48th Annual Newport Navy Choristers "Christmas in Song" Concert
2025-12-07 16:00 | First Baptist Church of Fall River, 228 North Main Street, Fall River, 02720, United States
First Baptist Church will be hosting a Christmas concert in the coming weeks. This concert has always benefitted worthy causes in our community.

This year, the proceeds from the concert will benefit the Branch Community Supper and Homeless Ministries at First Baptist Church. Our feeding ministry is marking the 42nd anniversary of feeding those in need of a meal with no questions asked. In 2026, we expect to serve 13-15,000 meals, if not more.

If you didn’t know, Newport Navy Choristers is a singing group of retired and active-duty members of the United States Navy and have been coming to First Baptist Church for 47 years. This concert will be held at our church on Sunday, December 7th at 4:00 pm.

With the cost of groceries skyrocketing as well as housing costs, we have seen an increase in people showing up on Tuesdays and Thursdays in need of a nutritious meal. Secondly, higher food costs are putting pressure on our annual budget, forcing us to increase our efforts to raise the funds to cover all the costs of this outreach. You can help with our efforts.

We are appreciative of your support for this concert and the ministries of First Baptist Church; “the church that helps people.” We also invite you to join us for this lively performance as it is a perfect segway into the holiday season. We would love to see you there!

Thank you in advance for your support.

“The-supergroup-you-need-to-know” – Rolling Stone
They said it couldn’t be done. Four different songwriters joining forces to form a single band? There was simply no precedent (outside of CSNY, The Beatles, The Traveling Wilburys, The Highwaymen, Monsters of Folk, etc). And yet Fantastic Cat did it anyway, defying the odds and teaming up to record their highly unanticipated 2022 debut, The Very Best Of Fantastic Cat. Hailed by Rolling Stone as “a wildly satisfying collection of folk-rock, country, Americana, and good old rock & roll” that offers “equal doses of Dylan and Springsteen,” the album earned the vocal-trading, instrument-swapping collective their national TV debut, sold-out headline dates around the US and Europe, festival performances everywhere from Sundance to Take Root, and a song in the Showtime series Tulsa King. In 2023, the unlikely four-piece teamed up with all-star producer Butch Walker for a 50th anniversary take on Wings’ “Band on the Run,” which prompted event more love from Rolling Stone, who dubbed them “the Harlem Globetrotters of Americana.”
Individually, each member of Fantastic Cat boasts their own impressive resume along with a litany of critical acclaim. Paste declared Don DiLego’s latest album a “stunner.” NPR said Anthony D’Amato “sings and writes in the tradition of Bruce Springsteen or Josh Ritter.” Rolling Stone called Brian Dunne’s new record “the sleeper album of the year” and praised Mike Montali’s band, Hollis Brown, as “the soundtrack for a late-night drive through the American heartland.” Collectively, though, the four transcend their respective roots, emerging as velvet-clad rock and roll cooperative far greater than the sum of its parts.
They say some cats are born fantastic; others have fantasy thrust upon them. These guys are somewhere in the middle.

Doors 7pm | Show 8pm
Donna The Buffalo is not just a band, rather one might say that Donna The Buffalo has become a lifestyle for its members and audiences. Since 1989, the roots rockers have played thousands of shows and countless festivals including Bonnaroo, Newport Folk Festival, Telluride, Austin City Limits Festival, Merle Fest, and Philadelphia Folk Festival.
They’ve opened for The Dead and have toured with Peter Rowan, Del McCoury, Los Lobos, Little Feat, Jim Lauderdale, Rusted Root, and Railroad Earth to name a few. They also toured with Ben & Jerry’s co-founder Ben Cohen to help raise awareness about increased corporate spending in politics.
In 1991, the band started the Finger Lakes Grassroots Festival in Trumansburg, NY. The four day festival has become an annual destination for over 15,000 music lovers every year and was started as an AIDS benefit. It continues as a benefit for arts and education. To date, the event has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars and is now one of three Grassroots Festivals; the Bi-annual Shakori Hills fest in North Carolina and Virginia Key festival in Florida. In 2016 GrassRoots Culture Camp was introduced in Trumansburg, New York as four days of music, art, dance and movement workshops, including nightly dinners and dances.
