Payomet Performing Arts Center presents: SARAH & THE TALLBOYS

Saturday, June 1st, 2013 7:30 pm
tickets $18-$30
"Had Johnny Cash and Bonnie Raitt shared DNA, the result would be Sarah Potenza." Kansas City Blues Society Sarah Potenza & the Tall Boys is a Nashville-based Americana band, specializing in original country and soul.  Sarah Potenza's voice is like a Russian nested doll with Bonnie Raitt on the outside and Etta James, Susan Tedeschi and Brittany Howard inside. Potenza has a powerful, natural instrument and the originals they perform suit it well. Potenza is accompanied by her husband and Tall Boys band mate, Ian Crossman, on baritone guitar. Crossman is adept at squeezing different sounds from the rarely-seen instrument and he provides a perfect foil to Potenza's acoustic guitar, sometimes playing riffs, sometimes solos, sometimes bass lines. BUY TICKETS HERE or  call the Payomet box office at 508-487-5400

Sadly, after three great years our hosts retired and the coffee shop closed, but timing was on our side and we moved the whole event into the newly restored Wellfleet Preservation Hall without a hitch.Our new home has performance stage with professional lighting and sound, excellent acoustics, a snack bar with beer and wine, and plenty of room for everyone. The Feed Your Love Open Mic is a tolerant and supportive, diverse, engaging and, most of all, entertaining environment (whew!).

Concert: RICHARD SHINDELL

Thursday, July 18th, 2013 8:00 pm
BUY TICKETS HERE BUY TICKETS HERE An expatriate New Yorker now living in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Richard Shindell is a meticulous craftsman of song whose six studio albums and one live recording have been revered by critics and fans alike. Innovative, original and occasionally spiritual, Shindell’s songs weave tales that interchangeably champion the downtrodden, exalt the disaffected or wax empathetic to those lost to society’s fringes. From his first record, Sparrow’s Point (1992) to the newest album South of Delia (2007), Shindell has demonstrated a penchant for songwriting at once passionate and profound.  Shindell’s songwriting is truly eclectic, ranging from lighthearted ballads and adulterous love songs, to dirges and diatribes that skillfully skewer politics, prejudice, war, and religion. He has a unique ability to morph into the soul of the many and varied personalities he casts as narrators in certain songs — songs that are veritable novellas framed in haunting acoustic melodies. Richard has spent many summer days in Wellfleet and played to a sold out audience in Wellfleet in 2010.  We are excited to welcome him back!

Concert: MYRA FLYNN

Sunday, July 28th, 2013 8:00 pm
We are excited to present MYRA FLYNN, the first artist of our Bright New Stars series, showcasing young and/or up-and-coming talent from New England and beyond. Vermont & NY based singer/songwriter Myra Flynn spends her career embracing dichotomy. Half Irish and half African American, her original indie/soul/folk songs blend soulful vocals with a lyrical delivery that doesn't let one get too comfortable. As the New England Deli Magazine puts it, "Her vocal influences have as much in common with Ani Difranco and Shawn Colvin as they do with Rihanna and Jill Scott."  She has since shared literal stages with: Ivan Neville, Alexa Ray Joel, Slick Rick, Anais Mitchell, Gregory Douglass and Lee “Scratch” Perry. Crooked Measures, her 2009 debut album, earned Flynn a solid spot in the singer/songwriter circuit as well as much deserved media recognition. She was named "Best Up-and-Coming Performer in Vermont" by Seven Days Newspaper (2010 and 2011) and "New England Artist of the Month" by The Deli Magazine New England. She signed a six-month licensing deal with CBS Records and her original song "Feels Like the Sunshine" was used on the CW television show "The Beautiful Life" (produced by Ashton Kutcher). Flynn’s last album For The Record (2011), was produced by Vermont singer/songwriter Gregory Douglasshe New England Deli Magazine said the new album is crafted with “a self-assured sense of commitment and what seems like another lifetime of reasons to sing.” Tickets TBA - check back soon for details! Check out Myra's music HERE
