Mark your calendars...

Saturday, October 18, we'll kick off a series of kids' music shows at the Northampton Community Music Center, serving as a CD release party for Aric Bieganek.

What else will be coming in the series? Well, at least two or three more shows running through the spring. Can't quite officially announce the probable February 21 performer, but let's just say, um, "you are my little music center."

Proceeds will benefit NCMC's scholarship fund. It's a phenomenal music school, very active in the community, and their scholarship fund is one of those things you should feel amazing about supporting. And admission will be very reasonable -- not set yet, but we'll have a very affordable family rate.
