SUMMARY:Ordinary Elephant with special guest Remi Goode
DESCRIPTION:Doors open an hour before showtime.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nADVANCE PURCHASE: $20 (+ fees)\n\n\n\nDAY OF SHOW: $25 (+ fees)\n\n\n\nAll surcharges and member discounts will be calculated at checkout.\n\n\n\nClick Here to learn how our ticket surcharge supports OLS.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMesmerizing folk duo Ordinary Elephant has spent the better part of the last decade on a never-ending tour that’s earned married couple Crystal and Pete Damore widespread critical acclaim and made fans of luminaries like Tom Paxton and Mary Gauthier. In 2017\, the pair took home the International Folk Music Award for Artist of the Year on the strength of their breakout album\, Before I Go\, and two years later\, they returned with the similarly lauded Honest\, which the Associated Press hailed as “one of the best Americana albums of the year.” \n\n\n\nThe band’s new stripped-down\, self-titled collection is the purest distillation of their sound yet\, showcasing the arresting power of the couple’s gorgeous harmonies and intricate fretwork. The songs are timeless\, rooted in rich\, character-driven storytelling\, and the performances are similarly transportive\, fueled by delicately intertwined banjo\, guitar\, and octave mandolin. Though the songs were born out of a period of deep uncertainty\, the record itself is a work of profound self-assurance\, one delivered by a duo whose personal and professional lives embody the limitless possibility of honest\, organic collaboration. Press play on Ordinary Elephant and you’ll hear more than just a husband and wife; you’ll hear the sound of sincerity and commitment\, of patience and gratitude\, of learning to let go of expectation and revel in the simple beauty of the moment. \n\n\n\nWebsite | Facebook | Instagram \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRemi Goode:\n\n\n\nRemi Goode is a classical guitarist turned alternative folk singer-songwriter\, based in Nashville. In a continual search for the truth\, her lyrics are filled with paradoxes and multiple perspectives\, as she attempts to embrace the grey areas of life. Receiving comparisons to Suzanne Vega and Kathleen Edwards\, Goode’s debut album\, Things I’ve Said Before\, released September 2025\, is an introduction to the indie-folk artist who straddles the borders between different worlds. A nylon-string guitarist nodding to the classical training and contemporary influences of her past while pushing toward a wider sound\, she creates her own version of modern-day American roots music: one that “has an intimacy to it that feels almost intrusive\,” according to Glide Magazine. Remi tours nationally in a duo with longtime collaborator and partner\, Gabe Lehrer\, featuring intricate interlocking guitar arrangements and close vocal harmonies. \n\n\n\nWebsite | Facebook | Instagram

SUMMARY:Ethan Setiawan & Fine Ground
DESCRIPTION:Doors open an hour before showtime.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nADVANCE PURCHASE: $20 (+ fees)\n\n\n\nDAY OF SHOW: $25 (+ fees)\n\n\n\nAll surcharges and member discounts will be calculated at checkout.\n\n\n\nClick Here to learn how our ticket surcharge supports OLS.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEthan Setiawan & Fine Ground is deeply rooted in and colored by traditional bluegrass\, yet forward-leaning into a thoughtful modernity. This Boston-based quintet allies together some of the most athletic musical aces of the Northeast bluegrass scene: BB Bowness on banjo\, Julian Pinelli on fiddle\, Alex Rubin on guitar\, Brittany Karlson on bass\, led by mandolinist Ethan Setiawan. Fine Ground gives us something to really sink our teeth into. \n\n\n\nNamed “creative and virtuosic” by WBUR Boston and “one of the most formidable mandolinists of his generation” by The Bluegrass Situation\, Setiawan is not short on accolades\, having secured both the National Mandolin Championship and the Rockygrass Mandolin Championship. The award-winning bandleader has built an eclectic career spanning traditional bluegrass\, Scottish folk music\, classical repertoire\, jazz\, and original instrumental composition\, but Fine Ground grew from a desire to return to the music that first inspired him. Rather than simply retreading bluegrass’s past\, Fine Ground’s debut album\, Little Storms\, reflects the heart of the tradition with fresh original compositions alongside songs from beloved contemporary folk artists. This new release brews together a musical collection that feels equally at home in the bluegrass canon and today’s broader contemporary acoustic landscape. \n\n\n\nRecorded at Dimension Sound Studios\, Little Storms was recorded the way this dynamic band has always loved to make music together: live\, in a room\, listening and connecting to each other through the songs that move them. It is a truthful and moving portrait of the musical depth that only comes hand-in-hand with longtime friendship\, collaboration\, and love of craft. You can look forward to Ethan Setiawan & Fine Ground’s debut record Little Storms on October 2\, 2026. Little Storms was recorded by Dan Cardinal at Dimension Sound Studios\, mixed by Setiawan\, and mastered by Dave Glasser at Airshow Mastering. \n\n\n\nWebsite | Facebook | Instagram

