordionist Mireille Girard. These three musicians, who have appeared here in the past, present lively interpretations of the traditional dance music of Quebec, “chanson”- style songs from France, and their own pieces: listeners are invited sing along, join the foot rhythms, and dance in the aisles! |

American roots music at its best! |

July 25: David Surette and Susie Burke
Susie and David have made a name for themselves as one of the finest acts on the lively New England folk scene. Together since 1988, they have built a steady following for their own blend of contemporary, traditional, and original folk and acoustic music. Susie's vocal style is stunning and heartfelt, and is matched by David's fluid guitar work. |
