SUMMARY:Judy Pancoast - All My Best Memories: Built by The Carpenters
DESCRIPTION:Judy Pancoast was born and raised in Waterville (ME)\, and went to college at University of Maine. She later got a master’s degree in University of New Hampshire and performed at hundreds of schools\, libraries\, festivals and events nationwide. Effervescent\, energetic\, entertaining … all of these words describe Judy Pancoast; a singer\, songwriter and recording artist who radiates joy in her music. At the tender age of 11\, Pancoast first heard the lovely\, inimitable voice of Karen Carpenter on the radio. Thus began an obsession with the music of The Carpenters\, the best-selling brother-sister musical act of the 70s\, that has lasted until this day. \n“All My Best Memories: Built by The Carpenters” takes the audience into Judy’s life as she recounts the stories of growing up a Carpenters fan and sings the songs closest to her heart. The show premiered at world-renowned cabaret club “Don’t Tell Mama” in New York City to rave reviews from audience members\, and has been invited back twice. Tickets are $18 PCA Members; $20 Non-Members; $25 At the Door (if available). BYOB & Snacks. \nWell-known for her children’s music for the last 25 years\, Judy Pancoast crafts clever songs with infectious melodies that delight the young and the young at heart\, as evidenced by the 2011 Grammy Award nomination for Best Children’s Album for her one-of-a-kind CD\, “Weird Things Are Everywhere: A Reading Road Trip with Judy Pancoast!” Judy is perhaps most well-known world-wide for her infectious Christmas hit\, “The House on Christmas Street.” which can be heard each Christmas season at residential synchronized light displays and on radio stations across the country. In 2003\, Judy released her debut album “Swimming in Jello” and later in 2005 she released two more albums which were “The Tune Room” and “Are We There Yet”.

SUMMARY:Mike Payette's Three-Hour Tour
DESCRIPTION:Mike Payette (bass\, vocals) returns to the PCA with a new band called “Three Hour Tour”. This new band will entertain you with soft yacht rock music with 70’s-80’s smooth vibes\, great songs\, and tight harmonies. Think Michael McDonald\, Doobie Brothers\, Christopher Cross\, Kenny Loggins\, Toto\, Steely Dan\, Ambrosia\, and more. \nThis new music project came to life when Mike Payette was subbing for a musician in the band No Static (a Steely Dan tribute band). During the break\, he told the drummer Barry Lit that he’d like to put together a Yacht Rock show\, to which Barry replied “I’m IN!”… and so the THREE HOUR TOUR began. \nMike has gathered his musician friends of kindred spirits to be part of this new band that includes keyboards\, sax & trumpet\, and background singers. Many of them know a thing or two about Yacht Rock from their time playing with Barry Lit in No Static\, as well as other music projects Payette has worked with.

DESCRIPTION:TICKETING: $20 Advance\, $25 at the Door\, $18 Members \nMike Payette (bass\, vocals) returns to the PCA on Saturday\, March 2\, 2024 with a new band called “Three Hour Tour”. This new band will entertain you with soft yacht rock music with 70’s-80’s smooth vibes\, great songs\, and tight harmonies. Think Michael McDonald\, Doobie Brothers\, Christopher Cross\, Kenny Loggins\, Toto\, Steely Dan\, Ambrosia\, and more. \nThis new music project came to life when Mike Payette was subbing for a musician in the band No Static (a Steely Dan tribute band). During the break\, he told the drummer Barry Lit that he’d like to put together a Yacht Rock show\, to which Barry replied “I’m IN!”… and so the THREE HOUR TOUR began. \nMike has gathered his musician friends of kindred spirits to be part of this new band that includes keyboards\, sax & trumpet\, and background singers. Many of them know a thing or two about Yacht Rock from their time playing with Barry Lit in No Static\, as well as other music projects Payette has worked with. \nMUSICIANS:\nMichael Payette (vocals\, bass)\nSteve Aubert (keys)\nEric Byers (guitar\, vocals)\nBrad Kohl (sax)\nBarry Lit (drums)\nSuzanne Buell (vocals)\nMarcia J. Macres (vocals)\nAlicia Payette (vocals) \nEmbark and take the tour with us! \nMore about Mike Payette:\nMike Payette’s Acoustic Roadshow performed at the PCA in June 2023 to a sold out show. Payette is also involved in many other music projects. With a musical career spanning decades\, he is a well-known and well-respected member of the Greater Boston musical community. His bass playing and strong vocal ability are always in demand. In addition to his years of live performance experience\, Michael was a founding member of two of Boston’s most sought-after function bands and has sung on numerous radio and television ads in the Boston market. \nBand FB Page: https://www.facebook.com/three.tour\nPayette’s website: moonglowentertainment.com \nWhat is Yacht Rock? Yacht rock refers in part to a stereotypical yacht owner enjoying smooth music while sailing. It was that kind of soft rock with glossy production\, breezy vocals\, and bouncy rhythms that dominated FM radio airwaves in the late 1970s and early 1980s. \nProducer: Marcia J. Macres

SUMMARY:Chelmsford Community Band Concert
DESCRIPTION:Winter in New England is not for the faint-hearted\, but Robert Frost wrote\, “Yet all the precedent is on my side: / I know that winter death has never tried / The earth but it has failed\,” and he asserted that by April\, nothing will be left white. In the meantime\, forget about the cold season and enjoy a concert by the Chelmsford Community Concert Band\, which will be performing at 2pm on Sunday\, March 10\, at the Chelmsford High School’s Performing Arts Center. The program they will present is varied and broad\, including two marches composed 100 years apart\, memorial music celebrating the joy of a life well lived\, a fantastic latin flute duet\, and selections from the Sound of Music. \nAdmission to the concert is free\, but donations are always very gratefully accepted so that the band can continue to operate. Suggested donations are $10 for adults and $20 for families. If the concert leaves you peckish\, they will have a table of baked goods you can take home for an additional donation. \nHaving recently celebrated its golden anniversary\, the Chelmsford Community Band has a 65-piece concert band and a 20-piece jazz ensemble made of dedicated volunteer musicians with a proud tradition of bringing live musical performances to this community since 1972. They are supported by multiple Mass Cultural Council grants\, including one for Cultural Sector Recovery. Follow them on Facebook\, Instagram\, or Twitter\, and find them online at www.chelmsfordcommunityband.com.