SUMMARY:Howley (of We Banjo 3)
DESCRIPTION:Doors open an hour before showtime.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nADVANCE PURCHASE: $25 (+ fees)\n\n\n\nDAY OF SHOW: $30 (+ fees)\n\n\n\nAll surcharges and member discounts will be calculated at checkout.\n\n\n\nClick Here to learn how our ticket surcharge supports OLS.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe next chapter from the brothers who redefined Irish folk music. \n\n\n\nFor over a decade\, David and Martin Howley have been at the heart of a musical revolution. As founding members of We Banjo 3\, the Galway-born brothers brought Irish traditional music to new heights\, blending it with Americana\, bluegrass\, and contemporary songcraft to create a sound beloved across the world. Their electrifying live shows\, virtuosic playing\, and brotherly chemistry made We Banjo 3 one of the most celebrated acts on the international folk scene. \n\n\n\nNow\, the brothers return with a brand-new project: Howley — a re-imagining of that signature sound for a new era. With Martin’s dazzling mastery on banjo and mandolin and David’s unmistakable voice and rhythmic guitar\, Howley is both a continuation and a renewal\, rooted in tradition but reaching fearlessly toward the future. \n\n\n\nJoined by two world-class artists\, Kiana June (fiddle\, vocals) and Caitlin Leahy (percussion\, flute\, vocals)\, Howley expands the brothers’ trademark sound with lush harmonies\, fiery fiddle\, and rhythmic flair. The result is warm\, vibrant\, and deeply human: a band that feels both comfortingly familiar and thrillingly new. \n\n\n\nMartin Howley\, a seven-time All-Ireland champion and the first Irish banjoist to perform on the Grand Ole Opry\, brings dazzling precision and playful charisma to every performance. \n\n\n\nDavid Howley\, known for his soulful voice and magnetic stage presence\, fuses the sensitivity of a songwriter with the power of a rock frontman. \n\n\n\nKiana June\, the “fiddle-fueled” virtuoso of Gaelic Storm and Come From Away\, infuses the music with both elegance and fire. \n\n\n\nCaitlin Leahy\, an accomplished multi-instrumentalist from the celebrated Leahy’s Luck family\, provides rhythmic heartbeat and shimmering vocal textures. \n\n\n\nTogether\, they form a sound built on connection: the pulse of family\, the spark of shared history\, and the joy of collaboration. \n\n\n\nWith Howley\, the brothers have created something new: music that celebrates their past but looks ahead with open arms. Their live show is full of laughter\, harmony\, and heart\, the kind of energy that reminds audiences why they fell in love with folk music in the first place. \n\n\n\n“Fans of We Banjo 3 will recognize the spirit — but Howley brings it into a new light: deeper\, braver\, and bursting with soul.” \n\n\n\nWebsite | Facebook | Instagram

SUMMARY:Connor Garvey & Ben Cosgrove — Together in Concert
DESCRIPTION:Doors open an hour before showtime.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nADVANCE PURCHASE: $20 (+ fees)\n\n\n\nDAY OF SHOW: $25 (+ fees)\n\n\n\nAll surcharges and member discounts will be calculated at checkout.\n\n\n\nClick Here to learn how our ticket surcharge supports OLS.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTwo distinctive New England musicians\, two very different musical voices\, and a shared love of great songs\, stories\, and the spaces between them. \n\n\n\nAward-winning Portland\, Maine singer-songwriter Connor Garvey and acclaimed pianist/composer Ben Cosgrove have been making music together for years\, bringing an unusually dynamic combination of Garvey’s rhythmic\, soulful songwriting and Cosgrove’s richly textured\, landscape-inspired piano work to stages throughout New England and beyond. \n\n\n\nTheir collaboration has included concerts in Maine\, New Hampshire\, Massachusetts\, Vermont\, Colorado\, and beyond\, with notable appearances together at venues including One Longfellow Square in Portland\, The Word Barn in Exeter\, and Stone Cottage Studios in Boulder. They have also shared the stage at festivals and special events\, including Connor’s Great Northeast Folk Festival in Portland. Their musical partnership has grown from individual appearances into a genuine creative collaboration\, with Cosgrove performing and recording with Garvey and becoming part of the larger musical world surrounding Garvey’s albums and live shows. \n\n\n\nIn concert\, the pairing offers something more than two artists taking turns onstage. Garvey’s intimate\, humorous\, deeply human songs provide the narrative center\, while Cosgrove’s inventive piano playing adds color\, movement\, atmosphere\, and surprise. The result is a show that can move effortlessly from quiet reflection to rhythmic energy\, with plenty of conversation\, spontaneity\, and musical interplay along the way. \n\n\n\nConnor Garvey & Ben Cosgrove bring years