SUMMARY:Cormac McCarthy (PCA Coffeehouse)
DESCRIPTION:Rooted in rural New England since the age of ten\, McCarthy grew up in towns where the economies teetered on marginal subsistence from logging and paper and woolen mills. It wasn’t until his sister made a visit home from college\, bringing an armful of recordings by Dylan\, Baez\, and Eric Anderson\, that things clicked musically for McCarthy: he traded his clarinet for a Western Auto guitar\, purchasing the Black Diamond strings across the street at the barber shop. Through his music Cormac has succeeded in bringing lyrical magic to some of these rougher edges of life.Cormac has performed nationally on many stages including three times at the Newport Folk Festival\, twice on NPR’s Mountain Stage Live Radio Show\, Boston’s WUMB Folk Radio 10th anniversary celebration\, headlined at the Night of Humor and Songwriters and American Troubadours with Eric Andersen and Townes Van Zandt at Boston’s Somerville Theater\, Ben & Jerry’s One World\, One Heart Festival\, Falcon Ridge Folk Festival and more.Cabaret Seating. BYOB & Snacks.The PCA Coffeehouse Series is generously sponsored by Rockland Trust.

SUMMARY:The Hosmer Mountain Boys
DESCRIPTION:The Hosmer Mountain Boys are a retro bluegrass band that is quickly rising in the New England Bluegrass scene and having a lot of fun in the process. They were voted the “Fan Favorite” at the 2023 Podunk Bluegrass Festival\, performed in Lexington (KY) on WoodSongs Old-Time Radio Hour\, and crossed the pond for the 2024 Battlefield Bluegrass Festival in England. Keegan (guitar) and Simon (banjo) met at Mando Camp North in 2018 at age 16 and instantly connected over their passion for Flatt & Scruggs. Red Day\, (mandolin) has recently been added to the band this season. Cathy Bumgarner Day (fiddle) and Tom Bowman (bass) complete the lineup with decades of regional bluegrass experience. Simon (banjo) has been described by some attendees at the Thomas Point Beach Bluegrass Festival in Brunswick\, ME\, as Connecticut’s best‑kept secret. You’ll hear that Keegan’s major guitar‑picking influences include Riley Pucket\, Don Reno\, and the thumb‑picking style of Lester Flatt. Rounding out the band is Cathy Bumgarner Day on fiddle and Tom Bowman on bass\, both staples in the New England Bluegrass Music scene for decades. \nCabaret Seating. BYOB & Snacks. \nThe Folk/Acoustic Concert Series is sponsored by Marshall-Ben Tisdale\, CEPA®\, AAMS®\, Edward Jones Financial Advisor\, 270 Littleton Rd Suite 17\, Westford – 978-692-5665; edwardjones.com/marshall-ben-tisdale
