R.O.C.K. the Carle!

Sep 17

Today (Saturday, September 17) at 1:00, it’s the Royal Order of Chords and Keys kicking off our yearly series at the Eric Carle Museum!  Tickets are just $6 at the door, and the show benefits the tremendous work of the Northampton Community Music Center.  Note that ticket purchase doesn’t include museum admission — but you can go to the concert without going to the museum too.

Here they are, rocking out on a warmer day in 2010:

 

We’ll present their in-studio from 2010 in an encore presentation on the radio this morning, too.