of friendship\, collaboration\, and shared stages to every performance—a meeting of songwriter and composer that feels both carefully crafted and completely in the moment \n\n\n\nConnor Garvey: \n\n\n\nConnor Garvey is an award-winning singer-songwriter from Portland\, Maine\, whose music lives at the intersection of thoughtful folk\, rhythmic acoustic rock\, and deeply human storytelling. With a career spanning more than two decades\, Garvey has built a reputation as an engaging performer\, accomplished guitarist\, and songwriter unafraid to explore life’s heavier questions without losing his sense of humor\, hope\, or wonder. \n\n\n\nA winner of the Kerrville New Folk\, Rocky Mountain Folks Fest\, SolarFest\, Wildflower Arts & Music Festival\, and Maine Songwriters Association competitions\, Garvey was also voted the Most Wanted Artist at the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival and named one of SiriusXM’s top new singer-songwriters. His performances have taken him to major folk festivals and listening rooms across the country\, sharing stages with artists including John Gorka\, Ellis Paul\, David Wilcox\, Catie Curtis\, Brett Dennen\, Storyhill\, and The Ballroom Thieves. \n\n\n\nGarvey’s eighth album\, Another End of a Year\, marked a particularly mature chapter in his songwriting. The Portland Press Herald praised its “first-rate songwriting with equally solid vocals and a tapestry of keen musicianship\,” while Glide Magazine called it “his most powerful record yet\,” highlighting Garvey’s ability to write lyrics that reach “the core of some of our most vulnerable feelings.” The Maine Edge described the album as “simply top-tier material” and “another example of a Maine artist deserving of a global profile.” Americana UK summed it up more simply: “This is quality song-craft from a richly experienced\, acclaimed musician.” \n\n\n\nThat depth is balanced by a performer’s natural ability to connect. The Portland Press Herald’s Aimsel Ponti captured something central to Garvey’s appeal\, writing that he “proves you can be optimistic and self-aware without being boring.” The Portland Phoenix’s Sam Pfiefle urged listeners to “STOP AND LISTEN\,” describing Garvey as something like “a cross between Paul Simon and Rufus Wainwright\,” while No Depression praised the creative spark that makes his live performances continually surprising. \n\n\n\nGarvey’s songs are ultimately about connection: the stories we tell ourselves\, the moments that change us\, the people who help us through\, and the possibility of finding meaning—and even joy—in the middle of it all. Whether performing solo or with the musicians who have formed the backbone of his recordings for years\, he brings audiences into that shared space between the last note and the applause\, where a good song becomes something more than entertainment. \n\n\n\nBased in Portland\, Maine\, Connor Garvey continues to write\, record\, perform\, and lead songwriting workshops\, carrying forward a simple belief that has animated his career from the beginning: a song can make us pay closer attention—to ourselves\, to one another\, and to the world around us. \n\n\n\nWebsite | Facebook | Instagram \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBen Cosgrove:\n\n\n\nBen Cosgrove is a traveling composer-performer whose music explores themes of landscape\, place\, and environment. Described by the Boston Globe as “a sonic plein-air painter… [using] his piano as a paintbrush\,” Ben has performed in every U.S. state except for Delaware\, collaborated with groups ranging from rock bands to research scientists\, contributed music to several radio and film projects (including the recent Ken Burns documentary The American Buffalo)\, and held residencies and fellowships with institutions including NASA\, Acadia National Park\, White Mountain National Forest\, Isle Royale National Park\, Harvard University\, Middlebury College\, the New England National Scenic Trail\, the Schmidt Ocean Institute\, the Upper Mississippi River National Wildlife & Fish Refuge\, the Connecticut River Museum\, and the Sitka Center for Art & Ecology. \n\n\n\nBen’s music has been called “beautiful and fascinating” (The Maine Edge)\, “deeply impressive” (Independent Clauses)\, and “immediately evocative and fully arresting… brim[ming] with technical mastery and emotional capital” (Seven Days). Yankee Magazine calls his music “quintessentially American\, omnivorous\, and democratic\,” and Sound of Boston has described him as “an expert at painting sonic portraits of curious\, unexpected places.” His latest album\, Topograph\, a collection of sixteen new pieces inspired by land-shaping processes around the country\, was released in early 2026. \n\n\n\nWebsite | Facebook | Instagram

SUMMARY:Mason Jennings
DESCRIPTION:Doors open an hour before showtime.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nADVANCE PURCHASE: $30 (+ fees)\n\n\n\nDAY OF SHOW: $40 (+ fees)\n\n\n\nAll surcharges and member discounts will be calculated at checkout.\n\n\n\nClick Here to learn how our ticket surcharge supports OLS.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“I love song craft\,” says Mason Jennings\, a longtime folksinger who has spent over two decades honing his craft both on stage and in the studio. “A song is like a boat on the water\, and you’re trying to make it float with as few pieces as possible. If you do it right\, a song can be very healing.” \n\n\n\nFor Jennings\, songwriting has always been about creating a personal connection\, both with his audience and with himself. Over the years\, he’s become known for his unpretentious\, emotive approach to folk music\, combining introspective lyrics with acoustic melodies. He’s drawn comparisons to the greats of the genre\, including Nick Drake\, John Fahey\, and Tom Waits\, but Jennings’ sound is distinctly his own\, one that blends vulnerability with strength\, simplicity with complexity. \n\n\n\nBorn in Honolulu and raised in Pittsburgh\, Jennings’ musical journey began with a move to Minneapolis in the late 1990s\, where he released his debut album and quickly gained attention for his raw\, authentic sound. His contemporary take on classic folk resonated with listeners and fellow musicians alike\, earning him fans like Jack Johnson and Isaac Brock of Modest Mouse. Over the years\, his steady output of albums has solidified his reputation as one of the leading voices in the folk and Americana scenes. \n\n\n\nThough his early work focused on solo acoustic arrangements\, Jennings has also embraced more adventurous\, genre-crossing projects. His collaboration with the synth-based supergroup Painted Shield marked a departure from his usual style\, incorporating electronic elements and a more expansive sound. “Being in that band really freed me up as a solo artist\,” he reflects. “It allowed me to experiment and return to the acoustic\, stripped-back music that first inspired me.” \n\n\n\nAt his core\, Jennings is an artist constantly evolving\, and his music reflects a deep personal journey. Themes of healing\, growth\, and self-acceptance have been central to his songwriting\, especially in recent years. Following a challenging period of personal upheaval\, Jennings explored themes of trauma\, recovery\, and reconciling his past in his 2018 album Songs From When We Met. His music became a way to process his experiences and find peace within himself\, a journey that continues today. \n\n\n\nFor Jennings\, songwriting is about much more than just creating music. It is a path toward emotional clarity and personal transformation. “I’ve learned that it’s OK to be my real self\,” he shares. “These songs reflect the struggle to take care of myself and be the person I truly am. It’s about accepting where I come from\, and working to heal old wounds\, so I can move forward in a healthier way.” \n\n\n\nAs he continues to write and record\, Jennings remains deeply connected to his roots in folk music while embracing new textures and ideas. His work\, whether with a band or solo\, reflects an ongoing exploration of sound\, emotion\, and the human experience. For him\, the process of creating is just as important as the final result\, an ever-evolving conversation between the artist and his audience\, and between the artist and himself. \n\n\n\nWebsite | Facebook | Instagram

SUMMARY:GoldenOak - Night 1
DESCRIPTION:THIS IS FOR FRIDAY – NIGHT ONE\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDoors open an hour before showtime.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nADVANCE PURCHASE: $20 (+ fees)\n\n\n\nDAY OF SHOW: $25 (+ fees)\n\n\n\nAll surcharges and member discounts will be calculated at checkout.\n\n\n\nClick Here to learn how our ticket surcharge supports OLS.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGoldenOak’s music is rooted in the natural landscape. Their songs move in an organic\, grounding direction\, shaped by rich\, folk-influenced sibling harmony. Fronted by siblings Zak and Lena Kendall\, the Maine-based band has built a steady and growing fan base through a sound that feels both intimate and quietly powerful. This approach is clearly reflected in their new album\, All the Light in Autumn. \n\n\n\nThe record deepens GoldenOak’s sound\, building on their indie folk foundation with the addition of drum machines and synths\, while keeping folk-influenced vocal harmonies front and center. Lyrically\, rather than offering easy answers\, All the Light in Autumn invites listeners to slow down and reflect on responsibility\, connection\, and care for the places we live in. The album artwork mirrors this approach\, with nine birds representing the nine songs and the individual stories within them. \n\n\n\nBeyond their recorded work\, GoldenOak tours nationally and has shared the stage with artists such as Hiss Golden Messenger\, Sierra Hull\, and Blitzen Trapper. They also host their own music festival in their hometown of Farmington\, Maine. Under the Oaks Music Festival is a two-day event featuring live music\, workshops\, and camping along the Sandy River. Now in its fourth year\, the festival has become a pillar of the community that the band is building. \n\n\n\nWebsite | Facebook | Instagram
